iv_thread(3) ivykis programmer's manual iv_thread(3) NAME iv_thread_create, iv_thread_set_debug_state - ivykis thread convenience functions SYNOPSIS #include <iv_thread.h> int iv_thread_create(const char *name, void (*start_routine)(void *), void *arg); void iv_thread_set_debug_state(int state); DESCRIPTION iv_thread_create is a wrapper around pthread_create(3) which will maintain an ivykis main loop reference in the calling thread (which must be an ivykis(3) thread, i.e. have had iv_init(3) called in it) for as long as the created thread is alive. Maintaining a reference on the calling thread's ivykis event loop makes sure that the calling thread will not return from its ivykis main loop be- fore the created thread exits, as that could cause cleanup still happening in the created thread to be interrupted when the calling thread subse- quently calls exit(3). The created thread need not be an ivykis thread. Enabling debugging by calling iv_thread_set_debug with a nonzero argument will print a debug message to standard error whenever a thread is created via iv_thread_create, whenever a thread so created terminates, and whenever destruction of such a thread is signaled back to the calling thread. For inter-thread signaling, iv_thread uses iv_event(3). SEE ALSO ivykis(3), iv_event(3), exit(3), pthread_create(3) ivykis 2010-09-13 iv_thread(3)
