What's the advantage of 'rtprio 98' over upstream's recommendation 'rtprio 99'?
That's very simple. At 99 there are some kernel management threads running, like the watchdogs, the ones responsible to move tasks from one CPU to another, etc. Best not to interfere with that.
The packages URL is even more confusing.
Yes the wiki pages are going to need a serious haircut at some point.
What are the below rules good for?
40-realtime-privileges.rules # rw access to /dev/cpu_dma_latency to prevent CPUs from going into idle state
This one is quite clear, no? Not available on all CPUs
# rw access to /dev/rtc0 # rw access to /dev/hpet0
AFAIK, these are useless on a modern kernel like ours. I would like to see them removed.. -- Joakim
