available_threads(3P)

NAME

available_threads - returns information about current thread usage

SUBROUTINE AVAILABLE_THREADS (NTOTAL, NUSING)

INTEGER NTOTAL

INTEGER NUSING

 

#include <sunperf.h>

void available_threads (int ∗total, int ∗now_using);

PURPOSE

This subroutine returns NTOTAL, which is the total number of CPUs available to the job (generally the number of CPUs presently on-line in the partition), and NUSING, which is the sum of the current Use numbers for all threads specified in USE_THREADS.  If NTOTAL < NUSING then the system is potentially overcommitted. 

ARGUMENTS

NTOTAL (output) INTEGER
Total number of CPUs available.

NUSING (output) INTEGER
Sum of current Use numbers for all threads specified in USE_THREADS.
