Answer is NO, as ART is dependent on changes on the various other things (systems) like libcore.

In short bring you your platform to the level of KITKAT in place of spending efforts here.

It appears that Locale.java in master (https://android.googlesource.com/platform/libcore/+/master/luni/src/main/java/java/util/Locale.java) now supports BCP-47, including script names. Does this mean that with the next Android version ("L"?) I will be able to create and use locales like "bs_Latn_BA" or "bs_Cyrl_BA"?

I am currently running KitKat and I don't see a system property that will persist the script part of the locale name. We have just:
/data/property/persist.sys.country
/data/property/persist.sys.language

I have tried to set the language property to include the script part (setprop persist.sys.language bs_Cyrl), and the value gets stored, but the script part is apparently ignored. If I set the language to bs_Cyrl and the country to BA, I get my dates/times/numbers etc. formatted with Latin values, not Cyrillic (bs_Latn_BA).

Am I correct in concluding that KitKat does not support locale names that include script parts, but that L will (might)? And that it will presumably have a new persistent property that will store the script?

We using C++ in the media layer and we want to raise the priority of our _AUDIO PROCESSING_ thread, to make sure the audio works well even the CPU is high (totally %98 on an slow Phone).

I have searched on google and find to use _setpriority( PRIO_PROCESS, 0, priority); but _setpriority function is change the process priority instead of the thread.

I know there is Java API to do that, but we need an C++ API. So does there any way to raise an single thread priority from C++ code?
