48 * Returns 1 if p2 is "better" than p1
50 * The algorithm for picking the "interesting" process is thus:
52 * 1) Only foreground processes are eligible - implied.
53 * 2) Runnable processes are favored over anything else. The runner
54 * with the highest CPU utilization is picked (p_pctcpu). Ties are
55 * broken by picking the highest pid.
56 * 3) The sleeper with the shortest sleep time is next. With ties,
57 * we pick out just "short-term" sleepers (P_SINTR == 0).
58 * 4) Further ties are broken by picking the highest pid.
60 * If you change this, be sure to consider making the change in the kernel
61 * too (^T in kern/tty.c).
63 * TODO - consider whether pctcpu should be used.
