Description

Each pthread is created using either the default pthread attribute or a user-specified pthread attribute. These functions query the various fields of a pthread attribute and, if successful, return the result in the buffer specified. In all cases, the values returned reflect the expected fields of a pthread created with the attribute specified.

pthdb_attr_detachstate reports if the created pthread is detachable (PDS_DETACHED) or joinable (PDS_JOINABLE). PDS_NOTSUP is reserved for unexpected results.

pthdb_attr_addr reports the address of the pthread_attr_t.

pthdb_attr_guardsize reports the guard size for the attribute.

pthdb_attr_inheritsched reports whether the created pthread will run with scheduling policy and scheduling parameters from the created pthread (PIS_INHERIT), or from the attribute (PIS_EXPLICIT). PIS_NOTSUP is reserved for unexpected results.

pthdb_attr_schedparam reports the scheduling parameters associated with the pthread attribute. See pthdb_attr_inheritsched for additional information.

pthdb_attr_schedpolicy reports whether the scheduling policy associated with the pthread attribute is other (SP_OTHER), first in first out (SP_FIFO), or round robin (SP_RR). SP_NOTSUP is reserved for unexpected results.

pthdb_attr_schedpriority reports the scheduling priority associated with the pthread attribute. See pthdb_attr_inheritsched for additional information.

pthdb_attr_scope reports whether the created pthread will have process scope (PS_PROCESS) or system scope (PS_SYSTEM). PS_NOTSUP is reserved for unexpected results.

pthdb_attr_stackaddr reports the address of the stack.

pthdb_attr_stacksize reports the size of the stack.

pthdb_attr_suspendstate reports whether the created pthread will be suspended (PSS_SUSPENDED) or not (PSS_UNSUSPENDED). PSS_NOTSUP is reserved for unexpected results.
