+.TH sched_yield 2 2023-05-03 "Linux man-pages 6.05.01"
+.SH NAME
+sched_yield \- yield the processor
+.SH LIBRARY
+Standard C library
+.RI ( libc ", " \-lc )
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.B #include <sched.h>
+.PP
+.B int sched_yield(void);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.BR sched_yield ()
+causes the calling thread to relinquish the CPU.
+The thread is moved to the end of the queue for its static
+priority and a new thread gets to run.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+On success,
+.BR sched_yield ()
+returns 0.
+On error, \-1 is returned, and
+.I errno
+is set to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+In the Linux implementation,
+.BR sched_yield ()
+always succeeds.
+.SH STANDARDS
+POSIX.1-2008.
+.SH HISTORY
+POSIX.1-2001 (but optional).
+POSIX.1-2008.
+.PP
+Before POSIX.1-2008,
+systems on which
+.BR sched_yield ()
+is available defined
+.B _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING
+in
+.IR <unistd.h> .
+.SH CAVEATS
+.BR sched_yield ()
+is intended for use with real-time scheduling policies (i.e.,
+.B SCHED_FIFO
+or
+.BR SCHED_RR ).
+Use of
+.BR sched_yield ()
+with nondeterministic scheduling policies such as
+.B SCHED_OTHER
+is unspecified and very likely means your application design is broken.
+.PP
+If the calling thread is the only thread in the highest
+priority list at that time,
+it will continue to run after a call to
+.BR sched_yield ().
+.PP
+Avoid calling
+.BR sched_yield ()
+unnecessarily or inappropriately
+(e.g., when resources needed by other
+schedulable threads are still held by the caller),
+since doing so will result in unnecessary context switches,
+which will degrade system performance.
