_LWP_EXIT(2) BSD System Calls Manual _LWP_EXIT(2) NAME
_lwp_exit -- terminate the calling light-weight process LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <lwp.h> void _lwp_exit(void); DESCRIPTION
_lwp_exit() terminates the calling LWP. If it is the last LWP in the process, the process exits with a status of 0. If the LWP was not cre- ated in a detached state, then the system will not reclaim its LWP ID until its status is reported to another LWP in the process via _lwp_wait(2). RETURN VALUES
_lwp_exit() can never return. SEE ALSO

_LWP_KILL(2) BSD System Calls Manual _LWP_KILL(2) NAME
_lwp_kill -- send a signal to a light-weight process LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc) SYNOPSIS
#include <lwp.h> int _lwp_kill(lwpid_t lwp, int sig); DESCRIPTION
_lwp_kill() sends the signal specified by sig to the light-weight process specified by lwp. If the sig argument is given as 0 (zero), _lwp_kill will test for the existence of the target LWP, but will take no further action. Job control signals and uncatchable signals can not be directed to a specific LWP: if posted with _lwp_kill, they will affect all LWPs in the process. Signals will be posted successfully to suspended LWPs, but will not be handled further until the LWP has been continued. RETURN VALUES
A 0 value indicates that the call succeeded. A -1 return value indicates an error occurred and errno is set to indicate the reason. ERRORS
[EINVAL] sig is not a valid signal number. [ESRCH] No LWP can be found in the current process corresponding to that specified by lwp. SEE ALSO
