+PR_ClearInterrupt
+=================
+
+Clears the interrupt request for the calling thread.
+
+
+Syntax
+------
+
+.. code::
+
+   #include <prthread.h>
+
+   void PR_ClearInterrupt(void);
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Interrupting is a cooperative process, so it's possible that the thread
+passed to :ref:`PR_Interrupt` may never respond to the interrupt request.
+For example, the target thread may reach the agreed-on control point
+without providing an opportunity for the runtime to notify the thread of
+the interrupt request. In this case, the request for interrupt is still
+pending with the thread and must be explicitly canceled. Therefore it is
+sometimes necessary to call :ref:`PR_ClearInterrupt` to clear a previous
+interrupt request.
+
+If no interrupt request is pending, :ref:`PR_ClearInterrupt` is a no-op.
