PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSCHEDPOLICY(3) Linux Programmer's Manual PTHREAD_ATTR_SETSCHEDPOLICY(3)
NAME
pthread_attr_setschedpolicy, pthread_attr_getschedpolicy - set/get scheduling policy
attribute in thread attributes object
SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_attr_setschedpolicy(pthread_attr_t *attr, int policy);
int pthread_attr_getschedpolicy(const pthread_attr_t *attr, int *policy);
Compile and link with -pthread.
DESCRIPTION
The pthread_attr_setschedpolicy() function sets the scheduling policy attribute of the
thread attributes object referred to by attr to the value specified in policy. This
attribute determines the scheduling policy of a thread created using the thread attributes
object attr.
The supported values for policy are SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_RR, and SCHED_OTHER, with the semanā
tics described in sched(7).
The pthread_attr_getschedpolicy() returns the scheduling policy attribute of the thread
attributes object attr in the buffer pointed to by policy.
In order for the policy setting made by pthread_attr_setschedpolicy() to have effect when
calling pthread_create(3), the caller must use pthread_attr_setinheritsched(3) to set the
inherit-scheduler attribute of the attributes object attr to PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED.
RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return 0; on error, they return a nonzero error number.
ERRORS
pthread_attr_setschedpolicy() can fail with the following error:
EINVAL Invalid value in policy.
POSIX.1-2001 also documents an optional ENOTSUP error ("attempt was made to set the
attribute to an unsupported value") for pthread_attr_setschedpolicy().
ATTRIBUTES
Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
The pthread_attr_setschedpolicy() and pthread_attr_getschedpolicy() functions are thread-
safe.
CONFORMING TO
POSIX.1-2001.
