thrd_exit
—
terminate a thread
#include
<threads.h>
_Noreturn void
thrd_exit
(int res);
The
thrd_exit
()
function terminates the calling thread, in a similar way that
exit(3C) terminates the calling
process. If the calling thread has not been detached, then the exit status
information provided in res is saved and can be
retrieved by the use of the
thrd_join(3C) function.
When the thread exits, all signals will be blocked and various destructors and clean up handlers will be called, such as those registered with tss_create(3C). The act of thread termination does not cause any process-wide resources, such as mutexes and file descriptors to be released.
If a thread, other than the thread in which
main
() was
first invoked returns from its starting routine, it will implicitly call
thrd_exit
() and set the return value to be its exit
status.
The thrd_exit
() function does not return,
the calling thread is terminated.
