idler.c

[lhffan]

I have created a idler

Code:

cd /srcds

Code:

nano idler.c

pasted this inside:

Code:

int main() {
  while(1);
}

then i run:

Code:

gcc idler.c -o idler

Putted this in /etc/crontab

Code:

@reboot /usr/local/sbin/idler.sh

Idler.sh inneholds:

Code:

/bin/sh
# Start the idler
cd /srcds
nice ./idler &

To check if it runs

Code:

ps -A

Get this error msg:

Code:

2374 ?        00:00:00 idler.sh <defunct>
2375 ?        00:25:52 idler

So it seems to work atleast halfway. There is a idler there that not work. When i tryes to check with chrt and the correct pid i get this

The working one:

Code:

pid 2375's current scheduling policy: SCHED_OTHER
pid 2375's current scheduling priority: 0

So whats wrong. Is that the correct priority and why does i have two of them?

Code:

cat /var/log/messages /var/log/syslog | grep idler

Gives me:

Code:
