SCHED_GETPARAM(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual SCHED_GETPARAM(3P)
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
sched_getparam -- get scheduling parameters (REALTIME)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sched.h>
int sched_getparam(pid_t pid, struct sched_param *param);
DESCRIPTION
The sched_getparam() function shall return the scheduling parameters of
a process specified by pid in the sched_param structure pointed to by
param.
If a process specified by pid exists, and if the calling process has
permission, the scheduling parameters for the process whose process ID
is equal to pid shall be returned.
If pid is zero, the scheduling parameters for the calling process shall
be returned. The behavior of the sched_getparam() function is unspeci-
fied if the value of pid is negative.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the sched_getparam() function shall return
zero. If the call to sched_getparam() is unsuccessful, the function
shall return a value of -1 and set errno to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The sched_getparam() function shall fail if:
EPERM The requesting process does not have permission to obtain the
scheduling parameters of the specified process.
ESRCH No process can be found corresponding to that specified by pid.
