cpu_get_current(3)					     Library Functions Manual						cpu_get_current(3)

NAME

       cpu_get_current - Return the caller's current CPU ID (libc library)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cpuset.h>

       cpuid_t cpu_get_current(
	       void );

PARAMETERS

       The cpu_get_current() function has no parameters.

DESCRIPTION

       The cpu_get_current() function fetches the ID of the CPU on which the caller is executing.

NOTES

       This function is similar to the following call:

       getsysinfo(GSI_CPU_CURRENT, &cpuid, ...);

       However,  cpu_get_current() returns the CPU identifier directly (as type cpuid_t), whereas the getsysinfo() call stores the identifier into
       a buffer (as type long) whose address is passed to the function.

RESTRICTIONS

       As is true for many system information queries, the data returned by cpu_get_current() may be stale by the time it is returned to  or  used
       by the caller. In other words, a context switch to a different CPU can occur after the "current CPU" has been fetched by the application.

RETURN VALUES

       The  cpu_get_current()  function returns the CPU ID of the processor where the caller is executing. This function always completes success-
       fully.

ERRORS

       None.
