Function Documentation
- Returns
- if JACK is running with realtime scheduling, this returns the priority that any JACK-created client threads will run at. Otherwise returns -1.
- Returns
- if JACK is running with realtime scheduling, this returns the maximum priority that a JACK client thread should use if the thread is subject to realtime scheduling. Otherwise returns -1.
int jack_acquire_real_time_scheduling |
( |
jack_native_thread_t |
thread, |
|
|
int |
priority |
|
) |
| |
Attempt to enable realtime scheduling for a thread. On some systems that may require special privileges.
- Parameters
-
thread | POSIX thread ID. |
priority | requested thread priority. |
- Returns
- 0, if successful; EPERM, if the calling process lacks required realtime privileges; otherwise some other error number.
int jack_client_create_thread |

jack_client_t * |
client, |
|

|
|
void *(*)(void *) |
start_routine, |
|
|
void * |
arg |
|
) |
| |
Create a thread for JACK or one of its clients. The thread is created executing start_routine with arg as its sole argument.
- Parameters
-
client | the JACK client for whom the thread is being created. May be NULL if the client is being created within the JACK server. |
thread | place to return POSIX thread ID. |
priority | thread priority, if realtime. |
realtime | true for the thread to use realtime scheduling. On some systems that may require special privileges. |
start_routine | function the thread calls when it starts. |
arg | parameter passed to the start_routine. |
- Returns
- 0, if successful; otherwise some error number.
int jack_drop_real_time_scheduling |
( |
jack_native_thread_t |
thread | ) |
|
Drop realtime scheduling for a thread.
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- 0, if successful; otherwise an error number.
int jack_client_stop_thread |
( |
jack_client_t * |
client, |
|
|
jack_native_thread_t |
thread |
|
) |
| |
Stop the thread, waiting for the thread handler to terminate.
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- 0, if successful; otherwise an error number.
int jack_client_kill_thread |
( |
jack_client_t * |
client, |
|
|
jack_native_thread_t |
thread |
|
) |
| |
Kill the thread.
- Parameters
-
- Returns
- 0, if successful; otherwise an error number.
void jack_set_thread_creator |
( |
jack_thread_creator_t |
creator | ) |
|
This function can be used in very very specialized cases where it is necessary that client threads created by JACK are created by something other than pthread_create(). After it is used, any threads that JACK needs for the client will will be created by calling the function passed to this function.
No normal application/client should consider calling this. The specific case for which it was created involves running win32/x86 plugins under Wine on Linux, where it is necessary that all threads that might call win32 functions are known to Wine.
Set it to NULL to restore thread creation function.
- Parameters
-
creator | a function that creates a new thread |
