.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm thr_suspend
|
|
.Nd suspend the calling thread
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/thr.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn thr_suspend "struct timespec *timeout"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Bf -symbolic
|
|
This function is intended for implementing threading.
|
|
Normal applications should use
|
|
.Xr pthread_cond_timedwait 3
|
|
together with
|
|
.Xr pthread_cond_broadcast 3
|
|
for typical safe suspension with cooperation of the thread
|
|
being suspended, or
|
|
.Xr pthread_suspend_np 3
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr pthread_resume_np 3
|
|
in some specific situations, instead.
|
|
.Ef
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn thr_suspend
|
|
system call puts the calling thread in a suspended state, where it is
|
|
not eligible for CPU time.
|
|
This state is exited by another thread calling
|
|
.Xr thr_wake 2 ,
|
|
when the time interval specified by
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
has elapsed,
|
|
or by the delivery of a signal to the suspended thread.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
argument is
|
|
.Dv NULL ,
|
|
the suspended state can be only terminated by explicit
|
|
.Fn thr_wake
|
|
or signal.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a wake from
|
|
.Xr thr_wake 2
|
|
was delivered before the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
call, the thread is not put into a suspended state.
|
|
Instead, the call
|
|
returns immediately without an error.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a thread previously called
|
|
.Xr thr_wake 2
|
|
with its own thread identifier, which resulted in setting the internal kernel
|
|
flag to immediately abort interruptible sleeps with an
|
|
.Er EINTR
|
|
error
|
|
.Po
|
|
see
|
|
.Xr thr_wake 2
|
|
.Pc ,
|
|
the flag is cleared.
|
|
As with
|
|
.Xr thr_wake 2
|
|
called from another thread, the next
|
|
.Nm
|
|
call does not result in suspension.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
.Rv -std thr_suspend
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn thr_suspend
|
|
operation returns the following errors:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er EFAULT
|
|
The memory pointed to by the
|

.Fa timeout
|
|
argument is not valid.
|
|
.It Bq Er ETIMEDOUT
|
|
The specified timeout expired.
|
|
.It Bq Er ETIMEDOUT
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa timeout
|
|
argument specified a zero time interval.
|
|
.It Bq Er EINTR
|
|
The sleep was interrupted by a signal.
