LIBRT(3LIB) Interface Libraries LIBRT(3LIB)

librt, libposix4 - POSIX.1b Realtime Extensions library

cc [ flag... ] file... -lrt [ library... ]

Historically, functions in this library provided many of the interfaces specified by the POSIX.1b Realtime Extension. See standards(7). This functionality now resides in libc(3LIB).

This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility for both runtime and compilation environments. The shared object is implemented as a filter on libc.so.1. New application development need not specify -lrt.

The shared objects librt.so.1 and libposix4.so.1 provide the public interfaces defined below. See Intro(3) for additional information on shared object interfaces.

aio_cancel aio_error
aio_fsync aio_read
aio_return aio_suspend
aio_waitn aio_write
clock_getres clock_gettime
clock_nanosleep clock_settime
close fdatasync

mq_close mq_getattr
mq_notify mq_open
mq_receive mq_reltimedreceive_np
