.SH SYNOPSIS
\f4#include <sys/frs.h>\f1
.PP
\f4int frs_join (frs_t\(** \f2frs\fP);\f1
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
\f4frs_join\fP joins the calling activity thread/process with the
target \f2frs\fP, informing the frame scheduler that it is ready to
be scheduled.
.P
All enqueued activity threads/processes [see \f4frs_enqueue\fP(3)]
of participating frame schedulers must join its frame scheduler object
before frame rate scheduling can commence.
.P
Controller and dequeued threads/processes cannot call \f4frs_join\fP.
.P
\f4frs_join\fP will fail if one or more of the following
conditions are true:
.TP 15
