pthread_attr_setschedparam()

Set a thread's scheduling parameters attribute

Synopsis:

#include <pthread.h>
#include <sched.h>

int pthread_attr_setschedparam(
            pthread_attr_t * attr,
            const struct sched_param * param );

Arguments:

attr

A pointer to the pthread_attr_t structure that defines the attributes to use when creating new threads. For more information, see pthread_attr_init().

param

A pointer to a sched_param structure that defines the thread's scheduling parameters.

Library:

libc

Use the -l c option to qcc to link against this library. This library is usually included automatically.

Description:

The pthread_attr_setschedparam() function sets the thread scheduling parameters attribute in the thread attribute object attr to param.

The thread scheduling parameters are used only if you've set the thread inherit scheduling attribute to PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED by calling pthread_attr_setinheritsched(). By default, a thread inherits its parent's priority.

Returns:

EOK

Success.

EINVAL

Invalid thread attribute object attr.

ENOTSUP

Invalid thread scheduling parameters attribute param.

Classification:

POSIX 1003.1 THR

Safety:
Cancellation point	No
Interrupt handler	No
Signal handler	Yes
Thread	Yes
