Round Robing Scheduling Test ======================== This application is a simple test case for round-robin scheduling. Two threads are started with the same priority. The first thread is a busy loop and is started first. The second thread unlocks a mutex allowing the main thread to continue and exit. Without Round Robin scheduling the busy loop thread would run indefinitely, with round-robin in eventually getting de-scheduled allowing the main thread to run and exit. Usage ===== By default `sched_round_robin` is included: `make tests/sys_sched_round_robin flash term` ``` ...Board Initialisation... Help: Press s to start test, r to print it is ready s START main(): This is RIOT! (Version: ...) starting threads double locking mutex mutex_thread yield bad thread looping unlock mutex [SUCCESS] ``` It can be excluded from the build by setting the command-line argument `NORR=1`: `NORR=1 make tests/sys_sched_round_robin flash term` ``` ...Board Initialisation... Help: Press s to start test, r to print it is ready s START main(): This is RIOT! (Version: ...) starting threads double locking mutex mutex_thread yield bad thread looping ``` This will loop endlessly as the bad thread does not release the CPU, `make test` will timeout in that case.
