PTHREAD_GETCPUCLOCKID(3)                                                Linux Programmer's Manual                                               PTHREAD_GETCPUCLOCKID(3)

NAME
       pthread_getcpuclockid - retrieve ID of a thread's CPU time clock

SYNOPSIS
       #include <pthread.h>
       #include <time.h>

       int pthread_getcpuclockid(pthread_t thread, clockid_t *clockid);

       Compile and link with -pthread.

DESCRIPTION
       The pthread_getcpuclockid() function obtains the ID of the CPU-time clock of the thread whose ID is given in thread, and returns it in the location pointed to by
       clockid.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, this function returns 0; on error, it returns a nonzero error number.

ERRORS
       ENOENT Per-thread CPU time clocks are not supported by the system.

       ESRCH  No thread with the ID thread could be found.

VERSIONS
       This function is available in glibc since version 2.2.

CONFORMING TO
       POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.

NOTES
       When thread refers to the calling thread, this function returns an identifier that refers to the same clock manipulated by clock_gettime(2) and  clock_settime(2)
       when given the clock ID CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID.

EXAMPLES
       The  program  below  creates  a  thread  and  then  uses clock_gettime(2) to retrieve the total process CPU time, and the per-thread CPU time consumed by the two
       threads.  The following shell session shows an example run:

           $ ./a.out
           Main thread sleeping
           Subthread starting infinite loop
           Main thread consuming some CPU time...
           Process total CPU time:    1.368
           Main thread CPU time:      0.376
           Subthread CPU time:        0.992
