How can I avoid priority inversion in my system?

To avoid priority inversion, you can implement priority inheritance protocols or use priority ceiling protocols.

What is priority inheritance?

Priority inheritance is a technique where a lower-priority task temporarily inherits the priority of a higher-priority task it is blocking.

Are there any drawbacks to using priority inheritance?

Yes, it can lead to increased complexity and potential for priority inversion if not managed properly.

What is priority ceiling protocol?

Priority ceiling protocol prevents priority inversion by assigning a ceiling priority to resources, ensuring higher-priority tasks can access them.
