From ee23871389d51e07380d23887333622fbe7d3dd9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivo Sieben Date: Mon, 3 Jun 2013 12:12:02 +0200 Subject: genirq: Set irq thread to RT priority on creation When a threaded irq handler is installed the irq thread is initially created on normal scheduling priority. Only after the irq thread is woken up it sets its priority to RT_FIFO MAX_USER_RT_PRIO/2 itself. This means that interrupts that occur directly after the irq handler is installed will be handled on a normal scheduling priority instead of the realtime priority that one would expect. Fix this by setting the RT priority on creation of the irq_thread.
