lgrp_home

lgrp_home(3LGRP)					 Locality Group Library Functions					  lgrp_home(3LGRP)

NAME

       lgrp_home - get home lgroup

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -llgrp [ library... ]
       #include <sys/lgrp_user.h>

       lgrp_id_t lgrp_home(idtype_t idtype, id_t id);

DESCRIPTION

       The lgrp_home() function returns the ID of the home lgroup for the given process or thread.  A thread can have an affinity for an lgroup in
       the system such that the thread will tend to be scheduled to run on that lgroup and allocate memory  from  there  whenever  possible.   The
       lgroup  with  the strongest affinity that the thread can run on is known as the "home lgroup" of the thread.  If the thread has no affinity
       for any lgroup that it can run on, the operating system will choose a home for it.

       The idtype argument should be P_PID to specify a process and the id argument should be its process  ID.	 Otherwise,  the  idtype  argument
       should be P_LWPID to specify a thread and the id argument should be its LWP ID. The value P_MYID can be used for the id argument to specify
       the current process or thread.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, lgrp_home() returns the ID of the home lgroup of the specified process or thread. Otherwise, -1 is returned and
       errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       The lgrp_home() function will fail if:

       EINVAL	       The ID type is not valid.

       EPERM	       The  effective user of the calling process does not have appropriate privileges, and its real or effective user ID does not
		       match the real or effective user ID of one of the threads.

       ESRCH	       The specified process or thread was not found.
