.TH PTHREAD_SETSCHEDPARAM 3 LinuxThreads
.XREF pthread_getschedparam
.SH NAME
pthread_setschedparam, pthread_getschedparam \- control thread scheduling parameters
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_setschedparam(pthread_t target_thread, int policy, const struct sched_param *param);
int pthread_getschedparam(pthread_t target_thread, int *policy, struct sched_param *param);
.SH DESCRIPTION
!pthread_setschedparam! sets the scheduling parameters for the thread
|target_thread| as indicated by |policy| and |param|. |policy| can be
either !SCHED_OTHER! (regular, non-realtime scheduling), !SCHED_RR!
(realtime, round-robin) or !SCHED_FIFO! (realtime, first-in
first-out). |param| specifies the scheduling priority for the two
realtime policies. See !sched_setpolicy!(2) for more information on
scheduling policies.
The realtime scheduling policies !SCHED_RR! and !SCHED_FIFO! are
available only to processes with superuser privileges.
!pthread_getschedparam! retrieves the scheduling policy and scheduling
parameters for the thread |target_thread| and store them in the
locations pointed to by |policy| and |param|, respectively.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
!pthread_setschedparam! and !pthread_getschedparam! return 0 on
success and a non-zero error code on error.
.SH ERRORS
On error, !pthread_setschedparam! returns the following error codes:
.RS
.TP
!EINVAL!
|policy| is not one of !SCHED_OTHER!, !SCHED_RR!, !SCHED_FIFO!
.TP
!EINVAL!
the priority value specified by |param| is not valid for the specified policy
.TP
!EPERM!
the calling process does not have superuser permissions
.TP
!ESRCH!
the |target_thread| is invalid or has already terminated
.TP
!EFAULT!
|param| points outside the process memory space
.RE
On error, !pthread_getschedparam! returns the following error codes:
.RS
.TP
!ESRCH!
the |target_thread| is invalid or has already terminated
.TP
!EFAULT!
|policy| or |param| point outside the process memory space
