CLOCK_GETCPUCLOCKID(3P) POSIX Programmer's ManualCLOCK_GETCPUCLOCKID(3P)
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
clock_getcpuclockid — access a process CPU-time clock (ADVANCED
REALTIME)
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
int clock_getcpuclockid(pid_t pid, clockid_t *clock_id);
DESCRIPTION
The clock_getcpuclockid() function shall return the clock ID of
the CPU-time clock of the process specified by pid. If the
process described by pid exists and the calling process has
permission, the clock ID of this clock shall be returned in
clock_id.
If pid is zero, the clock_getcpuclockid() function shall return
the clock ID of the CPU-time clock of the process making the
call, in clock_id.
The conditions under which one process has permission to obtain
the CPU-time clock ID of other processes are implementation-
defined.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, clock_getcpuclockid() shall return
zero; otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate
the error.
ERRORS
The clock_getcpuclockid() function shall fail if:
EPERM The requesting process does not have permission to access
the CPU-time clock for the process.
The clock_getcpuclockid() function may fail if:
ESRCH No process can be found corresponding to the process
specified by pid.
The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
None.
APPLICATION USAGE
The clock_getcpuclockid() function is part of the Process CPU-
Time Clocks option and need not be provided on all
implementations.
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
