The new thread applies the -function |start_routine| passing it |arg| as first argument. The new -thread terminates either explicitly, by calling !pthread_exit!(3), -or implicitly, by returning from the |start_routine| function. The -latter case is equivalent to calling !pthread_exit!(3) with the result -returned by |start_routine| as exit code. - -The |attr| argument specifies thread attributes to be applied to the -new thread. See !pthread_attr_init!(3) for a complete list of thread -attributes. The |attr| argument can also be !NULL!, in which case -default attributes are used: the created thread is joinable (not -detached) and has default (non real-time) scheduling policy. - -.SH "RETURN VALUE" -On success, the identifier of the newly created thread is stored in -the location pointed by the |thread| argument, and a 0 is returned. On -error, a non-zero error code is returned. - -.SH ERRORS -.TP -!EAGAIN! -not enough system resources to create a process for the new thread. -.TP -!EAGAIN! -more than !PTHREAD_THREADS_MAX! threads are already active. - -.SH AUTHOR -Xavier Leroy <Xavier.Leroy@inria.fr> - -.SH "SEE ALSO" -!pthread_exit!(3), -!pthread_join!(3), -!pthread_detach!(3), -!pthread_attr_init!(3). |
