  NAME

      pthread_attr_getinheritsched - Obtains the inherit scheduling attribute

  SYNOPSIS

      #include <pthread.h>

      int pthread_attr_getinheritsched(pthread_attr_t attr);

  PARAMETERS

      attr                Thread attributes object whose inherit scheduling
                          attribute is obtained.

  DESCRIPTION

  The pthread_attr_getinheritsched() routine obtains the value of the
  inherit scheduling attribute in the specified thread attributes object.
  The inherit scheduling attribute specifies whether threads created using
  the attributes object inherit the scheduling attributes of the creating
  thread, or use the scheduling attributes stored in the attributes object
  that is passed to pthread_create().

  The default value of the inherit scheduling attribute is
  PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED.

  RETURN VALUES

  On successful completion, this routine returns the inherit scheduling
  attribute value.

  If the function fails, errno may be set to one of the following values:

    Return                    Error      Description
     ________________________________________________________________
