SYNOPSIS


.In pthread.h int pthread_setschedparam "pthread_t thread" "int policy" "const struct sched_param *param" int pthread_getschedparam "pthread_t thread" "int *policy" "struct sched_param *param"

DESCRIPTION

The pthread_setschedparam and pthread_getschedparam functions set and get the scheduling parameters of individual threads. The scheduling policy for a thread can either be SCHED_FIFO (first in, first out) or SCHED_RR (round-robin). The thread priority (accessed via param->sched_priority) must be at least PTHREAD_MIN_PRIORITY and no more than PTHREAD_MAX_PRIORITY.

RETURN VALUES

If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS

The pthread_setschedparam function will fail if:
[EINVAL]
Invalid value for policy.
[ENOTSUP]
Invalid value for scheduling parameters.
[ESRCH]
Non-existent thread thread.

The pthread_getschedparam function will fail if:

[ESRCH]
Non-existent thread thread.

STANDARDS

The pthread_setschedparam and pthread_getschedparam functions conform to -susv2
