clock_getcpuclockid − obtain ID of a process CPU-time clock
#include <time.h>
int clock_getcpuclockid(pid_t pid, clockid_t *clock_id);
Link with −lrt.
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
clock_getcpuclockid():
_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
The clock_getcpuclockid() function obtains the ID of the CPU-time clock of the process whose ID is pid, and returns it in the location pointed to by clock_id. If pid is zero, then the clock ID of the CPU-time clock of the calling process is returned.
On success, clock_getcpuclockid() returns 0; on error, it returns one of the positive error numbers listed in ERRORS.
| ENOSYS | The kernel does not support obtaining the per-process CPU-time clock of another process, and pid does not specify the calling process. | ||
| EPERM | The caller does not have permission to access the CPU-time clock of the process specified by pid. (Specified as an optional error in POSIX.1-2001; does not occur on Linux unless the kernel does not support obtaining the per-process CPU-time clock of another process.) | ||
| ESRCH | There is no process with the ID pid. | 
The clock_getcpuclockid() function is available in glibc since version 2.2.
POSIX.1-2001.
Calling clock_gettime(2) with the clock ID obtained by a call to clock_getcpuclockid() with a pid of 0, is the same as using the clock ID CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID.
The example program below obtains the CPU-time clock ID of the process whose ID is given on the command line, and then uses clock_gettime(2) to obtain the time on that clock. An example run is the following:
$ ./a.out
1 # Show CPU clock of init process 
CPU-time clock for PID 1 is 2.213466748 seconds
