-.SH NAME
-pthread_self \- obtain ID of the calling thread
-.SH LIBRARY
-POSIX threads library
-.RI ( libpthread ", " \-lpthread )
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <pthread.h>
-.P
-.B pthread_t pthread_self(void);
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.BR pthread_self ()
-function returns the ID of the calling thread.
-This is the same value that is returned in
-.I *thread
-in the
-.BR pthread_create (3)
-call that created this thread.
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-This function always succeeds, returning the calling thread's ID.
-.SH ERRORS
-This function always succeeds.
-.SH ATTRIBUTES
-For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
-.BR attributes (7).

-.SH STANDARDS
-POSIX.1-2008.
-.SH HISTORY
-POSIX.1-2001.
-.SH NOTES
-POSIX.1 allows an implementation wide freedom in choosing
-the type used to represent a thread ID;
-for example, representation using either an arithmetic type or
-a structure is permitted.
-Therefore, variables of type
-.I pthread_t
-can't portably be compared using the C equality operator (\fB==\fP);
-use
-.BR pthread_equal (3)
-instead.
-.P
-Thread identifiers should be considered opaque:
-any attempt to use a thread ID other than in pthreads calls
-is nonportable and can lead to unspecified results.
-.P
-Thread IDs are guaranteed to be unique only within a process.
-A thread ID may be reused after a terminated thread has been joined,
-or a detached thread has terminated.
-.P
-The thread ID returned by
-.BR pthread_self ()
-is not the same thing as the kernel thread ID returned by a call to
-.BR gettid (2).
