How many levels of thread priorities are there?

I was wondering how many levels of thread priorities are there?. Is it dependent on the OS that uses posix ?

It depends on the implementation used by your OS. You should use

int sched_get_priority_min(int policy);

int sched_get_priority_max(int policy);

to find the range for a particular scheduling policy on your platform.
