PTHREAD_EQUAL(3) Linux Programmer's Manual PTHREAD_EQUAL(3)
NAME
pthread_equal - compare thread IDs
SYNOPSIS
#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_equal(pthread_t t1, pthread_t t2);
Compile and link with -pthread.
DESCRIPTION
The pthread_equal() function compares two thread identifiers.
RETURN VALUE
If the two thread IDs are equal, pthread_equal() returns a nonzero
value; otherwise, it returns 0.
ERRORS
This function always succeeds.
ATTRIBUTES
Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
The pthread_equal() function is thread-safe.
CONFORMING TO
POSIX.1-2001.
NOTES
The pthread_equal() function is necessary because thread IDs should be
considered opaque: there is no portable way for applications to
directly compare two pthread_t values.
