PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the  corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
       pthread_barrierattr_getpshared,  pthread_barrierattr_setpshared  -  get
       and  set  the process-shared attribute of the barrier attributes object
       (ADVANCED REALTIME THREADS)
SYNOPSIS
       #include <pthread.h>

       int pthread_barrierattr_getpshared(const pthread_barrierattr_t *
              restrict attr, int *restrict pshared);
       int pthread_barrierattr_setpshared(pthread_barrierattr_t *attr,
              int pshared);

DESCRIPTION
       The pthread_barrierattr_getpshared() function shall obtain the value of
       the  process-shared  attribute from the attributes object referenced by
       attr.  The  pthread_barrierattr_setpshared()  function  shall  set  the
       process-shared attribute in an initialized attributes object referenced
       by attr.
       The process-shared attribute is set to PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED to permit
       a barrier to be operated upon by any thread that has access to the mem-
       ory where the barrier is allocated. If the process-shared attribute  is
       PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE,  the  barrier  shall  only be operated upon by
       threads created within the same process as the thread that  initialized
       the  barrier;  if  threads of different processes attempt to operate on
       such a barrier, the behavior is undefined. The  default  value  of  the
       attribute    shall    be    PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE.   Both   constants
       PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED  and  PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE  are  defined   in
       <pthread.h>.
       Additional attributes, their default values, and the names of the asso-
       ciated functions to get and set those attribute values are  implementa-
       tion-defined.
RETURN VALUE
       If  successful,  the  pthread_barrierattr_getpshared()  function  shall
       return zero and store the value of the process-shared attribute of attr
       into  the  object  referenced  by  the pshared parameter. Otherwise, an
       error number shall be returned to indicate the error.
       If  successful,  the  pthread_barrierattr_setpshared()  function  shall
       return  zero;  otherwise, an error number shall be returned to indicate
       the error.
ERRORS
       These functions may fail if:
       EINVAL The value specified by attr is invalid.

       The pthread_barrierattr_setpshared() function may fail if:
       EINVAL The new value specified for the process-shared attribute is  not
              one    of    the    legal   values   PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED   or
              PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE.

       These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].

EXAMPLES
       None.
APPLICATION USAGE
       The  pthread_barrierattr_getpshared()   and   pthread_barrierattr_setp-
       shared() functions are part of the Barriers option and need not be pro-
       vided on all implementations.
RATIONALE
       None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
