    manual: Document lack of conformance of sched_* functions [BZ #14829]
    
    On Linux, we define _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING, but functions such
    as sched_setparam and sched_setscheduler apply to individual threads,
    not processes.

Comment 2 Carlos O'Donell 2019-11-25 16:10:02 UTC
The Platform Tools glibc team has reviewed this bug and decided not to fix this in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. Future versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux will have this fix inherited from upstream glibc.
