Question

我在主线程中创建了两个线程ThreadA和ThreadB，三个线程具有相同的优先级。调用的顺序是ThreadB前面的ThreadA（我无法理解）。
但是，当增加优先级主线程时，调用顺序是ThreadA前面的ThreadB（我明确指出）。我从手册页得到这条消息如下： A call to sched_setscheduler(2), sched_setparam(2), or sched_setattr(2) will put the SCHED_FIFO (or SCHED_RR) thread identified by pid at the start of the list if it was runnable. As a consequence, it may preempt the currently running thread if it has the same priority. (POSIX.1 specifies that the thread should go to the end of the list.)

代码如下：

/*
 * critical.c
 *
 * compile with  gcc critical.c -o critical -lrt -lpthread
 *
 *  result is aaaaabbbbb when three thread have same priority 
 *  result is bbbbbaaaaa when main thread has higher priority

示例是创建一个优先级为1的FIFO调度的线程：

int retVal;
pthread_attr_t attr;
struct sched_param schedParam;
pthread_t thread;

retVal = pthread_attr_init(&attr);
if (retVal)
{
    fprintf(stderr, "pthread_attr_init error %d\n", retVal);
    exit(1);
}

retVal = pthread_attr_setinheritsched(&attr, PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED);
if (retVal)
{
    fprintf(stderr, "pthread_attr_setinheritsched error %d\n", retVal);
    exit(1);
}

retVal = pthread_attr_setschedpolicy(&attr, SCHED_FIFO);
if (retVal)
{
    fprintf(stderr, "pthread_attr_setschedpolicy error %d\n", retVal);
    exit(1);
}

schedParam.sched_priority = 1;
retVal = pthread_attr_setschedparam(&attr, &schedParam);
if (retVal)
{
    fprintf(stderr, "pthread_attr_setschedparam error %d\n", retVal);
    exit(1);
}

retVal = pthread_create(&thread,
                        &attr,
                        _Thread,
                        NULL);    
if (retVal)
{
    fprintf(stderr, "pthread_create error %d\n", retVal);
    exit(1);
}

如果您的实时优先级软限制过于严格。

在运行代码之前，在shell中调用ulimit -r unlimited。或者直接在您的代码中致电setrlimit(RLIMIT_RTPRIO, ...)。

系统范围限制在/etc/security/limits.conf。

当线程具有相同的优先级时，混淆了SCHED_FIFO策略的theads调度
