#include <sched.h> int sched_getcpu(void); Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): sched_getcpu(): Since glibc 2.14: _GNU_SOURCE Before glibc 2.14: _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE /* _GNU_SOURCE also suffices */

LIBRARY

Standard C library (libc, -lc)

DESCRIPTION

sched_getcpu() returns the number of the CPU on which the calling thread is currently executing.

RETURN VALUE

On success, sched_getcpu() returns a nonnegative CPU number. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

This kernel does not implement getcpu(2).

ATTRIBUTES

For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

Interface Attribute Value
sched_getcpu () Thread safety MT-Safe

STANDARDS

GNU.

HISTORY

glibc 2.6.

NOTES

The call


cpu = sched_getcpu();

is equivalent to the following getcpu(2) call:


int c, s;
s = getcpu(&c, NULL);
cpu = (s == -1) ? s : c;
