NAME

       pthread_attr_getstacksize,  pthread_attr_setstacksize - get and set the
       stacksize attribute

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pthread.h>

       int pthread_attr_getstacksize(const pthread_attr_t *restrict attr,
              size_t *restrict stacksize);
       int pthread_attr_setstacksize(pthread_attr_t *attr, size_t stacksize);

DESCRIPTION

       The   pthread_attr_getstacksize()    and    pthread_attr_setstacksize()
       functions,   respectively,  shall  get  and  set  the  thread  creation
       stacksize attribute in the attr object.

       The stacksize attribute shall define the minimum stack size (in  bytes)
       allocated for the created threads stack.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon    successful    completion,    pthread_attr_getstacksize()    and
       pthread_attr_setstacksize() shall return a value of  0;  otherwise,  an
       error number shall be returned to indicate the error.

       The pthread_attr_getstacksize() function stores the stacksize attribute
       value in stacksize if successful.

ERRORS

       The pthread_attr_setstacksize() function shall fail if:

       EINVAL The value of  stacksize  is  less  than  {PTHREAD_STACK_MIN}  or
              exceeds a system-imposed limit.

       These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
