|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <pthread.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn pthread_join "pthread_t thread" "void **value_ptr"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn pthread_join
|
|
function suspends execution of the calling thread until the target
|
|
.Fa thread
|
|
terminates unless the target
|
|
.Fa thread
|
|
has already terminated.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On return from a successful
|
|
.Fn pthread_join
|
|
call with a non-NULL
|
|
.Fa value_ptr
|
|
argument, the value passed to
|
|
.Fn pthread_exit
|
|
by the terminating thread is stored in the location referenced by
|
|
.Fa value_ptr .
|
|
When a
|
|
.Fn pthread_join
|
|
returns successfully, the target thread has been terminated.
|
|
The results
|
|
of multiple simultaneous calls to
|
|
.Fn pthread_join
|
|
specifying the same target thread are undefined.
|
|
If the thread calling
|
|
.Fn pthread_join
|
|
is cancelled, then the target thread is not detached.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A thread that has exited but remains unjoined counts against
|
|
[_POSIX_THREAD_THREADS_MAX].
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If successful, the
|
|
.Fn pthread_join
|
|
function will return zero.
|
|
Otherwise an error number will be returned to
|
|
indicate the error.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
.Fn pthread_join
|
|
will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EINVAL
|
|
The implementation has detected that the value specified by
|
|
.Fa thread
|
|
does not refer to a joinable thread.
|
|
.It Bq Er ESRCH
|
|
No thread could be found corresponding to that specified by the given
|
|
thread ID,
|
|
.Fa thread .
|
|
.It Bq Er EDEADLK
|
|
A deadlock was detected or the value of
|
|
.Fa thread
|
|
specifies the calling thread.
