Thread attributes are used to specify parameters to (). One attribute object can be used in multiple calls to pthread_create(), with or without modifications between calls.

The () function initializes attr with all the default thread attributes.

The () function destroys attr.

The () functions set the attribute that corresponds to each function name.

The () functions copy the value of the attribute that corresponds to each function name to the location pointed to by the second function parameter.

If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.

The pthread_attr_init() function will fail if:

[]
Out of memory.

The pthread_attr_destroy() function will fail if:

[]
Invalid value for attr.
