.TH CHRT 1 "January 2016" "util-linux" "User Commands"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
chrt \- manipulate the real-time attributes of a process
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B chrt
|
|
[options]
|
|
.IR priority\ command\ [ argument ...]
|
|
.br
|
|
.B chrt
|
|
[options]
|
|
.B \-p
|
|
.RI [ priority ]\ pid
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
.B chrt
|
|
sets or retrieves the real-time scheduling attributes of an existing \fIpid\fR,
|
|
or runs \fIcommand\fR with the given attributes.
|
|
|
|
.SH POLICIES
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-other\fR
|
|
Set scheduling policy to
|
|
.BR SCHED_OTHER .
|
|
This is the default Linux scheduling policy.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-fifo\fR
|
|
Set scheduling policy to \fBSCHED_FIFO\fR.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-rr\fR
|
|
Set scheduling policy to
|
|
.BR SCHED_RR .
|
|
When no policy is defined, the
|
|
.B SCHED_RR
|
|
is used as the default.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-b\fR, \fB\-\-batch\fR
|
|
Set scheduling policy to
|
|
.B SCHED_BATCH
|
|
(Linux-specific, supported since 2.6.16). The priority argument has to be set to zero.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-idle\fR
|
|
Set scheduling policy to
|
|
.B SCHED_IDLE
|
|
(Linux-specific, supported since 2.6.23). The priority argument has to be set to zero.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR -d ,\ --deadline
|
|
Set scheduling policy to
|
|
.BR SCHED_DEADLINE
|
|
(Linux-specific, supported since 3.14). The priority argument has to be set to zero.
|
|
See also \fB\-\-sched\-runtime\fR, \fB\-\-sched\-deadline\fR and
|
|
\fB\-\-sched\-period\fR. The relation between the options required by the kernel is
|
|
runtime <= deadline <= period.
|
|
.B chrt
|
|
copies \fIperiod\fR to \fIdeadline\fR if \fB\-\-sched\-deadline\fR is not specified and
|
|
\fIdeadline\fR to \fIruntime\fR if \fB\-\-sched\-runtime\fR is not specified.
|
|
It means that at least \fB\-\-sched\-period\fR has to be specified. See
|
|
.BR sched (7)
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
.SH "SCHEDULING OPTIONS"
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-T\fR, \fB\-\-sched\-runtime\fR \fInanoseconds\fR
|
|
Specifies runtime parameter for SCHED_DEADLINE policy (Linux-specific).
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-P\fR, \fB\-\-sched\-period\fR \fInanoseconds\fR
|
|
Specifies period parameter for SCHED_DEADLINE policy (Linux-specific).
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-D\fR, \fB\-\-sched\-deadline\fR \fInanoseconds\fR
|
|
Specifies deadline parameter for SCHED_DEADLINE policy (Linux-specific).
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fB\-R\fR, \fB\-\-reset-on-fork\fR
|
|
Add
|
|
.B SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK
|
|
flag to the
|
|
.B SCHED_FIFO
|
|
or
|
|
.B SCHED_RR
|
|
scheduling policy (Linux-specific, supported since 2.6.31).
|
|
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR -a ,\ --all-tasks

|
|
given PID.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR -m ,\ --max
|
|
Show minimum and maximum valid priorities, then exit.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR -p ,\ --pid
|
|
Operate on an existing PID and do not launch a new task.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR -v ,\ --verbose
|
|
Show status information.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BR -V ,\ --version

.TP
|
|
.BR -h ,\ --help
|

|
|
.SH USAGE
|
|
.TP
|
|
The default behavior is to run a new command:
|
|
.B chrt
|
|
.I priority
|
|
.IR command\ [ arguments ]
|
|
.TP
|
|
You can also retrieve the real-time attributes of an existing task:
|
|
.B chrt \-p
|
|
.I pid
|
|
.TP
|
|
Or set them:
|
|
.B chrt \-r \-p
|
|
.I priority pid
|
|
.SH PERMISSIONS
|
|
A user must possess
|
|
.BR CAP_SYS_NICE
|
|
to change the scheduling attributes of a process. Any user can retrieve the
|
|
scheduling information.
|
|
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
Only
|
|
.BR SCHED_FIFO ,
|
|
.BR SCHED_OTHER
|
|
and
|
|
.BR SCHED_RR
|
|
are part of POSIX 1003.1b Process Scheduling. The other scheduling attributes
|
|
may be ignored on some systems.
|
|
.P
|
|
Linux' default scheduling policy is
|
|
.BR SCHED_OTHER .
