It's a simple factor 2: #define MACH_PRIORITY_TO_NICE(prio) (2 * ((prio) - 12)) #define NICE_TO_MACH_PRIORITY(nice) (12 + ((nice) / 2)) > In fact, > if you could track 64 niceness levels, and just have every pair of > niceness levels map to the kernel priorities, then you would be > POSIX-compliant (POSIX doesn't require that niceness level 0 and 1 have > any difference in scheduling, only that you can have niceness levels > between 0 and 2*NZERO-1). Right, but that'd means that libc has to remember all priorities, to be able to return them, including other processes (it's not only about nice, but also get/setpriority). OTOH, we could as well extend mach's priorities to 40 levels and change the mappping. The only issue with that is that when using a patched libc (using >32 priority values) with a non-patched kernel (refusing them), some nice values will be refused by kernel. Maybe we can consider it's not a problem that people have to upgrade their kernel to fix it. Samuel

Apar= t > from that, the nice tool works fine. Could you disable that test on > hurd-i386? What is the mapping between the kernel's 32 levels and the POSIX-mandated minimum of 40 niceness levels (that is, which niceness levels are rounded to a neighbor)? Can we rewrite the test to use just niceness levels provided by Hurd? Would it be any simpler if Hurd were to define NZERO as 32, and provide only even niceness values? In fact, if you could track 64 niceness levels, and just have every pair of niceness levels map to the kernel priorities, then you would be POSIX-compliant (POSIX doesn't require that niceness level 0 and 1 have any difference in scheduling, only that you can have niceness levels between 0 and 2*NZERO-1). In other words, I'm proposing: NZERO=3D32 Niceness Kernel priority -32 0 -31 0 -30 1 -29 1 =2E.. 0 16 1 16 2 17 =2E.. 29 30 30 31 31 31 (assuming kernel priority is like niceness, where a lower number is higher priority) If you make that fix to Hurd, then the mapping will just work, and coreutils will start passing the test. --=20 Eric Blake eblake@HIDDEN +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --------------enigC7C6E8C412CD3027E0D59368 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJPqWvQAAoJEKeha0olJ0NqTHAH/jiNEnL/F98/iXbb5Z+NUUO8 atxyG/Qh8I5r9aQg5535DQvba0Ih6FVCoWh0W0FArwe6WfO0KtoedxblAVs79BbX WNZvsHJUzCCbFITsWhZy5fKERA8xl+ikEw/ygPfl76c/yt+JhVYIF0ff9M8FVI6d W2eQgEk+pFOXhXgB+DOB2jJhUwuNjFLZCUP7VMdEZBqiafbgYNz3EzzXXf/GtQdM Gyin3RgS10TsplLnOIHrRdSaHxrjKq+ERCU6FFRAcrQqZw3eJ6fFIP3c594gqSeU O1yN0gIkLURdpissIpN2annC61I9KkRJbWAzsOQJYeBUGA6RPcFaRXEKkSsicp0= =0RfS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigC7C6E8C412CD3027E0D59368--

Apart from that, the nice tool works fine. Could you disable that test on hurd-i386? Samuel
