PTHREAD_MUTEXATTR_GETPRIOCEILING

PROLOG
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
pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling, pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling
- get and set the prioceiling attribute of the mutex
attributes object (REALTIME THREADS)
SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling(const pthread_mutexattr_t *
restrict attr, int *restrict prioceiling);
int pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling(pthread_mutexattr_t *attr,
int prioceiling);
DESCRIPTION
The pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling() and pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling()
functions, respectively, shall get
and set the priority ceiling attribute of a mutex attributes object
pointed to by attr which was previously created by the
function pthread_mutexattr_init().
The prioceiling attribute contains the priority ceiling of initialized
mutexes. The values of prioceiling are
within the maximum range of priorities defined by SCHED_FIFO.
The prioceiling attribute defines the priority ceiling of initialized
mutexes, which is the minimum priority level at
which the critical section guarded by the mutex is executed. In order
to avoid priority inversion, the priority ceiling of the
mutex shall be set to a priority higher than or equal to the highest
priority of all the threads that may lock that mutex. The
values of prioceiling are within the maximum range of priorities
defined under the SCHED_FIFO scheduling policy.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling()
and pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling()
functions shall return zero; otherwise, an error number shall be returned
to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The pthread_mutexattr_getprioceiling() and pthread_mutexattr_setprioceiling()
functions may fail if:
- EINVAL
-
The value specified by attr or prioceiling is invalid.
- EPERM
-
The caller does not have the privilege to perform the operation.
These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
