See kill() for further information as this is just a simple * wrapper around the kill() function. * * Parameters: * thread - The id of the thread to receive the signal. Only positive, * non-zero values of 'thread' are supported. * signo - The signal number to send. If 'signo' is zero, no signal is * sent, but all error checking is performed. * * Return Value: * On success the signal was send and zero is returned. On error one * of the following error numbers is returned. * * EINVAL An invalid signal was specified. * EPERM The thread does not have permission to send the * signal to the target thread. * ESRCH No thread could be found corresponding to that * specified by the given thread ID * ENOSYS Do not support sending signals to process groups. * * Assumptions: * ************************************************************************/ int pthread_kill(pthread_t thread, int signo) { int ret; set_errno(EINVAL); ret = kill((pid_t)thread, signo); if (ret != OK) { ret = get_errno(); } return ret; }
