Scheduling parameters of a process and its main thread

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 

Hi
When a process only has one thread, I would expect that sched_get* and pthread_getschedparam return equivalent priorities. 

But in the example below, it's not the case.
What I do:
- print priorities
- give RT priority to the process
- print priorities
- give RT priority to the thread
- print priorities

1. Process 3938 : policy=0 prio=0
1. Thread 1075147872 : policy=0  prio=0

2.  Process 3938 : policy=1 prio=20
2.  Thread 1075147872 : policy=0  prio=0

3.  Process 3938 : policy=1 prio=30
3.  Thread 1075147872 : policy=1  prio=30
As you can see, at the step to, the process and the thread don't have the same parameters. 
Is that normal?



#include <stdio.h>

/* gcc schedparam.c -o schedparam -Wall -pthread */

int print_process_sched(pid_t pid) {
  struct sched_param param;
  int prio;
  int policy;

  policy = sched_getscheduler(pid);

  sched_getparam(pid,&param);
  prio = param.sched_priority;

  printf("Process %d : policy=%d prio=%d\n",(int)pid, policy,prio);

  return 0;
}

int utilities_print_thread_sched(pthread_t id) {
  struct sched_param param;
  int policy;
  int prio;
  unsigned long int lid = id;

  if ( pthread_getschedparam(id, &policy, &param) ) {
    perror("pthread_getschedparam()"); return 1;
  }

  prio = param.sched_priority;

  printf("Thread %ld : policy=%d  prio=%d\n", (long)lid, policy,prio);

  return 0;
}

int main(void ) {

  struct sched_param p;

  printf("1. "); print_process_sched(getpid());
  printf("1. "); utilities_print_thread_sched(pthread_self());

  p.sched_priority = 20;
  if ( sched_setscheduler(getpid(),SCHED_FIFO,&p) ) {
    perror("sched_setscheduler()");
    return 1;
  }

  printf("2.  "); print_process_sched(getpid());
  printf("2.  "); utilities_print_thread_sched(pthread_self());

  p.sched_priority = 30;
  if ( pthread_setschedparam(pthread_self(),SCHED_FIFO,&p) ) {
    perror("sched_setscheduler()");
    return 1;
  }

  printf("3.  "); print_process_sched(getpid());
  printf("3.  "); utilities_print_thread_sched(pthread_self());

  return 0;
}
