 NAME

    pthread_getprio - Obtains the current priority of a thread

 SYNOPSIS

     #include <pthread.h>

     int pthread_getprio( pthread_t thread );

 PARAMETERS

      thread                Thread whose priority is obtained.

 DESCRIPTION

 The pthread_getprio() routine obtains the current priority of a thread.
 The current priority is different from the initial priority of the
 thread if the pthread_setprio() routine is called.

 The exact effect of different priority values depends upon the schedul-
 ing policy assigned to the thread.

 RETURN VALUES

 The current priority value of the thread specified in thread is
 returned. (See the pthread_setprio() reference page for valid values.)

 If the function fails, errno may be set to one of the following values:

    Return           Error      Description
    ________________________________________________________
    Priority value              Successful completion.

    -1              [EINVAL]    The value specified by thread is invalid.

    -1              [ESRCH]     The value specified by thread does not
                                refer to an existing thread.
