NAME

_lwp_exit − terminate the calling LWP

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/lwp.h>

void _lwp_exit(void);

DESCRIPTION

_lwp_exit() causes the calling LWP to terminate.  If it is the last LWP in the process, then the process exits with a status of zero (see exit(2). 

If the LWP was created undetached, it is transformed into a "zombie LWP" that retains at least the LWP’s ID until it is waited for (see _lwp_wait(2)).  Otherwise, its ID and system resources may be reclaimed immediately. 

SEE ALSO

_lwp_create(2), _lwp_wait(2), exit(2)
