PTHREAD_ATTR_GETSCHEDPARAM(3C) Standard C Library Functions PTHREAD_ATTR_GETSCHEDPARAM(3C)

pthread_attr_getschedparam, pthread_attr_setschedparam - get or set schedparam attribute

cc -mt [ flag... ] file... -lpthread [ library... ]
#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_attr_getschedparam(const pthread_attr_t *restrict attr,


     struct sched_param *restrict param);

int pthread_attr_setschedparam(pthread_attr_t *restrict attr,


     const struct sched_param *restrict param);

The functions pthread_attr_setschedparam() and pthread_attr_getschedparam(), respectively, set and get the scheduling parameter attributes in the attr argument. The contents of the param structure are defined in <sched.h>. The only required member of param is sched_priority.

If successful, the pthread_attr_setschedparam() and pthread_attr_getschedparam() functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.

The pthread_attr_setschedparam() function may fail if:

EINVAL

attr is invalid.

The pthread_attr_getschedparam() function may fail if:

EINVAL

attr or param is invalid.

After these attributes have been set, a thread can be created with the specified attributes using pthread_create(). Using these routines does not affect the current running thread.

See attributes(7) for descriptions of the following attributes:
