NAME

pthread_attr_getstackaddr − Obtains the stack address attribute of the specified thread attributes object

SYNOPSIS

#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_attr_getstackaddr(
        const pthread_attr_t ∗attr,
        void ∗stackaddr );

LIBRARY

DECthreads POSIX 1003.1c Library (libpthread.so)

STANDARDS

Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:

IEEE Std 1003.1c-1995, POSIX System Application Program Interface

PARAMETERS

attrAddress of the thread attributes object whose stack address attribute is obtained. 

stackaddr
Receives the value of the stack address attribute of the thread attributes object specified by attr. 

DESCRIPTION

This routine obtains the value of the stack address attribute of the thread attributes object specified in the attr argument and stores it in the location specified by the stackaddr argument. The specified attributes object must already be initialized at the time this routine is called. 

The stack address attribute of a thread attributes object points to the origin of the stack for a new thread. 

NOTES

The value of the stack address attribute of a particular thread attributes object does not necessarily correspond to the actual stack origin of any existing thread in your multithreaded program. 

RETURN VALUES

If an error condition occurs, this routine returns an integer value indicating the type of error. Possible return values are as follows:

0Successful completion. 

ERRORS

None
