PTHREAD_SUSPEND_NP(3)  FreeBSD Library Functions Manual	 PTHREAD_SUSPEND_NP(3)

NAME
     pthread_suspend_np	-- suspend a thread

LIBRARY
     POSIX Threads Library (libpthread,	-lpthread)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <pthread_np.h>

     int
     pthread_suspend_np(pthread_t tid);

DESCRIPTION
     The pthread_suspend_np() function,	called on an active thread, causes it
     to	suspend.

     It	is not safe for	the caller of the pthread_suspend_np() function	to use
     any non-async signal safe functions, except pthread_resume_np(3), until
     suspended thread is resumed, unless measures are taken to ensure that the
     thread is suspended at a safe point.

RETURN VALUES
     If	successful, pthread_suspend_np() function returns 0.  Otherwise, an
     error number is returned to indicate the error.

ERRORS
     The pthread_suspend_np() function will fail if:

     [EDEADLK]		An attempt was made to suspend the current thread.

     [EINVAL]		The value specified by the tid argument	is invalid.

     [ESRCH]		No thread could	be found corresponding to the thread
			ID specified by	the tid	argument.
