9 #include <sched.h>
10
12 The <sched.h> header shall define the sched_param structure, which con‐
13 tains the scheduling parameters required for implementation of each
14 supported scheduling policy. This structure shall contain at least the
15 following member:
16
17
18 int sched_priority Process execution scheduling priority.
19
20 In addition, if _POSIX_SPORADIC_SERVER or _POSIX_THREAD_SPORADIC_SERVER
21 is defined, the sched_param structure defined in <sched.h> shall con‐
22 tain the following members in addition to those specified above:
23
24
25 int sched_ss_low_priority Low scheduling priority for
26 sporadic server.
27 struct timespec sched_ss_repl_period Replenishment period for
28 sporadic server.
29 struct timespec sched_ss_init_budget Initial budget for sporadic server.
30 int sched_ss_max_repl Maximum pending replenishments for
31 sporadic server.
32
33 Each process is controlled by an associated scheduling policy and pri‐
34 ority. Associated with each policy is a priority range. Each policy
35 definition specifies the minimum priority range for that policy. The
36 priority ranges for each policy may overlap the priority ranges of
37 other policies.
38
39 Four scheduling policies are defined; others may be defined by the
40 implementation. The four standard policies are indicated by the values
41 of the following symbolic constants:
42
43 SCHED_FIFO
44 First in-first out (FIFO) scheduling policy.
45
46 SCHED_RR
47 Round robin scheduling policy.
48
49 SCHED_SPORADIC
50 Sporadic server scheduling policy.
51
52 SCHED_OTHER
53 Another scheduling policy.
54
55
56 The values of these constants are distinct.
57
58 The following shall be declared as functions and may also be defined as
59 macros. Function prototypes shall be provided.
60
61
62 int sched_get_priority_max(int);
63 int sched_get_priority_min(int);
64
65 int sched_getparam(pid_t, struct sched_param *);
66 int sched_getscheduler(pid_t);
67
68 int sched_rr_get_interval(pid_t, struct timespec *);
69
70 int sched_setparam(pid_t, const struct sched_param *);
71 int sched_setscheduler(pid_t, int, const struct sched_param *);
72
73 int sched_yield(void);

78 <time.h> header.
