For example: Task runtime deadline period P1 200us 500us 500us This case need enbale HRTICK feature by the next command PC#echo "HRTICK" > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features PC#./schedtool -E -t 200000:500000 -e ./test& PC#trace-cmd record -e sched_switch Some of runtime and deadline run with millisecond level by reading kernershark. The problem is caused by a conditional judgment "delta > 10000". Because no hrtimer start up to control the runtime when runtime is less than 10us. So the process will continue to run until tick-period coming. For fixing this problem, Let delta is equal to 10us when it is less than 10us. So the hrtimer will start up to control the end of process.
