One attribute object can be used in multiple calls to .Fn pthread_create , with or without modifications between calls.

p The .Fn pthread_attr_init function initializes .Fa attr with all the default thread attributes.

p The .Fn pthread_attr_destroy function destroys .Fa attr .

p The .Fn pthread_attr_set* functions set the attribute that corresponds to each function name.

p The .Fn pthread_attr_get* functions copy the value of the attribute that corresponds to each function name to the location pointed to by the second function parameter. .Sh RETURN VALUES If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error. .Sh ERRORS The .Fn pthread_attr_init function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er ENOMEM Out of memory. .El

p The .Fn pthread_attr_destroy function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL Invalid value for .Fa attr . .El

p The .Fn pthread_attr_setstacksize and .Fn pthread_attr_setstack functions will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL .Fa stacksize is less than .Dv PTHREAD_STACK_MIN . .El

p The .Fn pthread_attr_setdetachstate function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL Invalid value for .Fa detachstate . .El

p The .Fn pthread_attr_setinheritsched function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL Invalid value for .Fa attr . .El

p The .Fn pthread_attr_setschedparam function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL Invalid value for .Fa attr . t Bq Er ENOTSUP Invalid value for .Fa param . .El

p The .Fn pthread_attr_setschedpolicy function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL Invalid value for .Fa attr . t Bq Er ENOTSUP Invalid or unsupported value for .Fa policy . .El

p The .Fn pthread_attr_setscope function will fail if: l -tag -width Er t Bq Er EINVAL Invalid value for .Fa attr . t Bq Er ENOTSUP Invalid or unsupported value for .Fa contentionscope . .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr pthread_attr_affinity_np 3 , .Xr pthread_attr_get_np 3 , .Xr pthread_create 3 .Sh STANDARDS .Fn pthread_attr_init , .Fn pthread_attr_destroy , .Fn pthread_attr_setstacksize , .Fn pthread_attr_getstacksize , .Fn pthread_attr_setstackaddr , .Fn pthread_attr_getstackaddr , .Fn pthread_attr_setdetachstate , and .Fn pthread_attr_getdetachstate functions conform to .St -p1003.1-96
