     484Deletion of threads is not implemented.

     487
     488
     489Implement the missing feature.  The key problems are lock order reversal issues
     490(Giant vs. allocator lock).  Self deletion imposes the problem that some thread
     491resources like the thread stack and the thread object must be freed by a second
     492party.  On single processor configurations this was done with a hack that
     493doesn't work on SMP.  See also [http://www.rtems.org/pipermail/rtems-devel/2013-July/003509.html Thread Life-Cycle Changes.]
