pthread_getconcurrency, pthread_setconcurrency - get and set the level of
concurrency

int pthread_getconcurrency(void);
int pthread_setconcurrency(int
new_level);
Unbound threads in a process may or may not be required to be simultaneously
active. By default, the threads implementation ensures that a sufficient
number of threads are active so that the process can continue to make
progress. While this conserves system resources, it may not produce the most
effective level of concurrency.
The
pthread_setconcurrency() function allows an application to inform the
threads implementation of its desired concurrency level,
new_level. The
actual level of concurrency provided by the implementation as a result of this
function call is unspecified.
If
new_level is zero, it causes the implementation to maintain the
concurrency level at its discretion as if
pthread_setconcurrency() had
never been called.
The
pthread_getconcurrency() function shall return the value set by a
previous call to the
pthread_setconcurrency() function. If the
pthread_setconcurrency() function was not previously called, this
function shall return zero to indicate that the implementation is maintaining
the concurrency level.
A call to
pthread_setconcurrency() shall inform the implementation of its
desired concurrency level. The implementation shall use this as a hint, not a
requirement.
If an implementation does not support multiplexing of user threads on top of
several kernel-scheduled entities, the
pthread_setconcurrency() and
pthread_getconcurrency() functions are provided for source code
compatibility but they shall have no effect when called. To maintain the
function semantics, the
new_level parameter is saved when
pthread_setconcurrency() is called so that a subsequent call to
pthread_getconcurrency() shall return the same value.
If successful, the
pthread_setconcurrency() function shall return zero;
otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.
The
pthread_getconcurrency() function shall always return the concurrency
level set by a previous call to
pthread_setconcurrency(). If the
pthread_setconcurrency() function has never been called,
pthread_getconcurrency() shall return zero.
The
pthread_setconcurrency() function shall fail if:
- EINVAL
- The value specified by new_level is negative.
- EAGAIN
- The value specific by new_level would cause a system
resource to be exceeded.
These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
The following sections are informative.
None.
Use of these functions changes the state of the underlying concurrency upon
which the application depends. Library developers are advised to not use the
pthread_getconcurrency() and
pthread_setconcurrency() functions
since their use may conflict with an applications use of these functions.
None.
None.
