no cancellation points will respond to a cancellation request.
|
|
|
|
If cancelability is disabled (using
|
|
.BR pthread_setcancelstate (3)),
|
|
or no cancellation request is pending,
|
|
then a call to
|
|
.BR pthread_testcancel ()
|
|
has no effect.
|
|

|
|

|
|
to this function, then the function does not return.

|
.SH ERRORS
