I heard rumours some time ago that linux was going to include the posix 4 real
time extensions in the next production release. I've had a quick look, and I've
found some references in the 2.0.x code to real time scheduling policies, but
the functions specified in the o'reilly posix 4 book don't seem to exist.

Has linux implemented any of the posix 4 stuff, and particularly the real time
scheduling stuff? If not, is any other real time support provided?
