131 * Dispatch queues created with the DISPATCH_QUEUE_CONCURRENT attribute may

167 * @function dispatch_pthread_root_queue_create
170 * Creates a new concurrent dispatch root queue with a pthread-based pool of
171 * worker threads owned by the application.
174 * Dispatch pthread root queues are similar to the global concurrent dispatch
175 * queues in that they invoke blocks concurrently, however the blocks are not
176 * executed on ordinary worker threads but use a dedicated pool of pthreads not
177 * shared with the global queues or any other pthread root queues.
179 * NOTE: this is a special-purpose facility that should only be used in very
180 * limited circumstances, in almost all cases the global concurrent queues
181 * should be preferred. While this facility allows for more flexibility in
182 * configuring worker threads for special needs it comes at the cost of
183 * increased overall memory usage due to reduced thread sharing and higher
184 * latency in worker thread bringup.
186 * Dispatch pthread root queues do not support suspension, application context
187 * and change of width or of target queue. They can however be used as the
188 * target queue for serial or concurrent queues obtained via
189 * dispatch_queue_create() or dispatch_queue_create_with_target(), which
190 * enables the blocks submitted to those queues to be processed on the root
191 * queue's pthread pool.
193 * When a dispatch pthread root queue is no longer needed, it should be
194 * released with dispatch_release(). Existing worker pthreads and pending blocks
195 * submitted to the root queue will hold a reference to the queue so it will not
196 * be deallocated until all blocks have finished and worker threads exited.
199 * A string label to attach to the queue.
200 * This parameter is optional and may be NULL.
203 * Pass flags value returned by dispatch_pthread_root_queue_flags_pool_size()
207 * Attributes passed to pthread_create(3) when creating worker pthreads. This
208 * parameter is copied and can be destroyed after this call returns.
209 * This parameter is optional and may be NULL.
212 * Configuration block called on newly created worker pthreads before any blocks
213 * for the root queue are executed. The block may configure the current thread
215 * This parameter is optional and may be NULL.
