+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Calling
+.BR pthread_testcancel ()
+creates a cancelation point within the calling thread,
+so that a thread that is otherwise executing code that contains
+no cancelation points will respond to a cancelation request.
+.PP
+If cancelability is disabled (using
+.BR pthread_setcancelstate (3)),
+or no cancelation request is pending,
+then a call to
+.BR pthread_testcancel ()
+has no effect.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+This function does not return a value.
+If the calling thread is canceled as a consequence of a call
+to this function, then the function does not return.
+.SH ERRORS
+This function always succeeds.
