Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.24-11+deb9u1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Please update sched.h and linux/sched.h to provide access to
sched_setattr, sched_getattr and SCHED_DEADLINE which have been part of
the kernel since 3.14.

Have installed the RT PREEMPT kernel and the headers are still missing
the definitions.

The man pages have been updated with these functions and defines but not
the headers.

It might affect your usage of the libc, but I doubt it this issue " has
a major effect on the usability of a package, without rendering it
completely unusable to everyone."

Dear Maintainer,

Please update sched.h and linux/sched.h to provide access to
sched_setattr, sched_getattr and SCHED_DEADLINE which have been part of

linux/sched.h is not part of libc6-dev but of the linux-libc-dev. It
already provides SCHED_DEADLINE. The value will be added to sched.h in
glibc 2.26.

Have installed the RT PREEMPT kernel and the headers are still missing
the definitions.

The man pages have been updated with these functions and defines but not
the headers.

The man pages do not define the *functions*, but the *syscalls*. So far
nobody has submitted patches to add the corresponding functions to the
libc.
