NAME
clock_getcpuclockid - access a process CPU-time clock

LIBRARY
libc

SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
int
clock_getcpuclockid(pid_t pid, clockid_t *clock_id);

DESCRIPTION
The clock_getcpuclockid() function returns the clock ID of the CPU-time clock of the process specified by pid. If the process described by pid exists and the calling process has permission, the clock ID of this clock will be returned in clock_id.

If pid is zero, clock_getcpuclockid() returns the clock ID of the CPU-time clock of the process making the call.

RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, clock_getcpuclockid() returns zero; otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS
The clock_getcpuclockid() function will fail if:

[EPERM]
    The requesting process does not have permission to access the CPU-time clock for the process.

[ESRCH]
    No process can be found corresponding to the process specified by pid.
