NAME

       exit_group - exit all threads in a process

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/syscall.h>       /* Definition of SYS_* constants */
       #include <unistd.h>

       noreturn void syscall(SYS_exit_group, int status);

       Note: glibc provides no wrapper for exit_group(), necessitating the use of syscall(2).

DESCRIPTION

       This  system call is equivalent to _exit(2) except that it terminates not only the calling
       thread, but all threads in the calling process's thread group.

RETURN VALUE

       This system call does not return.

VERSIONS

       This call is present since Linux 2.5.35.

CONFORMING TO

       This call is Linux-specific.

NOTES

       Since glibc 2.3, this is the system call invoked when the  _exit(2)  wrapper  function  is
       called.

SEE ALSO

       exit(2)
