NAME
priocntlset - generalized process scheduler control
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/procset.h>
#include <sys/priocntl.h>
#include <sys/rtpriocntl.h>
#include <sys/tspriocntl.h>
long priocntlset(procsett *psp, int cmd, ... /* arg */);
DESCRIPTION
priocntlset changes the scheduling properties of running
processes. priocntlset has the same functions as the
priocntl system call, but a more general way of specifying
the set of processes whose scheduling properties are to be
changed.
cmd specifies the function to be performed. arg is a
pointer to a structure whose type depends on cmd. See
priocntl(2) for the valid values of cmd and the correspond-
ing arg structures.
psp is a pointer to a procset structure, which priocntlset
uses to specify the set of processes whose scheduling pro-
perties are to be changed.
typedef struct procset {
idop_t p_op; /* operator connecting left/right sets */
idtype_t p_lidtype; /* left set ID type */
id_t p_lid; /* left set ID */
idtype_t p_ridtype; /* right set ID type */
id_t p_rid; /* right set ID */
} procset_t;
p_lidtype and p_lid specify the ID type and ID of one (left)
set of processes; p_ridtype and p_rid specify the ID type
and ID of a second (right) set of processes. ID types and
IDs are specified just as for the priocntl system call.
p_op specifies the operation to be performed on the two sets
of processes to get the set of processes the system call is
to apply to. The valid values for p_op and the processes
they specify are:
POP_DIFF set difference: processes in left set and
not in right set
POP_AND set intersection: processes in both left
and right sets
POP_OR set union: processes in either left or
right sets or both

POP_XOR set exclusive-OR: processes in left or
right set but not in both
The following macro, which is defined in procset.h, offers a
convenient way to initialize a procset structure:
#define setprocset(psp, op, ltype, lid, rtype, rid) \
(psp)->p_op = (op), \
(psp)->p_lidtype = (ltype), \
(psp)->p_lid = (lid), \
(psp)->p_ridtype = (rtype), \
(psp)->p_rid = (rid),
DIAGNOSTICS
priocntlset has the same return values and errors as
priocntl.
