+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIpthread_attr_getinheritsched\fP(), and \fIpthread_attr_setinheritsched\fP()
+functions, respectively, shall get and set
+the \fIinheritsched\fP attribute in the \fIattr\fP argument.
+.LP
+When the attributes objects are used by \fIpthread_create\fP(), the
+\fIinheritsched\fP attribute determines how the other scheduling attributes
+of the created thread shall be set.
+.TP 7
+PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED
+.sp
+Specifies that the thread scheduling attributes shall be inherited
+from the creating thread, and the scheduling attributes in this
+\fIattr\fP argument shall be ignored.
+.TP 7
+PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED
+.sp
+Specifies that the thread scheduling attributes shall be set to the
+corresponding values from this attributes object.
+.sp
+.LP
+The symbols PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED and PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED are defined
+in the \fI<pthread.h>\fP header.
+.LP
+The following thread scheduling attributes defined by IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001
+are affected by the \fIinheritsched\fP
+attribute: scheduling policy ( \fIschedpolicy\fP), scheduling parameters
+( \fIschedparam\fP), and scheduling contention scope (
+\fIcontentionscope\fP).
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+If successful, the \fIpthread_attr_getinheritsched\fP() and \fIpthread_attr_setinheritsched\fP()
+functions shall return zero;
+otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate the error.
+.SH ERRORS
+.LP
+The \fIpthread_attr_setinheritsched\fP() function may fail if:
+.TP 7
+.B EINVAL
+The value of \fIinheritsched\fP is not valid.
+.TP 7
+.B ENOTSUP
+An attempt was made to set the attribute to an unsupported value.
+.sp
+.LP
+These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
+.LP
+\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.LP
+None.
+.SH APPLICATION USAGE
+.LP
+After these attributes have been set, a thread can be created with
+the specified attributes using \fIpthread_create\fP(). Using these
+routines does not affect the current running
+thread.
+.SH RATIONALE
+.LP
+None.
+.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
+.LP
+None.
