+Scheduler monitors collection
+-----------------------------
+
+:Manual section: 1
+
+SYNOPSIS
+========
+
+**rv mon sched** [*OPTIONS*]
+
+**rv mon <NESTED_MONITOR>** [*OPTIONS*]
+
+**rv mon sched:<NESTED_MONITOR>** [*OPTIONS*]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+The scheduler monitor collection is a container for several monitors to model
+the behaviour of the scheduler. Each monitor describes a specification that
+the scheduler should follow.
+
+As a monitor container, it will enable all nested monitors and set them
+according to OPTIONS.
+Nevertheless nested monitors can also be activated independently both by name
+and by specifying sched: , e.g. to enable only monitor tss you can do any of:
+
+ # rv mon sched:tss
+
+ # rv mon tss
+
+See kernel documentation for further information about this monitor:
+<https://docs.kernel.org/trace/rv/monitor_sched.html>
+

+
+NESTED MONITOR
+==============
+
+The available nested monitors are:
+ * scpd: schedule called with preemption disabled
+ * snep: schedule does not enable preempt
+ * sncid: schedule not called with interrupt disabled
+ * snroc: set non runnable on its own context
+ * sco: scheduling context operations
+ * tss: task switch while scheduling
