What does a "psttttttttt!" sound mean for people of Brazil?


What does a "psttttttttt!" sound mean for people of Brazil?
I have a friend who's an exchange student from Brazil and he sometimes makes a "psttttttt!" sound at me when he sees me in school or outside of school. I don't think it's meant to be rude, becasue he smiles or laughs after he does it. Is this some type of cultural thing or something? Just curious.

Just as children sometimes do, it means he wants to talk to you.
