c - can't understand pthread_join() - c

Question

I can not figure out where I'm wrong, after running the code arrived in the for where it runs the pthread_join() , many pthread_join() return with value 3 instead of 0. Furthermore, printing the value of i is not always consistent and this causes segmentation fault and printing several times of the same position.
Code modified as required in the comments
all the includes are for other parts of the program. Testing only this piece of code creates segmentation fault at error 3 on pthread_join()

The problem is that you are passing the address of an int to a function that expects the address of a void *. On a 64-bit system, there's a good chance that an int is only 32-bits whereas a void * is 64-bits. So pthread_join ends up writing 64-bits into a location that is only big enough for 32-bits. The result is that you overwrite memory that shouldn't being changed, and all sorts of undefined behavior follows.
Here's a way to write the code so that the second argument to pthread_join is actually a pointer to a void *
for (i = 0; i < THREADSINPOOL; i++)
{
void *value;
if (pthread_join(array[i], &value) == 0)
printf("thread %d returned %" PRIiPTR "\n", i, (intptr_t)value);
else
printf("thread %d failed\n", i);
}
