-.SH NAME
-pthread_cleanup_push, pthread_cleanup_pop \- push and pop
-thread cancelation clean-up handlers
-.SH LIBRARY
-POSIX threads library
-.RI ( libpthread ", " \-lpthread )
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <pthread.h>
-.PP
-.BI "void pthread_cleanup_push(void (*" routine ")(void *), void *" arg );
-.BI "void pthread_cleanup_pop(int " execute );
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-These functions manipulate the calling thread's stack of
-thread-cancelation clean-up handlers.
-A clean-up handler is a function that is automatically executed
-when a thread is canceled (or in various other circumstances
-described below);
-it might, for example, unlock a mutex so that
-it becomes available to other threads in the process.
-.PP
-The
-.BR pthread_cleanup_push ()
-function pushes
-.I routine
-onto the top of the stack of clean-up handlers.
-When
-.I routine
-is later invoked, it will be given
-.I arg
-as its argument.
-.PP
-The
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ()
-function removes the routine at the top of the stack of clean-up handlers,
-and optionally executes it if
-.I execute
-is nonzero.
-.PP
-A cancelation clean-up handler is popped from the stack
-and executed in the following circumstances:
-.IP \[bu] 3
-When a thread is canceled,
-all of the stacked clean-up handlers are popped and executed in
-the reverse of the order in which they were pushed onto the stack.
-.IP \[bu]
-When a thread terminates by calling
-.BR pthread_exit (3),
-all clean-up handlers are executed as described in the preceding point.
-(Clean-up handlers are
-.I not
-called if the thread terminates by
-performing a
-.I return
-from the thread start function.)
-.IP \[bu]
-When a thread calls
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ()
-with a nonzero
-.I execute
-argument, the top-most clean-up handler is popped and executed.
-.PP
-POSIX.1 permits
-.BR pthread_cleanup_push ()
-and
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ()
-to be implemented as macros that expand to text
-containing \[aq]\fB{\fP\[aq] and \[aq]\fB}\fP\[aq], respectively.
-For this reason, the caller must ensure that calls to these
-functions are paired within the same function,
-and at the same lexical nesting level.
-(In other words, a clean-up handler is established only
-during the execution of a specified section of code.)
-.PP
-Calling
-.BR longjmp (3)
-.RB ( siglongjmp (3))
-produces undefined results if any call has been made to
-.BR pthread_cleanup_push ()
-or
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ()
-without the matching call of the pair since the jump buffer
-was filled by
-.BR setjmp (3)
-.RB ( sigsetjmp (3)).
-Likewise, calling
-.BR longjmp (3)
-.RB ( siglongjmp (3))
-from inside a clean-up handler produces undefined results
-unless the jump buffer was also filled by
-.BR setjmp (3)
-.RB ( sigsetjmp (3))
-inside the handler.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-These functions do not return a value.
-.SH ERRORS
-There are no errors.

-.SH VERSIONS
-On glibc, the
-.BR pthread_cleanup_push ()
-and
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ()
-functions
-.I are
-implemented as macros that expand to text
-containing \[aq]\fB{\fP\[aq] and \[aq]\fB}\fP\[aq], respectively.
-This means that variables declared within the scope of
-paired calls to these functions will be visible within only that scope.
-.PP
-POSIX.1
-.\" The text was actually added in the 2004 TC2
-says that the effect of using
-.IR return ,
-.IR break ,
-.IR continue ,
-or
-.I goto
-to prematurely leave a block bracketed
-.BR pthread_cleanup_push ()
-and
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ()
-is undefined.
-Portable applications should avoid doing this.
-.SH STANDARDS
-POSIX.1-2008.
-.SH HISTORY
-POSIX.1-2001.
-glibc 2.0.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-The program below provides a simple example of the use of the functions
-described in this page.
-The program creates a thread that executes a loop bracketed by
-.BR pthread_cleanup_push ()
-and
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ().
-This loop increments a global variable,
-.IR cnt ,
-once each second.
-Depending on what command-line arguments are supplied,
-the main thread sends the other thread a cancelation request,
-or sets a global variable that causes the other thread
-to exit its loop and terminate normally (by doing a
-.IR return ).
-.PP
-In the following shell session,
-the main thread sends a cancelation request to the other thread:
-.PP
-.in +4n
-.EX
-$ \fB./a.out\fP
-New thread started
-cnt = 0
-cnt = 1
-Canceling thread
-Called clean\-up handler
-Thread was canceled; cnt = 0
-.EE
-.in
-.PP
-From the above, we see that the thread was canceled,
-and that the cancelation clean-up handler was called
-and it reset the value of the global variable
-.I cnt
-to 0.
-.PP
-In the next run, the main program sets a
-global variable that causes other thread to terminate normally:
-.PP
-.in +4n
-.EX
-$ \fB./a.out x\fP
-New thread started
-cnt = 0
-cnt = 1
-Thread terminated normally; cnt = 2
-.EE
-.in
-.PP
-From the above, we see that the clean-up handler was not executed (because
-.I cleanup_pop_arg
-was 0), and therefore the value of
-.I cnt
-was not reset.
-.PP
-In the next run, the main program sets a global variable that
-causes the other thread to terminate normally,
-and supplies a nonzero value for
-.IR cleanup_pop_arg :
-.PP
-.in +4n
-.EX
-$ \fB./a.out x 1\fP
-New thread started
-cnt = 0
-cnt = 1
-Called clean\-up handler
-Thread terminated normally; cnt = 0
-.EE
-.in
-.PP
-In the above, we see that although the thread was not canceled,
-the clean-up handler was executed, because the argument given to
-.BR pthread_cleanup_pop ()
-was nonzero.
