PTHREAD_CONDATTR(3) NetBSD Library Functions Manual PTHREAD_CONDATTR(3)
NAME
pthread_condattr_init -- condition attribute operations
LIBRARY
POSIX Threads Library (libpthread, -lpthread)
SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h>
int
pthread_condattr_init(pthread_condattr_t *attr);
int
pthread_condattr_destroy(pthread_condattr_t *attr);
DESCRIPTION
Condition attribute objects are used to specify parameters to the
pthread_cond_init(3) function. The pthread_condattr_init() function ini-
tializes a condition attribute object with the default attributes and the
pthread_condattr_destroy() function destroys a condition attribute
object.
RETURN VALUES
If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is
returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
No errors are defined for pthread_condattr_init().
The pthread_condattr_destroy() function may fail if:
[EINVAL] The value specified by attr is invalid.
SEE ALSO
pthread_cond_init(3)
STANDARDS
Both functions conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'').
CAVEATS
The usefulness of the functions is questionable as the NetBSD implementa-
tion does not support any non-default attributes. These functions do not
conform to the revision of the standard, which mandates two additional
attributes, the clock attribute and the process-shared attribute.
