pthread_create.3: Fix bug in EXAMPLE program
The bug is in this part of the code: /* Allocate memory for pthread_create() arguments */ tinfo = calloc(num_threads, num_threads); if (tinfo == NULL) errExit("calloc"); The calloc() line should read like this instead: tinfo = calloc(num_threads, sizeof(struct thread_info)); Signed-off-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com>
