Qualcomm Interview Question
Software Engineer / DevelopersI'm adding couple of lines to the first answer..as he said.. priority inversion is situation where a low priority thread hold the lock that a high priority thread is blocked on, the thread with the low priority will temporarily inherit the priority of the higher priority thread...upon releasing the lock, the thread will revert to its original priority...
Priority inversion is a situation in which a low-priority task executes while a higher priority task waits on it due to resource contentions.
