//
// = DESCRIPTION
//      This is a simple test to illustrate OS thread preemption.  One
//      ore more high priority threads periodically (every half
//      second, by default) reads the clock.  They use select () to
//      block for that duration.  Meanwhile, a low priority thread
//      continually chews up the CPU.  Without preemption, the high
//      priority thread won't have a chance to read the clock in a
//      timely manner.
//
//      At the end of the test, the actual clock read intervals by the
//      high priority task(s) are printed out.  With proper
//      preemption, the intervals should correspond to the requested
//      clock read interval.
//
//      There is a -y option for the low priority thread to periodically
//      yield.  It shouldn't be necessary to use that option, if preemption
//      is supported.  It's a handy option for testing.
