       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of
       this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux  manual  page  for  details  of
       Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

       sched_getparam — get scheduling parameters (REALTIME)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sched.h>

       int sched_getparam(pid_t pid, struct sched_param *param);

DESCRIPTION

       The  sched_getparam()  function  shall  return  the  scheduling  parameters  of  a process
       specified by pid in the sched_param structure pointed to by param.

       If a process specified by pid exists, and if  the  calling  process  has  permission,  the
       scheduling parameters for the process whose process ID is equal to pid shall be returned.

       If  pid  is zero, the scheduling parameters for the calling process shall be returned. The
       behavior of the sched_getparam() function is unspecified if the value of pid is negative.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, the sched_getparam() function shall return zero. If  the  call
       to sched_getparam() is unsuccessful, the function shall return a value of −1 and set errno
       to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       The sched_getparam() function shall fail if:

       EPERM  The requesting process does not have permission to obtain the scheduling parameters
              of the specified process.

       ESRCH  No process can be found corresponding to that specified by pid.
