58 * NAME
59 *	Thread Pool
60 *
61 * DESCRIPTION
62 *	The Thread Pool manages a user specified number of threads.
63 *
64 *	Each thread in the thread pool waits for a user initiated signal before
65 *	invoking a user specified callback function. All threads in the thread
66 *	pool invoke the same callback function.
67 *
68 *	The thread pool functions operate on a cl_thread_pool_t structure which
69 *	should be treated as opaque, and should be manipulated only through the
70 *	provided functions.
71 *
72 * SEE ALSO
73 *	Structures:
74 *		cl_thread_pool_t
