The pthread_getcpuclockid
()
function returns the clock ID for the CPU time clock of the
thread thread
.
Per-thread CPU time clocks are not supported by the system.
No thread with the ID thread
could be
found.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

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
.
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
