priocntlset(2)							System Calls Manual						    priocntlset(2)

NAME

       priocntlset - change scheduling property of a process or set of processes

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/procset.h> #include <sys/priocntl.h> #include <sys/rtpriocntl.h> #include <sys/tspriocntl.h>

       int priocntlset(
	       procset_t *psp,
	       int cmd,
	       void *arg );

PARAMETERS

       Specifies  a pointer to a structure.  The type of structure depends on the value you select for the cmd parameter.  Specifies the functions
       to be performed.  Specifies a pointer to a procset structure.

DESCRIPTION

       This function is used to change the scheduling properties of a running process or group of processes.  While the priocntl(2) function  per-
       forms the same tasks, this function enables you to specify the process or set of processes that will change in a less complicated manner.

       How  the  process  changes depends on the value you select for the cmd parameter.  The value of the arg parameter is dependent on the value
       you select for the cmd parameter.  See the priocntl function for detailed information on these parameters.

       The psp parameter enables you to identify the process or set of processes that is to be affected by this call.  This parameter points to  a
       procset.h  structure  which  defines  the selection process. In the <sys/procset.h>, a setprocset macro is defined that displays a means of
       initializing the procset structure. For more information on this structure, see the procset(4) reference page.

RETURN VALUE

       This system call returns the same values as the priocntl function.

ERRORS

       This system call returns the same errors as priocntl function.
