PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the  corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
       pthread_getschedparam, pthread_setschedparam -- dynamic thread schedul-
       ing parameters access (REALTIME THREADS)
SYNOPSIS
       #include <pthread.h>
       int pthread_getschedparam(pthread_t thread, int *restrict policy,
           struct sched_param *restrict param);
       int pthread_setschedparam(pthread_t thread, int policy,
           const struct sched_param *param);
DESCRIPTION
       The   pthread_getschedparam()   and  pthread_setschedparam()  functions
       shall, respectively, get and set the scheduling policy  and  parameters
       of  individual  threads within a multi-threaded process to be retrieved
       and set. For SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR, the only required member  of  the
       sched_param structure is the priority sched_priority.  For SCHED_OTHER,
       the affected scheduling parameters are implementation-defined.
       The pthread_getschedparam() function shall retrieve the scheduling pol-
       icy  and  scheduling parameters for the thread whose thread ID is given
       by thread and shall store those values in  policy  and  param,  respec-
       tively.  The priority value returned from pthread_getschedparam() shall
       be the value specified  by  the  most  recent  pthread_setschedparam(),
       pthread_setschedprio(),  or  pthread_create() call affecting the target
       thread. It shall not reflect any temporary adjustments to its  priority
       as  a  result  of  any  priority  inheritance or ceiling functions. The
       pthread_setschedparam() function shall set the  scheduling  policy  and
       associated  scheduling  parameters  for  the  thread whose thread ID is
       given by thread to the policy and  associated  parameters  provided  in
       policy and param, respectively.
       The  policy  parameter  may  have the value SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_FIFO, or
       SCHED_RR. The scheduling parameters  for  the  SCHED_OTHER  policy  are
       implementation-defined. The SCHED_FIFO and SCHED_RR policies shall have
       a single scheduling parameter, priority.
       If _POSIX_THREAD_SPORADIC_SERVER is defined, then the  policy  argument
       may   have  the  value  SCHED_SPORADIC,  with  the  exception  for  the
       pthread_setschedparam() function that if the scheduling policy was  not
       SCHED_SPORADIC  at  the  time of the call, it is implementation-defined
       whether the function is supported; in other words,  the  implementation
       need  not  allow  the  application to dynamically change the scheduling
       policy to SCHED_SPORADIC. The sporadic server scheduling policy has the
       associated   parameters   sched_ss_low_priority,  sched_ss_repl_period,
       sched_ss_init_budget, sched_priority, and sched_ss_max_repl.  The spec-
       ified sched_ss_repl_period shall be greater than or equal to the speci-
       fied sched_ss_init_budget for the function to succeed; if  it  is  not,
       then  the  function shall fail. The value of sched_ss_max_repl shall be
       within the inclusive range [1,{SS_REPL_MAX}] for the function  to  suc-
       ceed;  if  not, the function shall fail.  It is unspecified whether the
       sched_ss_repl_period and sched_ss_init_budget values are stored as pro-
       vided  by  this function or are rounded to align with the resolution of
       the clock being used.
       If the pthread_setschedparam() function fails, the  scheduling  parame-
       ters shall not be changed for the target thread.
RETURN VALUE
       If  successful, the pthread_getschedparam() and pthread_setschedparam()
       functions shall return  zero;  otherwise,  an  error  number  shall  be
       returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
       The pthread_setschedparam() function shall fail if:
       ENOTSUP
              An  attempt  was made to set the policy or scheduling parameters
              to an unsupported value.
       ENOTSUP
              An attempt was made to dynamically change the scheduling  policy
              to  SCHED_SPORADIC, and the implementation does not support this
              change.
       The pthread_setschedparam() function may fail if:
       EINVAL The value specified by policy or one of the  scheduling  parame-
              ters associated with the scheduling policy policy is invalid.
       EPERM  The  caller  does  not have appropriate privileges to set either
              the scheduling parameters or the scheduling policy of the speci-
              fied thread.
       EPERM  The  implementation does not allow the application to modify one
              of the parameters to the value specified.
       These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
       The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
       None.
APPLICATION USAGE
       None.
RATIONALE
       If an implementation detects use of a thread ID after the  end  of  its
       lifetime, it is recommended that the function should fail and report an
       [ESRCH] error.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
