minix/lib/libc/sys/_lwp_unpark_all.2
Ben Gras 2fe8fb192f Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.

Changes in this commit:

	. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
	. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
	  can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
	. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
	. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
	. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
	  commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
	. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
	. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
	. test compile fix
	. harmonize includes
	. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
	  kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
	  is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
	  less on the state of the machine making them now.
	. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
	. reduce mtree

.Sh NAME
.Nm _lwp_unpark_all
.Nd resume execution of a waiting LWP
.Sh LIBRARY
.Lb libc
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In lwp.h
.Ft ssize_t
.Fn _lwp_unpark_all "lwpid_t *targets" "size_t ntargets" "const void *hint"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Fn _lwp_unpark_all
resumes execution of one or more light-weight processes listed in
the array pointed to by
.Fa targets .
.Pp
The target LWPs are assumed to be waiting in the kernel as a result of
calls to
.Fn _lwp_park .
If any of the target LWPs are not currently waiting, those LWPs will return
immediately upon the next call to
.Fn _lwp_park .
.Pp
The value pointed to by
.Fa ntargets
specifies the size of the array pointed to by
.Fa targets .
If the
.Fa targets
argument is given as
.Dv NULL ,
the maximum size of the array (expressed
as the number of entries) is returned.
.Pp
See
.Xr _lwp_park 2
for a description of the
.Fa hint
argument.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
If the maximum size of the
.Fa targets
array is not being queried, a return of 0 indicates that the call succeeded.
A \-1 return value indicates an error occurred and
.Va errno
is set to indicate the reason.
.Sh ERRORS
.Bl -tag -width [EINVAL]
.It Bq Er EFAULT
The value specified for
.Fa targets
is invalid.
.It Bq Er EINVAL
The value specified for
.Fa ntargets
is out of range.
.It Bq Er ENOMEM
Insufficient resources are available to complete the operation.
