<P><B>pthread_setschedparam</B> sets the scheduling parameters for | |
the thread <I>target_thread</I> as indicated by <I>policy</I> and | |
<I>param</I>. <I>policy</I> can be either <B>SCHED_OTHER</B> | |
(regular, non-real-time scheduling), <B>SCHED_RR</B> (real-time, | |
round-robin) or <B>SCHED_FIFO</B> (real-time, first-in first-out). | |
<I>param</I> specifies the scheduling priority for the two real-time | |
policies.</P> | |
<P><B>Pthreads-w32</B> only supports SCHED_OTHER and does not support | |
the real-time scheduling policies <B>SCHED_RR</B> and <B>SCHED_FIFO.</B> | |

<P><B>pthread_getschedparam</B> retrieves the scheduling policy and | |
scheduling parameters for the thread <I>target_thread</I> and stores | |
them in the locations pointed to by <I>policy</I> and <I>param</I>, | |
respectively. | |
