The setting is returned via 43.Fa pshared , 44and may be one of two values: 45.Bl -hang -offset flag -width 123456789012345678901234 46.It Ar PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED 47Any thread of any process that has access to the memory where the 48read/write lock resides can manipulate the lock. 49.It Ar PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE 50Only threads created within the same process as the thread that 51initialized the read/write lock can manipulate the lock. This is 52the default value. 53.El 54.Sh RETURN VALUES 55If successful, the 56.Fn pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared 57function will return zero. Otherwise an error number will be returned 58to indicate the error. 59.Sh SEE ALSO 60.Xr pthread_rwlock_init 3 , 61.Xr pthread_rwlockattr_init 3 , 62.Xr pthread_rwlockattr_setpshared 3 63.Sh STANDARDS 64The 65.Fn pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared 66function is expected to conform to 67.St -susv2 . 68.Sh ERRORS 69.Fn pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared 70may fail if: 71.Bl -tag -width Er 72.It Bq Er EINVAL 73The value specified by 74.Fa attr 75is invalid. 76.El 77.Sh HISTORY 78The 79.Fn pthread_rwlockattr_getpshared 80function first appeared in 81.Fx 3.0 82and 83.Ox 2.5 . 84
