getpriority, setpriority -获取/设置程序的调度优先级

#include

int getpriority(intwhich, intwho);

int setpriority(intwhich, intwho, intprio);

描述

The scheduling priority of the process, process group, or user, as indicated bywhichandwhois obtained with thegetpriority() call and set with thesetpriority() call.

The value which is one of PRIO_PROCESS, PRIO_PGRP, or PRIO_USER, and who is interpreted relative to which (a process identifier for PRIO_PROCESS, process group identifier for PRIO_PGRP, and a user ID for PRIO_USER). A zero value for who denotes (respectively) the calling process, the process group of the calling process, or the real user ID of the calling process. Prio is a value in the range -20 to 19 (but see the Notes below). The default priority is 0; lower priorities cause more favorable scheduling.

The getpriority() call returns the highest priority (lowest numerical value) enjoyed by any of the specified processes. The setpriority() call sets the priorities of all of the specified processes to the specified value. Only the superuser may lower priorities.

返回值

Sincegetpriority() can legitimately return the value -1, it is necessary to clear the external variableerrnoprior to the call, then check it afterwards to determine if a -1 is an error or a legitimate value. Thesetpriority() call returns 0 if there is no error, or -1 if there is.

描述

EINVAL

which was not one of PRIO_PROCESS, PRIO_PGRP, orPRIO_USER.

ESRCH

No process was located using the which and who values specified.

In addition to the errors indicated above, setpriority() may fail if:

EPERM

A process was located, but its effective user ID did not match either the effective or the real user ID of the caller, and was not privileged (on Linux: did not have the CAP_SYS_NICEcapability). But see NOTES below.

EACCES

The caller attempted to lower a process priority, but did not have the required privilege (on Linux: did not have theCAP_SYS_NICE capability). Since Linux 2.6.12, this error only occurs if the caller attempts to set a process priority outside the range of the RLIMIT_NICE soft resource limit of the target process; see getrlimit(2) for details.

注意

A child created byfork(2) inherits its parent’s nice value. The nice value is preserved acrossexecve(2).

The details on the condition for EPERM depend on the system. The above description is what POSIX.1-2001 says, and seems to be followed on all System V-like systems. Linux kernels before 2.6.12 required the real or effective user ID of the caller to match the real user of the process who (instead of its effective user ID). Linux 2.6.12 and later require the effective user ID of the caller to match the real or effective user ID of the process who. All BSD-like systems (SunOS 4.1.3, Ultrix 4.2, 4.3BSD, FreeBSD 4.3, OpenBSD-2.5, ...) behave in the same manner as Linux >= 2.6.12.

The actual priority range varies between kernel versions. Linux before 1.3.36 had -infinity..15. Since kernel 1.3.43 Linux has the range -20..19. Within the kernel, nice values are actually represented using the corresponding range 40..1 (since negative numbers are error codes) and these are the values employed by the setpriority() andgetpriority() system calls. The glibc wrapper functions for these system calls handle the translations between the user-land and kernel representations of the nice value according to the formula unice = 20 - knice.

On some systems, the range of nice values is -20..20.

Including  is not required these days, but increases portability. (Indeed, defines the rusage structure with fields of type struct timeval defined in .)

遵循于

SVr4, 4.4BSD (these function calls first appeared in 4.2BSD), POSIX.1-2001.
