47 * Determine whether barriers created with 'attr' can be
48 * shared between processes.
52 * pointer to an instance of pthread_barrierattr_t
55 * will be set to one of:
57 * PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
58 * May be shared if in shared memory
60 * PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE
65 * Mutexes creatd with 'attr' can be shared between
66 * processes if pthread_barrier_t variable is allocated
67 * in memory shared by these processes.
69 * 1) pshared barriers MUST be allocated in shared
71 * 2) The following macro is defined if shared barriers
