PTHREAD_SWITCH_ADD_NP(3) BSD Library Functions Manual PTHREAD_SWITCH_ADD_NP(3)NAME
pthread_switch_add_np, pthread_switch_delete_np -- thread context switches debugging primitives
LIBRARY
POSIX Threads Library (libpthread, -lpthread)
SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread_np.h>
int
pthread_switch_add_np(pthread_switch_routine_t routine);
int
pthread_switch_delete_np(pthread_switch_routine_t routine);
DESCRIPTION
An application is allowed to monitor the thread context switches inside the threading library. An application can install a routine that
gets called every time a thread (explicitly created by an application with the pthread_create(3) function) gets the context switched. The
routine is passed the thread IDs of the threads that are being switched in and out. Installation and removal of these hooks may be done
using the pthread_switch_add_np() and pthread_switch_delete_np() functions respectively.
RETURN VALUES
If successful, these functions return 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The pthread_switch_add_np() may fail if:
[EINVAL] NULL pointer was passed in the routine argument.
The pthread_switch_delete_np() may fail if:
[EINVAL] The routine argument is different from the argument previously passed to the pthread_switch_add_np() function.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning .
Does this mean that it will run on any shell ?
Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ? (16 Replies)
