From 59f8c2989283bbd3df9fcfb22494d84f4852e536 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tommaso Cucinotta Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2016 11:17:17 +0200 Subject: sched/deadline: Show leftover runtime and abs deadline in /proc/*/sched This patch allows for reading the current (leftover) runtime and absolute deadline of a SCHED_DEADLINE task through /proc/*/sched (entries dl.runtime and dl.deadline), while debugging/testing.
