+.Sh NAME
+.Nm pthread_setschedparam ,
+.Nm pthread_getschedparam
+.Nd thread scheduling parameter manipulation
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libpthread
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In pthread.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn pthread_setschedparam "pthread_t thread" "int policy" "const struct sched_param *param"
+.Ft int
+.Fn pthread_getschedparam "pthread_t thread" "int *policy" "struct sched_param *param"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Fn pthread_setschedparam
+and
+.Fn pthread_getschedparam
+functions set and get the scheduling parameters of individual threads.
+The scheduling policy for a thread can either be
+.Dv SCHED_FIFO
+(first in, first out),
+.Dv SCHED_RR
+(round-robin), or
+.Dv SCHED_OTHER
+(timesharing).
+Valid thread priorities (accessed via
+.Va param->sched_priority )
+must be within the range returned by the
+.Xr sched_get_priority_min 2
+and
+.Xr sched_get_priority_max 2
+system calls.
+.Sh RETURN VALUES
+If successful, these functions return 0.
+Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
+.Sh ERRORS
+The
+.Fn pthread_setschedparam
+function will fail if:
+.Bl -tag -width Er
+.It Bq Er EINVAL
+Invalid value for
+.Fa policy .
+.It Bq Er ENOTSUP
+Invalid value for scheduling parameters.
+.It Bq Er ESRCH
+Non-existent thread
+.Fa thread .
