Which is more expensive ?

I have the following code snippet's. Which one among these would be more expensive ? #1 for (int fd = 0; fd <= 1024; ++fd) close(fd); #2 for (int fd = 0; fd <= 1024; fd += 8) { close(fd); close(fd+1); close(fd+2);...

calling pthread_self (on ubuntu), expensive?

Hi all, Is anyone aware of what operations are involved when a call to pthread_self() is made, obtaining the unique thread ID on a Ubuntu system (or even any Linux flavour)? Specifically, to retrieve the thread id, is there any locking required or atomic operations? I'm building an...

ACL_GET_BRAND_NP(3)					   BSD Library Functions Manual 				       ACL_GET_BRAND_NP(3)

NAME

     acl_get_brand_np -- retrieve the ACL brand from an ACL entry

LIBRARY

     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/acl.h>

     int
     acl_get_brand_np(acl_t acl, int *brand_p);

DESCRIPTION

     The acl_get_brand_np() function is a non-portable call that returns the ACL brand for the ACL acl.  Upon successful completion, the location
     referred to by the argument brand_p will be set to the ACL brand of the ACL acl.

     Branding is an internal mechanism intended to prevent mixing POSIX.1e and NFSv4 entries by mistake.  It's also used by the libc to determine
     how to print out the ACL.	The first call to function that is specific for one particular brand - POSIX.1e or NFSv4 - "brands" the ACL.
     After that, calling function specific to another brand will result in error.

RETURN VALUES

     The acl_get_brand_np() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to
     indicate the error.

ERRORS

     The acl_get_brand_np() function fails if:

     [EINVAL]		Argument acl does not point to a valid ACL.

SEE ALSO

     acl(3), posix1e(3)

STANDARDS

     POSIX.1e is described in IEEE POSIX.1e draft 17.

HISTORY

     POSIX.1e support was introduced in FreeBSD 4.0.  The acl_get_brand_np() function was added in FreeBSD 8.0.

AUTHORS

     The acl_get_brand_np() function was written by Edward Tomasz Napierala <trasz@FreeBSD.org>.
