q_job_seek - wait for and execute jobs from a smolq queue
Contents
Description
The q_job_seek() function atomically fetches the next job in q and executes it before looping and
repeating. This is intended to be used as the start_routine for pthread_create(3) or used as the function
f when calling q_pool_create(3).
The function loops indefinitely until the thread is cancelled with pthread_cancel(3) or
q_pool_destroy(3).
Errors
None.
