sched_getscheduler(3RT) Realtime Library Functions sched_getscheduler(3RT)
NAME
sched_getscheduler - get scheduling policy
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lrt [ library... ]
#include <sched.h>
int sched_getscheduler(pid_t pid);
DESCRIPTION
The sched_getscheduler() function returns the scheduling policy of the process specified by pid. If the value of pid is negative, the
behavior of the sched_getscheduler() function is unspecified.
The values that can be returned by sched_getscheduler() are defined in the header <sched.h> and described on the sched_setscheduler(3RT)
manual page.
If a process specified by pid exists and if the calling process has permission, the scheduling policy will be returned for the process
whose process ID is equal to pid.
If pid is 0, the scheduling policy will be returned for the calling process.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the sched_getscheduler() function returns the scheduling policy of the specified process. If unsuccessful, the
function returns -1 and sets errno to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The sched_getscheduler() function will fail if:
ENOSYS The sched_getscheduler() function is not supported by the system.
EPERM The requesting process does not have permission to determine the scheduling policy of the specified process.
ESRCH No process can be found corresponding to that specified by pid.

Solaris 2.6 was the first release to support libposix4/librt. Prior to this release, this function always returned -1 and set errno to
ENOSYS.
