NAME


chrt - manipulate the real-time attributes of a process

SYNOPSIS


chrt [options] priority command [argument...]
chrt [options] -p [priority] pid

DESCRIPTION


chrt sets or retrieves the real-time scheduling attributes of an existing pid, or runs
command with the given attributes. Both the policy (one of SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_FIFO,
SCHED_RR, SCHED_BATCH, or SCHED_IDLE) and the priority can be set and retrieved.

The SCHED_BATCH policy is supported since Linux 2.6.16. The SCHED_IDLE policy is
supported since Linux 2.6.23.

The SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag for policies SCHED_RR and SCHED_FIFO is supported since Linux
2.6.31.

OPTIONS


-a, --all-tasks
Set or retrieve the scheduling attributes of all the tasks (threads) for a given
PID.

-b, --batch
Set scheduling policy to SCHED_BATCH (Linux-specific). The priority argument has to
be set to zero.

-f, --fifo
Set scheduling policy to SCHED_FIFO.

-i, --idle
Set scheduling policy to SCHED_IDLE (Linux-specific). The priority argument has to
be set to zero.

-m, --max
Show minimum and maximum valid priorities, then exit.

-o, --other
Set policy scheduling policy to SCHED_OTHER.

-p, --pid
Operate on an existing PID and do not launch a new task.

-R, --reset-on-fork
Add SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag to the SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR scheduling policy
(Linux-specific).

-r, --rr
Set scheduling policy to SCHED_RR. When policy is not defined the SCHED_RR is used
as default.

-v, --verbose
Show status information.

-V, --version
Display version information and exit.

-h, --help
Display help text and exit.

USAGE


The default behavior is to run a new command:
chrt priority command [arguments]

You can also retrieve the real-time attributes of an existing task:
chrt -p pid

Or set them:
chrt -r -p priority pid

PERMISSIONS


A user must possess CAP_SYS_NICE to change the scheduling attributes of a process. Any
user can retrieve the scheduling information.

NOTES


Only SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_OTHER and SCHED_RR are part of POSIX 1003.1b Process Scheduling.
The other scheduling attributes may be ignored on some systems.

Linux default scheduling policy is SCHED_OTHER.
