sched_yield - yield the processor
Návod, kniha: Linux Programmer's Manual
#include <sched.h>
int sched_yield(void);
A process can relinquish the processor voluntarily without blocking by calling
sched_yield. The process will then be moved to the end of the queue for
its static priority and a new process gets to run.
Note: If the current process is the only process in the highest priority list at
that time, this process will continue to run after a call to
sched_yield.
POSIX systems on which
sched_yield is available define
_POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING in <unistd.h>.
On success,
sched_yield returns 0. On error, -1 is returned, and
errno is set appropriately.
