Purpose: To compare two thread identifiers. Basic Usage Example: if (pthread_equal(thread1, thread2)) { /* Do something */ }

Purpose: To ensure that a piece of initialization code is executed only once. Basic Usage Example: pthread_once(&once_control, init_routine);

Purpose: To detach a thread, indicating that it should not be joined. Basic Usage Example: pthread_detach(thread);

Purpose: To remove the most recently installed cleanup handler. Basic Usage Example: pthread_cleanup_pop(execute);

Purpose: To block the calling thread until the specified thread terminates. Basic Usage Example: pthread_join(thread, NULL);

Purpose: To unblock at least one of the threads that are blocked on the specified condition variable. Basic Usage Example: pthread_cond_signal(&cond);

Purpose: To block a thread until a specific condition is signaled. Basic Usage Example: pthread_cond_wait(&cond, &mutex);

Purpose: To destroy thread attributes and free any resources. Basic Usage Example: pthread_attr_destroy(&attr);

Purpose: To delete a thread-specific data key. Basic Usage Example: pthread_key_delete(key);

Purpose: To register a cleanup handler for the thread. Basic Usage Example: pthread_cleanup_push(handler, argument);

Purpose: To set the cancelability state of the calling thread. Basic Usage Example: pthread_setcancelstate(PTHREAD_CANCEL_ENABLE, NULL);

Purpose: To initialize thread attributes to default values. Basic Usage Example: pthread_attr_init(&attr);

Purpose: To unblock all threads currently blocked on the specified condition variable. Basic Usage Example: pthread_cond_broadcast(&cond);

Purpose: To set the detach state attribute of a thread. Basic Usage Example: pthread_attr_setdetachstate(&attr, PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE);

Purpose: To initialize a thread barrier. Basic Usage Example: pthread_barrier_init(&barrier, NULL, 3);

Purpose: To release a mutex lock after a critical section is executed. Basic Usage Example: pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);

Purpose: To obtain the ID of the calling thread. Basic Usage Example: pthread_t this_thread = pthread_self();

Purpose: To create thread-specific data keys. Basic Usage Example: pthread_key_create(&key, destructor);

Purpose: To request that a thread be canceled. Basic Usage Example: pthread_cancel(thread);
