cond_broadcast(3synch)                        cond_broadcast(3synch)


       NAME
             cond_broadcast - broadcast a wake up to all threads waiting on
             a condition variable

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [options] -Kthread file
             #include <synch.h>
             int cond_broadcast(cond_t *cond);

          Parameters
             cond    pointer to condition variable to be broadcast

       DESCRIPTION
             cond_broadcast wakes up all threads waiting on the condition
             cond.  If more than one thread is waiting, the order of
             release from the blocked group is scheduling policy-specific
             for/bound threads, and may depend on scheduling parameters for
             multiplexed threads.

             cond_broadcast has no effect if there are no threads waiting
             on cond.

             A cond_broadcast will be more reliable if the associated mutex
             used by waiters is held across the call.

          cond Parameter
             The condition variable denoted by cond must previously have
             been initialized (see cond_init).

          Return Values
             cond_broadcast returns zero for success and an error number
             for failure, as described below.

          Errors
             If any of the following conditions is detected, cond_broadcast
             returns the corresponding value:

             EINVAL   Invalid argument specified.

       USAGE
             See the description of how to use condition variables under
             USAGE on cond_init(3synch).
