+.IP \[bu] +the stack size, +which the implementation may align to a suitable boundary. +.IP \[bu] +and the guard size, +which the implementation may round upward to a multiple of the page size, +or ignore (i.e., treat as 0), +if the application is allocating its own stack. +.PP +Furthermore, if the stack address attribute was not set +in the thread attributes object used to create the thread, +then the returned thread attributes object will report the actual +stack address that the implementation selected for the thread. +.PP +When the thread attributes object returned by +.BR pthread_getattr_np () +is no longer required, it should be destroyed using +.BR pthread_attr_destroy (3). +.SH RETURN VALUE +On success, this function returns 0;
