The branch main has been updated by olce: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=2198221bd9df0ceb69945120bc477309a5729241 commit 2198221bd9df0ceb69945120bc477309a5729241 Author: Florian Walpen <dev@submerge.ch> AuthorDate: 2024-02-14 13:50:44 +0000 Commit: Olivier Certner <olce@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2024-02-14 14:24:11 +0000 sched_setscheduler(2): Change realtime privilege check Check for privilege PRIV_SCHED_SETPOLICY instead of PRIV_SCHED_SET, to at least make it coherent with what is done at thread creation when a realtime policy is requested, and have users authorized by mac_priority(4) pass it. This change is good enough in practice since it only allows 'root' (as before) and mac_priority(4)'s authorized users in (the point of this change), without other side effects. More changes in this area, to generally ensure that all privilege checks are consistent, are going to come as olce's priority revamp project lands. (olce: Expanded the explanations.)
