osYieldThread

Format
#include <ultra64.h>
void osYieldThread(void);


What This Function Does
It yields the CPU and invokes the thread dispatcher. Then it inserts the calling thread back into the run queue following all other threads of the same priority. Then the dispatcher is invoked to run the (possibly different) thread at the front of the run queue. If the calling thread is the only thread at its priority level, then this call effectively does nothing.
