+.SH PROLOG
+This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
+The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
+the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
+or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

+.SH NAME
+.ad l
+pthread_attr_getdetachstate,
+pthread_attr_setdetachstate
+\(em get and set the detachstate attribute
+.ad b
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <pthread.h>
+.P
+int pthread_attr_getdetachstate(const pthread_attr_t *\fIattr\fP,
+ int *\fIdetachstate\fP);
+int pthread_attr_setdetachstate(pthread_attr_t *\fIattr\fP, int \fIdetachstate\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.IR detachstate
+attribute controls whether the thread is created in a detached state.
+If the thread is created detached, then use of the ID of the newly
+created thread by the
+\fIpthread_detach\fR()
+or
+\fIpthread_join\fR()
+function is an error.
+.P
+The
+\fIpthread_attr_getdetachstate\fR()
+and
+\fIpthread_attr_setdetachstate\fR()
+functions, respectively, shall get and set the
+.IR detachstate
+attribute in the
+.IR attr
+object.
+.P
+For
+\fIpthread_attr_getdetachstate\fR(),
+.IR detachstate
+shall be set to either PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED or
+PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE.
+.P
+For
+\fIpthread_attr_setdetachstate\fR(),
+the application shall set
+.IR detachstate
+to either PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED or PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE.
+.P
+A value of PTHREAD_CREATE_DETACHED shall cause all threads created with
+.IR attr
+to be in the detached state, whereas using a value of
+PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE shall cause all threads created with
+.IR attr
+to be in the joinable state. The default value of the
+.IR detachstate
+attribute shall be PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE.
+.P
+The behavior is undefined if the value specified by the
+.IR attr
+argument to
+\fIpthread_attr_getdetachstate\fR()
+or
+\fIpthread_attr_setdetachstate\fR()
+does not refer to an initialized thread attributes object.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Upon successful completion,
+\fIpthread_attr_getdetachstate\fR()
+and
+\fIpthread_attr_setdetachstate\fR()
+shall return a value of 0; otherwise, an error number shall be
+returned to indicate the error.
+.P
+The
+\fIpthread_attr_getdetachstate\fR()
+function stores the value of the
+.IR detachstate
+attribute in
+.IR detachstate
+if successful.
+.SH ERRORS
+The
+\fIpthread_attr_setdetachstate\fR()
+function shall fail if:
+.TP
+.BR EINVAL
+The value of
+.IR detachstate
+was not valid
+.P
+These functions shall not return an error code of
+.BR [EINTR] .
+.LP
+.IR "The following sections are informative."
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.SS "Retrieving the detachstate Attribute"
+.P
+This example shows how to obtain the
+.IR detachstate
+attribute of a thread attribute object.

+pthread_attr_t thread_attr;

+.SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
+None.
+.SH RATIONALE
+If an implementation detects that the value specified by the
+.IR attr
+argument to
+\fIpthread_attr_getdetachstate\fR()
+or
+\fIpthread_attr_setdetachstate\fR()
+does not refer to an initialized thread attributes object, it is
+recommended that the function should fail and report an
+.BR [EINVAL]
+error.

+None.
