[oclug] Posix Scheduler Locking

[Dan Cardamore]

Hi,

I'm porting an application, and the new version will be using POSIX
threads.  A process will have its own scheduler and threads and I need
to give threads the ability to stop the scheduler so that they can
execute atomically.

Is this possible with pthreads?  Does anyone know the function call to
disable the scheduler?

Thanks,

Dan
