Detailed Description

Deterministic Priority SMP Scheduler.

This is an implementation of the global fixed priority scheduler (G-FP). It uses one ready chain per priority to ensure constant time insert operations. The scheduled chain uses linear insert operations and has at most processor count entries. Since the processor and priority count are constants all scheduler operations complete in a bounded execution time.

The thread preempt mode will be ignored.
