.TH curl_multi_wakeup 3 "17 Nov 2019" "libcurl 7.68.0" "libcurl Manual"
.SH NAME
curl_multi_wakeup - wakes up a sleeping curl_multi_poll call
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>

CURLMcode curl_multi_wakeup(CURLM *multi_handle);
.ad
.SH DESCRIPTION
This function can be called from any thread and it wakes up a
sleeping \fIcurl_multi_poll(3)\fP call that is currently (or will be)
waiting for activity or a timeout.

If the function is called when there is no \fIcurl_multi_poll(3)\fP call,
it will cause the next call to return immediately.

Calling this function only guarantees to wake up the current (or the next
if there is no current) \fIcurl_multi_poll(3)\fP call, which means it is
possible that multiple calls to this function will wake up the same waiting
operation.

This function has no effect on \fIcurl_multi_wait(3)\fP calls.
.SH RETURN VALUE
CURLMcode type, general libcurl multi interface error code.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
.BR curl_multi_poll "(3), " curl_multi_wait "(3)"
