 thr_getprio 3C "1 Apr 2008" "SunOS 5.11" "Standard C Library Functions"
 NAME
thr_getprio, thr_setprio - access dynamic thread scheduling
 SYNOPSIS

cc -mt [ flag... ] file...[ library... ]
#include <thread.h>

int thr_setprio(thread_t target_thread, int priority);


int thr_getprio(thread_t target_thread, int *priority);


 DESCRIPTION

The thr_setprio() function sets the scheduling priority for the thread
specified by target_thread within the current process to the value given by
priority.

The thr_getprio() function stores the current priority for the thread
specified by target_thread in the location pointed to by priority.

If the thr_setprio() function fails, the scheduling priority of the
target thread is not changed.

See priocntl(2), pthread_setschedprio(3C), and
sched_setparam(3C).
 RETURN VALUES

If successful, the thr_getprio() and thr_setprio() functions return
0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
 ERRORS

The thr_getprio() and thr_setprio() functions will fail if:

ESRCH

The value specified by target_thread does not refer to an existing
thread.


The thr_setprio() function will fail if:

EINVAL

The value of priority is invalid for the scheduling policy of the
specified thread.


EPERM

The caller does not have the appropriate permission to set the priority to the
value specified.
