#include <sched.h>

int sched_get_priority_max(int policy);
int sched_get_priority_min(int policy);

DESCRIPTION

The sched_get_priority_max() and sched_get_priority_min() functions return the appropriate maximum or minimum, respectfully, for the scheduling policy specified by policy.

The value of policy is one of the scheduling policy values defined in <sched.h>.

RETURN VALUES

ERRORS

The sched_get_priority_max() and sched_get_priority_min() functions will fail if:

EINVAL

The value of the policy parameter does not represent a defined scheduling policy.
