PTHREAD_GETCPUCLOCKID(3) Linux Programmer's Manual PTHREAD_GETCPUCLOCKID(3)
pthread_getcpuclockid - retrieve ID of a thread's CPU time clock
#include <pthread.h>
#include <time.h>
int pthread_getcpuclockid(pthread_t thread, clockid_t *clock_id);
Compile and link with -pthread.
The pthread_getcpuclockid() function returns the clock ID for the CPU
time clock of the thread thread.
On success, this function returns 0; on error, it returns a nonzero
error number.
ENOENT Per-thread CPU time clocks are not supported by the system.
ESRCH No thread with the ID thread could be found.
This function is available in glibc since version 2.2.
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
attributes(7).

POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008.
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
