37.Ft void
38.Fn pthread_suspend_all_np void
39.Sh DESCRIPTION
40The
41.Fn pthread_suspend_all_np
42function causes all active threads to be suspended.
43The only exception is the current thread,
44the thread that called the
45.Fn pthread_suspend_all_np
46function.
47.Pp
48It is not safe for the caller of the
49.Fn pthread_suspend_all_np
50function to use any non-async signal safe functions, besides
51.Xr pthread_resume_all_np 3 ,
52until threads are resumed, unless measures are taken to ensure
53that all threads are suspended at safe points.
