Hi I'm off for the holidays and answering from my phone. My suspicion is that the pthread command is an alias for the tasks command. Thus it is not reporting the priority from the view of the POSIX API but from the view of the Classic API. Internally all threads and tasks are instances of SuperCore threads and the priorities are mapped to what is required by the API.
Priority 1 in Classic API is 254 in POSIX. Please investigate the code for the pthread command and see if I am right. This would be a minor bug in the shell rather than a priority inversion issue. --joel On Fri, Dec 28, 2018, 1:21 AM JunBeom Kim (EmbedCoreTech) < jb...@e-coretech.kr wrote: > Dear Mr. Koo. > > > > There is not any relationship between main thread and pthread1/2/3. > > Main thread is run on core 1 of Cortex-A9. > > Pthread1/2/3 threads is run on core 2 of Cortex-A9. > > That is, both main thread and pthread1/2/3 is run on each cores > independently. > > Also, I used manual affinity using pthread_setaffinity_np(). > > > > Pthread1/2/3 is created by main thread. > > and, actual operation is using Qt Thread API.
