PTHREAD_RWLOCKATTR_GETPSHARED(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual NAME pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared - get the process shared attribute LIBRARY POSIX Threads Library (libpthread, -lpthread) SYNOPSIS #include <pthread.h> int pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared(const pthread_rwlockattr_t *restrict attr, int *restrict pshared); DESCRIPTION The pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared() function is used to get the process shared setting of a read/write lock attribute object. The setting is returned via pshared, and may be one of two values: PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED Any thread of any process that has access to the memory where the read/write lock resides can manipulate the lock. PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE Only threads created within the same process as the thread that initialized the read/write lock can manipulate the lock. This is the default value. RETURN VALUES If successful, the pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared() function will return zero. Otherwise an error number will be returned to indicate the error. ERRORS The pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared() function may fail if: [EINVAL] The value specified by attr is invalid. SEE ALSO pthread_rwlock_init(3), pthread_rwlockattr_init(3), pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared(3) STANDARDS The pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared() function is expected to conform to Version 2 of the Single UNIX Specification ("SUSv2").
