PTHREAD_ATTR(3) 					   BSD Library Functions Manual 					   PTHREAD_ATTR(3)

NAME
pthread_attr_getschedparam, pthread_attr_setschedparam -- thread attribute operations SYNOPSIS
#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); DESCRIPTION
Thread attributes are used to specify parameters to pthread_create(). One attribute object can be used in multiple calls to pthread_create(), with or without modifications between calls. pthread_attr_getschedparam() and pthread_attr_setschedparam() get and set the scheduling parameters within the attr argument. See /usr/include/sched.h for the definition of struct sched_param. The sched_priority field of struct sched_param can be set to SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR. RETURN VALUES
If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error. pthread_attr_getschedparam(), on success, will copy the value of the thread's scheduling parameter attribute to the location pointed to by the second function parameter. ERRORS
pthread_attr_getschedparam() will fail if: [EINVAL] Invalid value for attr. pthread_attr_setschedparam() will fail if: [EINVAL] Invalid value for attr. [ENOTSUP] Invalid value for param. SEE ALSO
pthread_create(3), pthread_attr_init(3), pthread_attr_setinheritsched(3) STANDARDS
pthread_attr_setschedparam(), pthread_attr_getschedparam() conform to Version 2 of the Single UNIX Specification (``SUSv2'') BSD

NAME
pthread_attr_getschedparam, pthread_attr_setschedparam - get or set schedparam attribute SYNOPSIS
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); DESCRIPTION
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. RETURN VALUES
If successful, the pthread_attr_setschedparam() and pthread_attr_getschedparam() functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error. ERRORS
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. USAGE
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. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Committed | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |MT-Level |MT-Safe | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Standard |See standards(5). | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
