.Dd May 11, 2016 .Dt PLWP_ITER 3PROC .Os .Sh NAME .Nm Plwp_iter , .Nm Plwp_iter_all .Nd iterate over threads .Sh SYNOPSIS .Lb libproc n libproc.h .Ft int .Fo Plwp_iter .Fa "struct ps_prochandle *P" .Fa "proc_lwp_f *func", .Fa "void *data" .Fc .Ft int .Fo Plwp_iter_all .Fa "struct ps_prochandle *P" .Fa "proc_lwp_all_f *func" .Fa "void *data" .Fc .Sh DESCRIPTION The .Fn Plwp_iter and .Fn Plwp_iter_all functions iterates over threads in the given process handle .Fa P . The .Fn Plwp_iter function iterates over all active threads, where as the .Fn Plwp_iter_all function iterates over both active threads and zombie threads -- threads waiting to be reaped.

p For each thread, the callback function .Fa func is called with the pointer to the private data argument, .Fa data , and the thread's .Sy lwpstatus_t structure. In the case of the .Fn Plwp_iter_all function, the thread's .Sy lwpsinfo_t is also included.

p The return value of .Fa func controls whether or not iteration continues. If .Fa func returns .Sy 0 , then both functions will continue iteration. However, if .Fa func returns non-zero, then iteration will halt and that value will be used as the return value of the .Fn Plwp_iter and .Fn Plwp_iter_all functions. Because both functions return .Sy -1 on internal failure, it is recommended that the callback function does not return .Sy -1 to indicate an error so that the caller may distinguish between the failure of the callback function and the failure of the .Fn Plwp_iter and .Fn Plwp_iter_all functions. .Sh RETURN VALUES Upon successful completion, the .Fn Plwp_iter and .Fn Plwp_iter_all functions return .Sy 0 . Otherwise, if there was an internal error or there is no thread data, then .Sy -1 is returned. Otherwise, if the callback function .Fa func returns non-zero, then its return value will be returned instead. .Sh INTERFACE STABILITY .Sy Uncommitted .Sh MT-LEVEL See .Sy LOCKING in .Xr libproc 3LIB . .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr libproc 3LIB
