By default, the Linux kernel build used in the many open source distributions is the normal/default kernel which doesn’t support real time scheduling. If an embedded developer wants to compare the scheduling policies of Linux to a real time operating system it is more useful to compare RTOS performance to a version of Linux that does have real-time features.
Fortunately, in addition to this default kernel, there is also available a Real-time kernel version that supports a real-time scheduling policy. In this article and in the code examples that are included, an effort is made to compare the real time operations of standard and real-time Linux with normal RTOS operation and evaluate the differences and similarities.
