SCHED_SETSCHEDULER_N(9)                   Driver Basics                   SCHED_SETSCHEDULER_N(9)



NAME
       sched_setscheduler_nocheck - change the scheduling policy and/or RT priority of a thread
       from kernelspace.

SYNOPSIS
       int sched_setscheduler_nocheck(struct task_struct * p, int policy,
                                      const struct sched_param * param);

ARGUMENTS
       p
           the task in question.

       policy
           new policy.

       param
           structure containing the new RT priority.

DESCRIPTION
       Just like sched_setscheduler, only don't bother checking if the current context has
       permission. For example, this is needed in stop_machine: we create temporary high priority
       worker threads, but our caller might not have that capability.

RETURN
       0 on success. An error code otherwise.
