nice()函数 Unix/Linux
内容简介
#include <unistd.h>int nice(int inc);
描述
nice() 增加inc 为调用进程的nice值. (A higher nice value means a low priority.) Only the super user may specify a negative increment, or priority increase. The range for nice values is described in getpriority(2).返回值
On success, the new nice value is returned (but see NOTES below). On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.错误
| 标签 | 描述 |
|---|---|
| EPERM | The calling process attempted to increase its priority by supplying a negative inc but has insufficient privileges. Under Linux the CAP_SYS_NICE capability is required. (But see the discussion of the RLIMIT_NICE resource limit in setrlimit(2).) |

SVr4, 4.3BSD, POSIX.1-2001. However, the Linux and (g)libc (earlier than glibc 2.2.4) return value is nonstandard, see below. SVr4 documents an additional EINVAL error code.注意
SUSv2 and POSIX.1-2001 specify that nice() should return the new nice value. However, the Linux syscall and the nice() library function provided in older versions of (g)libc (earlier than glibc 2.2.4) return 0 on success. The new nice value can be found usinggetpriority(2).Since glibc 2.2.4, nice() is implemented as a library function that calls getpriority(2) to obtain the new nice value to be returned to the caller. With this implementation, a successful call can legitimately return -1. To reliably detect an error, set errno to 0 before the call, and check its value when nice() returns -1.
