Hello!
Is it safe to use enter_blocking_section() and leave_blocking_section()
calls from my C function like this:
void testSleep( value timev )
{
CAMLparam1(timev);
int time = Int_val(timev);
enter_blocking_section();
sleep(time);
leave_blocking_section();
CAMLreturn0;
}
If yes, why are they not included in installed headers?
If not, which method to use multi-threaded caml app with multi-threaded
C extensions?
In attach I included full sample.

Yes, that's the intended usage.

Oversight. The development version now installs <caml/signals.h>
that declares {enter,leave}_blocking_section.
