NAME
thread_safety - list of libc, libpthread and libgen interfaces that
are: Not Thread-Safe, Cancellation Points, Cancel Safe, Async Signal
Safe, or Async Cancel Safe
DESCRIPTION
Refer to this manpage when writing thread-safe applications using libc,
libpthread and libgen interfaces. This manpage gives the list of libc,
libpthread and libgen interfaces that are: Not Thread-Safe, Cancella‐
tion Points, Cancel Safe, Async Signal Safe, or Async Cancel Safe.
Interfaces That Are Not Thread-Safe
All the interfaces are thread-safe except:
bgets() bufsplit() copylist()
dbmclose() dbminit() delete()
endmntent() fattach() fdetach()
fetch() firstkey() getc_unlocked()
getchar_unlocked() getcontext() getopt()
inet_ntop() inet_pton() isastream()
makecontext() memcntl() nextkey()
putc_unlocked() putchar_unlocked() setcontext()
setmntent() store() strord()
strtold() system() swapcontext()
NOTE: If an interface has a counterpart, then the interface is thread-
safe, and the non-is not thread-safe.
Cancellation Points
Cancellation Points can occur when a thread is executing in the follow‐
ing interfaces:
_pututline() accept() aio_suspend()
