In the L4-X2 (revision 7) reference manual as well as in the function
definition, the "time slice" is the second parameter, while the "total
quantum" is the third parameter. However, it appears that adjusting the
second parameter affects the "total quantum", rather than the time slice,
and likewise adjusting the third parameter affects the "time slice", rather
than the total quantum. This is observation is based on thread behavior as
well as information given by the kernel debugger (option 't'). So is this a
bug or is it that I just don't understand how this works?
