thr_getprio(3scl)thr_getprio(3scl)NAMEthr_getprio - Gets the priority for the specified thread.
LIBRARY
SCL Threads Library (libthread.so)
SYNOPSIS
#include <thread.h>
int thr_getprio(
thread_t thread_id,
int *priority );
PARAMETERS
Identifier of thread for which the priority is requested. Returns the
specified thread's priority.
DESCRIPTION
This routine returns the priority of the specified thread.
SCL IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
POSIX threads has no equivalent of thread priority. The POSIX thread
library manages thread scheduling.
The SCL thread library maintains a priority value for each thread, but
this value does not affect the scheduling of the thread.
When a thread is created, the SCL thread library sets its priority to
0. If the thread's priority is modifed by calls to thr_setprio(3scl),
SCL updates the thread's priority, such that subsequent calls to
thr_getprio(3scl) get the appropriate value.
RETURN VALUES
If an error condition occurs, this routine returns an integer value
indicating the type of error.
Additional error return information may be written to the SCL error
log. Refer to scl_error_log(4scl) for details.
Possible return values are as follows: Successful completion. The
value specified by thread_id does not refer to an existing thread.
ERRORS
None.
