[PATCH] sched/deadline: runtime overrun and deadline miss signals

From: Claudio Scordino
Date: Tue Oct 31 2017 - 08:28:52 EST


From: Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch adds the possibility to get the delivery of two signals
whenever there is a runtime overrun or a deadline miss, respectively.
The request is done through the sched_flags field within the sched_attr
structure.

Forward port of https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/10/16/170
