thread

A thread may be created as a joinable thread (the default) or as a detached thread. A joinable thread, like a process, is not automatically cleaned up by GNU/Linux when it terminates. Instead, the thread's exit state hangs around in the system (kind of like a zombie process) until another thread calls pthread_join to obtain its return value. Only then are its resources released. A detached thread, in contrast, is cleaned up automatically when it terminates. Because a detached thread is immediately cleaned up, another thread may not synchronize on its completion by using pthread_join or obtain its return value.
When create thread with pthread_create, the attr
argument can also be NULL, in which case default attributes are
used: the created thread is joinable (not detached) and has an ordinary
(not realtime) scheduling policy.
