Time constraint real-time threads

Hi,

I'm trying to create real-time threads via the THREAD_TIME_CONSTRAINT_POLICY.
It works fine, an interrupt after each computation cycle can be seen inside the profiler (Instruments / System Trace) but the constraint seems to be ignored.

I would expect a penalty after the constraint time is over but the thread stays on the CPU starving other threads.

That's the way I initialize the time constraint policy:

    thread_time_constraint_policy_data_t time_constraints;

    time_constraints.period = (int) NanosecondsToAbsolute (1000000); // 1 ms 

    time_constraints.computation = (int) NanosecondsToAbsolute (250000); // 0.25 ms

    time_constraints.constraint = (int) NanosecondsToAbsolute(500000); // 0.5 ms

    time_constraints.preemptible = 1;

    thread_policy_set(mach_thread_self (), THREAD_TIME_CONSTRAINT_POLICY, (thread_policy_t) &time_constraints, THREAD_TIME_CONSTRAINT_POLICY_COUNT);


Any ideas how to get the constraint working?

Regards,
Julian
