The structure is 29<strong>policy_timeshare_base</strong>. 30<dt> <strong>PROCESSOR_SET_FIFO_DEFAULT</strong> 31<dd> 32Change the base attributes for the FIFO (first-in, first-out) 33scheduling policy, making FIFO the default policy. The 34structure is <strong>policy_fifo_base</strong>. 35<dt> <strong>PROCESSOR_SET_RR_DEFAULT</strong> 36<dd> 37Changed the base attributes for the round-robin scheduling 38policy, making round robin the default policy. The structure is 39<strong>policy_rr_base</strong>. 40<dt> <strong>PROCESSOR_SET_TIMESHARE_LIMITS</strong> 41<dd> 42Change the limits on the allowed timeshare policy attributes. 43The structure is defined by <strong>policy_timeshare_limit</strong>. 44<dt> <strong>PROCESSOR_SET_RR_LIMITS</strong> 45<dd> 46Change the limits on the allowed round robin policy 47attributes. The structure is defined by <strong>policy_rr_limit</strong>. 48<dt> <strong>PROCESSOR_SET_FIFO_LIMITS</strong> 49<dd> 50Change the limits on the allowed first-in, first-out policy 51attributes. The structure is defined by <strong>policy_fifo_limit</strong>. 52<dt> <strong>PROCESSOR_SET_ENABLED_POLICIES</strong> 53<dd> 54Change the set of enabled policies. The data is a bit-vector. 55</dl> 56<dt> <var>policy_info</var> 57<dd> 58[in structure] 59The relevant policy information. 60<dt> <var>policy_info_count</var> 61<dd> 62[in scalar] 63The size of the buffer (in natural-sized units). 64<dt> <var>change_tasks_threads</var> 65<dd> 66[in scalar] 67If true, any assigned task or thread whose policy is no 68longer enabled or whose scheduling attributes exceed the current limits will 69have their limits adjusted or their policy set to the default as 70appropriate. 71</dl> 72<h3>DESCRIPTION</h3> 73<p> 74The <strong>processor_set_policy_control</strong> function controls 75scheduling attributes governing the processor set. 76<h3>RETURN VALUES</h3> 77<p> 78Only generic errors apply. 79<h3>RELATED INFORMATION</h3> 80<p> 81Functions: 82<a href="processor_set_statistics.html">processor_set_statistics</a>, 83<a href="processor_set_create.html">processor_set_create</a>, 84<a href="processor_set_default.html">processor_set_default</a>, 85<a href="processor_assign.html">processor_assign</a>, 86<a href="processor_set_info.html">processor_set_info</a>. 87<p> 88Data Structures: 89<a href="policy_timeshare_info.html">policy_timeshare_info</a>, 90<a href="policy_rr_info.html">policy_rr_info</a>, 91<a href="policy_fifo_info.html">policy_fifo_info</a>. 92
