int sched_getparam(pid_t pid, struct sched_param *param);
DESCRIPTION
The sched_getparam() function shall return the scheduling parameters
of a process specified by pid in the
sched_param structure pointed to by param.
If a process specified by pid exists, and if the calling process
has permission, the scheduling parameters for the
process whose process ID is equal to pid shall be returned.
If pid is zero, the scheduling parameters for the calling process
shall be returned. The behavior of the
sched_getparam() function is unspecified if the value of pid
is negative.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the sched_getparam() function shall
return zero. If the call to sched_getparam() is
unsuccessful, the function shall return a value of -1 and set errno
to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The sched_getparam() function shall fail if:
EPERM
The requesting process does not have permission to obtain the scheduling
parameters of the specified process.
ESRCH
No process can be found corresponding to that specified by pid.
