/**
 * @file sched.h
 *
 * A basic scheduler inspired from the O(1) Linux scheduler. Supports
 * 2 classes of thread priorities:
 *  - so-called 'real-time' threads scheduled according to a simple
 *    traditional static priority real-time scheduler. "Real-time" round
 *    robin scheduling is not supported.
 * - "fair" time-sharing scheduling for non real-time threads. "fair"
 *    because no starvation among the non real-time threads is
 *    possible. Contrary to the original O(1) Linux scheduler, the
 *    on-line adjustment of the scheduling priorities to cope with
 *    interactive/non interactive threads discrimination is not
 *    supported: threads keep having the same priority as long as the
 *    user does not change it.
 *
 * The functions below manage CPU queues, and are NEVER responsible
 * for context switches (see thread.h for that) or synchronizations
 * (see kwaitq.h or the higher levels primitives [mutex, semaphore,
 * ...] for that).
 *
 * @note IMPORTANT: all the functions below are meant to be called
 * ONLY by the thread/timer/kwaitq subsystems. DO NOT use them
 * directly from anywhere else: use ONLY the thread/kwaitq functions!
 * If you still want to call them directly despite this disclaimer,
 * simply disable interrupts before clling them.
