pthread_barrierattr_setpshared()
Set the value of a barrier's process-shared attribute
Synopsis:
#include <sync.h>
int pthread_barrierattr_setpshared(
pthread_barrierattr_t * attr
int pshared );
Arguments:
- attr
- A pointer to the pthread_barrierattr_t object whose attribute you want to set. You must have initialized this object by calling pthread_barrierattr_init() before calling pthread_barrierattr_setpshared().
- pshared
- The new value of the process-shared attribute; one of:
- PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED — allow a barrier to be operated upon by any thread that has access to the memory where the barrier is allocated.
- PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE (default behavior) — allow a barrier to be operated on only by threads created within the same process as the thread that initialized the barrier. If threads of different processes attempt to operate on such a barrier, the behavior is as if PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED were set.
