💅 PTHREAD_ATTR_SETCREATESUSPEND_NP(3) — Library Functions Manual 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Library Functions Manual page for PTHREAD_ATTR_SETCREATESUSPEND_NP(3) — it’s giving very specific pthread energy, and we’re gonna get into it. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

pthread_attr_setcreatesuspend_np — prepare attribute for creation of suspended thread

---

🌸 LIBRARY 🌸

POSIX Threads Library (libpthread, -lpthread) — yes, that’s the one, bestie. 🫶

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <pthread_np.h>

int
pthread_attr_setcreatesuspend_np(pthread_attr_t *attr);

literally copy it exactly like that, no cap. 💅

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so pthread_attr_setcreatesuspend_np() instructs pthread_create(3) that the thread created with the attr attribute should be created and left in a suspended state until it’s explicitly resumed by the call to pthread_resume_np() or pthread_resume_all_np(). 🧚

that’s the whole vibe: it sets up the attribute so the new thread starts suspended, and it stays suspended until somebody explicitly resumes it. iconic. 👑

---

⭐ RETURN VALUES ⭐

pthread_attr_setcreatesuspend_np() returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error. periodt. 💀

🔥 ERRORS 🔥

pthread_attr_setcreatesuspend_np() will fail if:

• [EINVAL] — The value specified by attr is invalid. 🚨
