A question about rtirq

Post by windowsrefund »

Kernel: 4.18.0-12-lowlatency

Running /etc/init.d/rtirq status shows many devices are using RT priority

Code: Select all

$ /etc/init.d/rtirq status

  PID CLS RTPRIO  NI PRI %CPU STAT COMMAND	
  583 FF      90   - 130  0.0 S    irq/132-snd_hda

I'm wondering if I want anything other than my sound card using RT threads at all?

Same for me. If you use the rtirq script from Rui (comes with KXStudio) the RT priorities are set automatically after rebooting ASFAIK.

Code: Select all

  PID CLS RTPRIO  NI PRI %CPU STAT COMMAND	
  311 FF      90   - 130  0.0 S    irq/31-snd_hda_	
  325 FF      90   - 130  0.0 S    irq/33-snd_hda_	
  132 FF      85   - 125  0.0 S    irq/16-ehci_hcd	
  150 FF      85   - 125  1.9 S    irq/27-xhci_hcd	
  151 FF      84   - 124  0.0 S    irq/29-xhci_hcd	
  169 FF      84   - 124  0.0 S    irq/23-ehci_hcd	
   77 FF      80   - 120  0.0 S    irq/1-i8042	
   76 FF      79   - 119  0.0 S    irq/12-i8042
