NAME
destroy_pset - Destroys a processor set
LIBRARY
Pset Library (libpset.a) Mach Library (libmach.a)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/processor.h> int destroy_pset( int pset_id, [1 | 0]);
PARAMETERS
Specifies the identification number for the processor set that you want to destroy. The pset_id processor set identification number is returned by a successful create_pset() call. A second argument may be required if there are threads or processors assigned to the proces- sor set. A value of 1 will force the destruction of the pset. A value of 0 will not force destruction automatically but will first prompt the user.
DESCRIPTION
The destroy_pset function destroys a processor set. A processor that belongs to a destroyed processor set is returned to the default pro- cessor set. You must have root privileges.
EXAMPLES
The following is example code for pset_destroy.c using the destroy_pset call: retval = destroy_pset(pset_id, 0); if (retval == PROCESSOR_SET_ACTIVE) { printf ("processor set %d has active ", pset_id); printf ("processors/tasks/threads assigned to it.0); printf ("destroy anyway? (y/n): "); while ((char)c != 'y' && (char)c != 'n') c = getchar(); if ((char)c == 'y') { retval = destroy_pset(pset_id, 1); if (retval != KERN_SUCCESS) { print_pset_error(retval);
RETURN VALUES
If the destroy_pset function succeeds, it returns a zero (0). If it fails, it returns a negative number. Use this number and the print_pset_error(3) function to print a message that describes the error. Processor set destruction is logged in the /var/adm/wtmp file.
