<para> <function>chroot</function>, <function>mknod</function>,
|

<function>settimeofday</function>, and <function>vhangup</function>
|

always return -1 and sets errno to ENOSYS.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para> <function>nice</function> allows Cygwin programs to alter their
|
|
current runtime priority through the use of its incr argument. Cygwin
|
|
processes can be set to IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS,
|
|
HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS, or REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS with the
|
|
<function>nice</function> call. NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS is the
|
|
default. If you pass a positive number to nice(), then the priority
|
|
level will decrease by one (within the above list of priorities). A
|
|
negative number would make it increase by one. It is not possible to
|
|
change it by more than one at a time without making repeated calls.
|
|
An increment above REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS results in the process
|
|
staying at that priority. Likewise, a decrement to
|
|
IDLE_PRIORITY_CLASS has it stay at that priority. Note that in the
|
|
Win32 API, there are 32 priorities. So currently we only give access
|
|
to four of these through <function>nice</function>.
|
|
|
|
<para> <function>seteuid</function>, <function>setegid</function>, and
|

<function>settimeofday</function> always return 0 and sets errno to

ENOSYS.</para>
