.Sh NAME
.Nm pthread_jit_write_protect_supported_np ,
.Nm pthread_jit_write_protect_np
.Nd thread JIT region write protection settings
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.In pthread.h
.Ft int
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_supported_np "void"
.Ft void
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_np "int enabled"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_supported_np
function returns whether the
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_np
API is supported on this platform. If
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_np
API is supported on this platform,
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_np
must be called to toggle per-thread write protection on the MAP_JIT region before the thread writes to or executes from the MAP_JIT region.
.Pp
The
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_np
function sets whether MAP_JIT region write protection is enabled for this thread.
.Pp
On platforms where
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_supported_np
is true, MAP_JIT regions are never writeable and executable simultaneously.
When write protection is enabled for the thread, writes by the thread to the MAP_JIT region are denied and the MAP_JIT region is executable.
When write protection is disabled for the thread, writes by the thread to the MAP_JIT region are allowed and the MAP_JIT region is not executable.
Pass a non-zero value for the
.Fa enabled
parameter to enable thread JIT region write protection and allow execution. Pass a zero value for the
.Fa enabled
parameter to disable thread JIT write protection and deny execution.
.Pp
On platforms where
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_supported_np
is not supported, MAP_JIT regions are both simultaenously writeable and executable. Calls to
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_np
are no-ops on unsupported platforms.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
If supported, the
.Fn pthread_jit_write_protect_supported_np
function will return one. Otherwise the function will return zero.
