NAME

       ldr_atexit - Runs termination functions for shared libraries

LIBRARY

       Library:  standard C Library (libc.{a,so})

SYNOPSIS

       int ldr_atexit(void);

DESCRIPTION

       The  ldr_atexit() function runs termination functions for a process' shared libraries and executable file.  These termination functions are
       determined when a shared library or shared executable file is linked and the functions are handled separately from atexit functions identi-
       fied by the atexit() call.

       The ldr_atexit() function is normally called by the exit() function, but it may also be called directly by an exit handler.

RETURN VALUES

       If the ldr_atexit operation is a success, the function returns a code of 0 (zero).  If the operation fails, the function returns a negative
       error value and errno is set to indicate the error.

NAME

       atexit - register a function to run at process termination or object unloading

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdlib.h>

       int atexit(void (*func)(void));

DESCRIPTION

       The atexit() function registers the function pointed to by func to be called without arguments on normal termination of the program or when
       the object defining the function is unloaded.

       Normal termination occurs by either a call to the exit(3C) function or a return from  main().  Object  unloading  occurs  when  a  call	to
       dlclose(3C) results in the object becoming unreferenced.

       The  number  of functions that may be registered with atexit() is limited only by available memory (refer to the _SC_ATEXIT_MAX argument of
       sysconf(3C)).

       After a successful call to any of the exec(2) functions, any functions previously registered by atexit() are no longer registered.

       On process exit, functions are called in the reverse order of their registration. On  object  unloading,  any  functions  belonging  to	an
       unloadable object are called in the reverse order of their registration.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, the atexit() function returns 0. Otherwise, it returns a non-zero value.

ERRORS

       The atexit() function may fail if:

       ENOMEM	       Insufficient storage space is available.

USAGE

       The functions registered by a call to atexit() must return to ensure that all registered functions are called.

       There is no way for an application to tell how many functions have already been registered with atexit().
