proc_pid_timerslack_ns(5) File Formats Manual proc_pid_timerslack_ns(5)
/proc/pid/timerslack_ns - timer slack in nanoseconds
/proc/pid/timerslack_ns (since Linux 4.6)
This file exposes the process's "current" timer slack
value, expressed in nanoseconds. The file is writable,
allowing the process's timer slack value to be changed.
Writing 0 to this file resets the "current" timer slack to
the "default" timer slack value. For further details, see
the discussion of PR_SET_TIMERSLACK in prctl(2).
Initially, permission to access this file was governed by
a ptrace access mode PTRACE_MODE_ATTACH_FSCREDS check (see
ptrace(2)). However, this was subsequently deemed too
strict a requirement (and had the side effect that
requiring a process to have the CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability
would also allow it to view and change any process's
memory). Therefore, since Linux 4.9, only the (weaker)
CAP_SYS_NICE capability is required to access this file.
