pthread_getconcurrency()--Get Process Concurrency Level

 #include <pthread.h>  
 int pthread_getconcurrency();  

The pthread_getconcurrency() function retrieves the current concurrency level for the process. A value of 0 indicates that the threads implementation chooses the concurrency level that best suits the application. A concurrency level greater than zero indicates that the application wishes to inform the system of its desired concurrency level.

The concurrency level is not used by the i5/OS threads implementation. Each user thread is always bound to a kernel thread.
