<P>The <B>pthread_barrier_wait</B> function shall synchronize
|
|||
|
participating threads at the barrier referenced by <I>barrier</I>.
|
|||
|
The calling thread shall block until the required number of threads
|
|||
|
have called <B>pthread_barrier_wait</B> specifying the barrier.
|
|||
|
</P>
|
|||
|
<P>When the required number of threads have called
|
|||
|
<B>pthread_barrier_wait</B> specifying the barrier, the constant
|
|||
|
<B>PTHREAD_BARRIER_SERIAL_THREAD</B> shall be returned to one
|
|||
|
unspecified thread and zero shall be returned to each of the
|
|||
|
remaining threads. At this point, the barrier shall be reset to the
|
|||
|
state it had as a result of the most recent <A HREF="pthread_barrier_init.html"><B>pthread_barrier_init</B>(3)</A>
|
|||
|
function that referenced it.
|
|||
|
</P>
|
|||
|
<P>The constant <B>PTHREAD_BARRIER_SERIAL_THREAD</B> is defined in
|
|||
|
<I><pthread.h></I> and its value shall be distinct from any
|
|||
|
other value returned by <B>pthread_barrier_wait</B> .
|
|||
|
</P>
|
|||
|
<P>The results are undefined if this function is called with an
|
|||
|
uninitialized barrier.
|
|||
|
</P>
|
|||
|
<P>If a signal is delivered to a thread blocked on a barrier, upon
|
|||
|
return from the signal handler the thread shall resume waiting at the
|
|||
|
barrier if the barrier wait has not completed (that is, if the
|
|||
|
required number of threads have not arrived at the barrier during the
|
|||
|
execution of the signal handler); otherwise, the thread shall
|
|||
|
continue as normal from the completed barrier wait. Until the thread
|
|||
|
in the signal handler returns from it, it is unspecified whether
|
|||
|
other threads may proceed past the barrier once they have all reached
|
|||
|
it.
|
|||
|
</P>
|
|||
|
<P>A thread that has blocked on a barrier shall not prevent any
|
|||
|
unblocked thread that is eligible to use the same processing
|
|||
|
resources from eventually making forward progress in its execution.
|
|||
|
Eligibility for processing resources shall be determined by the
|
|||
|
scheduling policy.

single (arbitrary) thread synchronized at the barrier and zero for
