PTHREAD_SET_NAME_NP(3)	  OpenBSD Programmer's Manual	PTHREAD_SET_NAME_NP(3)

NAME
     pthread_set_name_np - set the name of a thread

SYNOPSIS
     #include <pthread.h>
     #include <pthread_np.h>

     void
     pthread_set_name_np(pthread_t thread, char *name);

DESCRIPTION
     The pthread_set_name_np() function associates name with thread.  This can
     be useful for debugging, as the name is displayed in the thread status as
     displayed when the process receives the SIGINFO signal.

     The string pointed to by name is copied, and so need not be valid for the
     life of the thread.

SEE ALSO
     pthreads(3)

STANDARDS
     The pthread_set_name_np() function is non-portable and may not be
     supported with the above semantics on other POSIX systems.
