SCHED_GET_PRIORITY_MAX(2) FreeBSD System Calls ManualSCHED_GET_PRIORITY_MAX(2)

NAME
     sched_get_priority_max, sched_get_priority_min, sched_rr_get_interval --
     get scheduling parameter limits

LIBRARY
     Standard C	Library	(libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sched.h>

     int
     sched_get_priority_max(int	policy);

     int
     sched_get_priority_min(int	policy);

     int
     sched_rr_get_interval(pid_t pid, struct timespec *interval);

DESCRIPTION
     The sched_get_priority_max() and sched_get_priority_min() system calls
     return the	appropriate maximum or minimum,	respectively, for the schedul-
     ing policy	specified by policy.  The sched_rr_get_interval() system call
     updates the timespec structure referenced by the interval argument	to
     contain the current execution time	limit (i.e., time quantum) for the
     process specified by pid.	If pid is zero,	the current execution time
     limit for the calling process is returned.

     The value of policy should	be one of the scheduling policy	values defined
     in	_sched.h_:

     [SCHED_FIFO]   First-in-first-out fixed priority scheduling with no round
		    robin scheduling;

     [SCHED_OTHER]  The	standard time sharing scheduler;

     [SCHED_RR]	    Round-robin	scheduling across same priority	processes.

RETURN VALUES
     If	successful, the	sched_get_priority_max() and sched_get_priority_min()
     system calls shall	return the appropriate maximum or minimum values, re-
     spectively.  If unsuccessful, they	shall return a value of	-1 and set
     errno to indicate the error.

     The sched_rr_get_interval() function returns the value 0 if successful;
     otherwise the value -1 is returned	and the	global variable	errno is set
     to	indicate the error.

ERRORS
     On	failure	errno will be set to the corresponding value:

     [EINVAL]		The value of the policy	argument does not represent a
			defined	scheduling policy.

     [ENOSYS]		The sched_get_priority_max(),
			sched_get_priority_min(), and sched_rr_get_interval()
			system calls are not supported by the implementation.

     [ESRCH]		No process can be found	corresponding to that speci-
			fied by	pid.

STANDARDS
     The sched_get_priority_max(), sched_get_priority_min(), and
     sched_rr_get_interval() system calls conform to IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993
     ("POSIX.1").
