sys_nice [kernel/sched.c]
Changes priority of the current process. Arguments
eax | 34
ebx | Value to add to the nice value of the current process. (A higher nice value means a low priority.) Only the superuser may specify a negative increment, or priority increase. The range for nice values is described in sys_getpriority.
Return values If the system call succeeds the return value is the new nice value. If the system call fails the return value is one of the following errno values:
`-EPERM` | `The calling process attempted to increase its priority by supplying a negative value in ebx but has insufficient privileges. ( CAP_SYS_NICE capability is required. (But see the discussion of the RLIMIT_NICE resource limit in sys_setrlimit.)`
