Get the minimum priority for the scheduling policy
Synopsis:
#include <sched.h>
int sched_get_priority_min( int policy );
Arguments:
- policy
- The scheduling policy, which must be one of:
- SCHED_FIFO — a fixed-priority scheduler in which
the highest priority ready thread runs until it blocks or is preempted
by a higher priority thread.
- SCHED_RR — similar to SCHED_FIFO,
except that threads at the same priority level timeslice (round robin)
every 4 × the clock period (see
ClockPeriod()).
- SCHED_OTHER — currently the same as
SCHED_RR.
- SCHED_SPORADIC — sporadic scheduling.
