|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The first call to
|
|
|
|
.Fn pthread_once
|
|
|
|
by any thread in a process, with a given
|
|
|
|
.Fa once_control ,
|
|
|
|
will call the
|
|
|
|
.Fn init_routine
|
|
|
|
with no arguments. Subsequent calls to
|
|
|
|
.Fn pthread_once
|
|
|
|
with the same
|
|
|
|
.Fa once_control
|
|
|
|
will not call the
|
|
|
|
.Fn init_routine .
|
|
|
|
On return from
|
|
|
|
.Fn pthread_once ,
|
|
|
|
it is guaranteed that
|
|
|
|
.Fn init_routine
|
|
|
|
has completed. The
|
|
|
|
.Fa once_control
|
|
|
|
parameter is used to determine whether the associated initialization
|
|
|
|
routine has been called.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The function
|
|
|
|
.Fn pthread_once
|
|
|
|
is not a cancellation point. However, if
|
|
|
|
.Fn init_routine
|
|
|
|
is a cancellation point and is cancelled, the effect on
|
|
|
|
.Fa once_control is as if
|
|
|
|
.Fn pthread_once
|
|
|
|
was never called.
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The constant
|
|
|
|
.Fa PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT
|
|
|
|
is defined by header
|
|
|
|
.Aq Pa pthread.h .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
The behavior of
|
|
|
|
.Fn pthread_once
|
|
|
|
is undefined if
|
|
|
|
.Fa once_control
|
|
|
|
has automatic storage duration or is not initialized by
|
|
|
|
.Fa PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT .
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
If successful, the
|
|
|
|
.Fn pthread_once
|
|
|
|
function will return zero. Otherwise an error number will be returned to
|
|
|
|
indicate the error.
|
|
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
|
|
None.
