摘要：Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided forscheduling threads in a multiprocessor computer. Embodiments include selecting athread in a ready queue to be dispatched to a processor and determining whether aninterrupt mask flag is set in a thread control block associated with the thread. If theinterrupt mask flag is set in the thread control block associated with the thread,

embodiments typically include selecting a processor, setting a current processor priorityregister of the selected processor to least favored, and dispatching the thread from theready queue to the selected processor. In some embodiments, setting the currentprocessor priority register of the selected processor to least favored is carried out bystoring a value associated with the highest interrupt priority in the current processorpriority register.
