KosThreadCreate()

This function is declared in the kos/thread.h file.

Retcode KosThreadCreate(Tid *tid,

rtl_uint32_t priority,

rtl_uint32_t stackSize,

ThreadRoutine routine,

void *context,

int suspended);

This function creates a new thread.

Input parameters:

• priority must be within the interval from 0 to 31; the following priority constants are available: ThreadPriorityLowest (0), ThreadPriorityNormal (15) and ThreadPriorityHighest (31).
• stackSize is the size of the stack.
• routine is the function that will be executed in the thread.
• context is the argument that will be passed to the routine function.
• suspended lets you create a thread in the suspended state (1 means create suspended, 0 means create not suspended).

Output parameters:

• tid is the ID of the created thread.

Example

int main(int argc, char **argv)

{

Tid tidB;

Tid tidC;

Retcode rcB;

Retcode rcC;

static ThreadContext threadContext[] = {

{.ddi = "B", .deviceName = "/pci/bus0/dev2/fun0/DDI_B"},

{.ddi = "C", .deviceName = "/pci/bus0/dev2/fun0/DDI_C"},

};

rcB = KosThreadCreate(&tidB, ThreadPriorityNormal,

ThreadStackSizeDefault,

FbHotplugThread,

&threadContext[0], 0);

if (rcB != rcOk)

ERR("Failed to start thread %s", threadContext[0].ddi);

rcC = KosThreadCreate(&tidC, ThreadPriorityNormal,

ThreadStackSizeDefault,

FbHotplugThread,

&threadContext[1], 0);

if (rcC != rcOk)

ERR("Failed to start thread %s", threadContext[1].ddi);
