Show or change the real-time scheduling attributes of a process.
Set policy:
chrt [options] [<priority>] <command> [<argument>...]
chrt --pid <policy-option> [options] [<priority>] <PID>
Get policy:
chrt --pid <PID>
Policy options:
-b, --batch set policy to SCHED_BATCH
-d, --deadline set policy to SCHED_DEADLINE
-e, --ext set policy to SCHED_EXT
-f, --fifo set policy to SCHED_FIFO
-i, --idle set policy to SCHED_IDLE
-o, --other set policy to SCHED_OTHER
-r, --rr set policy to SCHED_RR (default)
Scheduling options:
-R, --reset-on-fork set reset-on-fork flag
-T, --sched-runtime <ns> runtime parameter for DEADLINE
-P, --sched-period <ns> period parameter for DEADLINE
-D, --sched-deadline <ns> deadline parameter for DEADLINE
Other options:
-a, --all-tasks operate on all the tasks (threads) for a given pid
-m, --max show min and max valid priorities
-p, --pid operate on existing given pid
-v, --verbose display status information
-h, --help display this help
-V, --version display version
For more details see chrt(1).
Options (17)
| Option | Description | Source |
|---|
-b, --batch | Set scheduling policy to SCHED_BATCH (scheduling batch processes). | help + man |
-d, --deadline | Set scheduling policy to SCHED_DEADLINE (sporadic task model deadline scheduling). | help + man |
-e, --ext | Set scheduling policy to SCHED_EXT (BPF program-defined scheduling). | help + man |
-f, --fifo | Set scheduling policy to SCHED_FIFO (first in-first out). | help + man |
-i, --idle | Set scheduling policy to SCHED_IDLE (scheduling very low priority jobs). | help + man |
-o, --other | Set scheduling policy to SCHED_OTHER (time-sharing scheduling). | help + man |
-r, --rr | Set scheduling policy to SCHED_RR (round-robin scheduling). | help + man |
-R, --reset-on-fork | Use SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK or SCHED_FLAG_RESET_ON_FORK flag. | help + man |
-T, --sched-runtime ns | Specifies runtime parameter for SCHED_DEADLINE and custom slice length for SCHED_OTHER and SCHED_BATCH policies (Linux-specific). | help + man |
-P, --sched-period ns | Specifies period parameter for SCHED_DEADLINE policy (Linux-specific). | help + man |
-a, --all-tasks | Set or retrieve the scheduling attributes of all the tasks (threads) for a given PID. | help + man |
-m, --max | Show minimum and maximum valid priorities, then exit. | help + man |
-p, --pid | Operate on an existing PID and do not launch a new task. | help + man |
-v, --verbose | display status information | help + man |
-h, --help | Display help text and exit. | help + man |
-V, --version | Display version and exit. | help + man |
-D, --sched-deadline nanoseconds | Specifies deadline parameter for SCHED_DEADLINE policy (Linux-specific). (in the manual page but not in --help) | man |
