PTHREAD_MUTEXATTR_GETPSHAREPOSIX Programmer's PTHREAD_MUTEXATTR_GETPSHARED(3P)

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_mutexattr_getpshared, pthread_mutexattr_setpshared  -  get  and
       set the process-shared attribute
SYNOPSIS
       #include <pthread.h>
       int pthread_mutexattr_getpshared(const pthread_mutexattr_t *
              restrict attr, int *restrict pshared);
       int pthread_mutexattr_setpshared(pthread_mutexattr_t *attr,
              int pshared);

DESCRIPTION
       The  pthread_mutexattr_getpshared()  function shall obtain the value of
       the process-shared attribute from the attributes object  referenced  by
       attr.   The   pthread_mutexattr_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 mutex to be operated upon by any thread that has access to the memory
       where  the mutex is allocated, even if the mutex is allocated in memory
       that is shared by multiple processes. If the  process-shared  attribute
       is  PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE,  the  mutex shall only be operated upon by
       threads created within the same process as the thread that  initialized
       the mutex; if threads of differing processes attempt to operate on such
       a mutex, the behavior is undefined. The default value of the  attribute
       shall be PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE.
RETURN VALUE
       Upon successful completion, pthread_mutexattr_setpshared() shall return
       zero; otherwise, an error number shall  be  returned  to  indicate  the
       error.
       Upon successful completion, pthread_mutexattr_getpshared() 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.
ERRORS
       The pthread_mutexattr_getpshared()  and  pthread_mutexattr_setpshared()
       functions may fail if:
       EINVAL The value specified by attr is invalid.

       The pthread_mutexattr_setpshared() function may fail if:
       EINVAL The  new  value specified for the attribute is outside the range
              of legal values for that attribute.

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