pthread.h --- threadsSYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h>
DESCRIPTION
The <pthread.h> header shall define the following symbolic constants:PTHREAD_BARRIER_SERIAL_THREAD PTHREAD_CANCEL_ASYNCHRONOUS PTHREAD_CANCEL_ENABLE PTHREAD_CANCEL_DEFERRED PTHREAD_CANCEL_DISABLE PTHREAD_CANCELED PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT PTHREAD_PRIO_NONE PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE PTHREAD_SCOPE_PROCESS PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEMThe <pthread.h> header shall define the following compile-time constant expressions valid as initializers for the following types:
| Name | Initializer for Type |
| PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER | pthread_cond_t |
| PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER | pthread_mutex_t |
| PTHREAD_RWLOCK_INITIALIZER | pthread_rwlock_t |
