pthread_kill - send a signal to a thread
Návod, kniha: POSIX Programmer's Manual
#include <signal.h>
int pthread_kill(pthread_t
thread, int
sig );
The
pthread_kill() function shall request that a signal be delivered to
the specified thread.
As in
kill(), if
sig is zero, error checking shall be performed
but no signal shall actually be sent.
Upon successful completion, the function shall return a value of zero.
Otherwise, the function shall return an error number. If the
pthread_kill() function fails, no signal shall be sent.
The
pthread_kill() function shall fail if:
- ESRCH
- No thread could be found corresponding to that specified by
the given thread ID.
- EINVAL
- The value of the sig argument is an invalid or
unsupported signal number.
The
pthread_kill() function shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
The following sections are informative.
None.
The
pthread_kill() function provides a mechanism for asynchronously
directing a signal at a thread in the calling process. This could be used, for
example, by one thread to affect broadcast delivery of a signal to a set of
threads.
Note that
pthread_kill() only causes the signal to be handled in the
context of the given thread; the signal action (termination or stopping)
affects the process as a whole.
None.
None.
