posix_spawnattr_getschedparam()

Get the scheduling parameters attribute of a spawn attributes object

Synopsis:

#include <spawn.h>

int posix_spawnattr_getschedparam(
       const posix_spawnattr_t *_Restrict attrp,
       struct sched_param *_Restrict sched_p);

Arguments:

attrp
A pointer to the spawn attributes object that you want to query.
sched_p
A pointer to a sched_param structure where the function can store the scheduling parameters.

Library:

libc

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

Description:

The posix_spawnattr_getschedparam() function obtains the value of the scheduling parameters attribute from the attributes object pointed to by attrp, and stores the value in the location pointed to by sched_p. You must have already initialized the spawn attributes object by calling posix_spawnattr_init().

The scheduling parameters attribute governs the parameter assigned to a new process image in a spawn operation if POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDULER or POSIX_SPAWN_SETSCHEDPARAM is set in the spawn flags attribute; to set this flag, call the POSIX function posix_spawnattr_setflags(), or the QNX Neutrino function posix_spawnattr_setxflags(). The default value of the process group attribute is zero. By default, the child process uses the same scheduling parameters as the parent.

You can specify the value of this attribute by calling posix_spawnattr_setschedparam().

Returns:

EOK
Success.
EINVAL
An argument was invalid.
