PTHREAD_GETTHREADID_NP(3)

💅 NAME

pthread_getthreadid_np — get the calling thread's integral ID. This is PTHREAD_GETTHREADID_NP(3) from the Library Functions Manual, and she is here to hand you that thread ID, okay bestie?

📚 LIBRARY

POSIX Threads Library (libpthread, -lpthread). That's the library, no cap. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS

#include <pthread_np.h>

int
pthread_getthreadid_np(void);

🦋 DESCRIPTION

Okay so pthread_getthreadid_np() returns the unique integral ID of the calling thread. Its semantics are similar to AIX's pthread_getthreadid_np() function — same kind of energy, iykyk. 💖

🎀 RETURN VALUES

pthread_getthreadid_np() returns the thread integral ID of the calling thread. That's the return value, periodt. ✨

💀 ERRORS

None. Literally none. The error section is empty, bestie — no dramatic plot twist here. 🙈
