+.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. +.P +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. +.P +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. +.P +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. +.P +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.) +.P +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 ATTRIBUTES +For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see +.BR attributes (7). +.TS +allbox;

cnt = 0 +.EE +.in +.P +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. +.P +In the next run, the main program sets a +global variable that causes other thread to terminate normally: +.P +.in +4n +.EX +$ \fB./a.out x\fP +New thread started +cnt = 0 +cnt = 1 +Thread terminated normally; cnt = 2 +.EE +.in +.P +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. +.P +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 : +.P +.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 +.P +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. +.SS Program source +\& +.\" SRC BEGIN (pthread_cleanup_push.c) +.EX +#include <errno.h> +#include <pthread.h> +#include <stdio.h> +#include <stdlib.h> +#include <sys/types.h> +#include <unistd.h> +\& +#define handle_error_en(en, msg) \e + do { errno = en;
