thr_minstack(3thread)                          thr_minstack(3thread)


       NAME
             thr_minstack - return the minimum stack size for a thread

       SYNOPSIS
             cc [options] -Kthread file
             #include <thread.h>
             size_t thr_minstack(void);

       DESCRIPTION
             thr_minstack returns the implementation-defined value for the
             minimum stack size for a thread required by
             thr_create(3thread).

          Return Values
             thr_minstack returns the minimum stack size for a thread.

          Errors
             None

       USAGE
             The value returned by thr_minstack can be used as the
             stack_size argument to thr_create when the new thread needs
             only a minimal stack.  Threads that will call any functions,
             or that need much space for local variables, must use a larger
             stack.
