adjusting timeslice in sched.c of linux kernel

[Filip Iliescu <djpriya@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am trying to simple change the timeslice variable in the PCB block  
of a process found in the typedef struct task_t by implementing a  
system call.
Are there any race conditions or reasons I should synchronize this  
variable before I alter this timeslice? Are there any reasons it  
would fail?

thanks
