libpthread
- POSIX threads library
Synopsis
cc -mt [ flag... ] file... -lpthread [ -lrt library... ]
Description
Historically, functions in this library provided POSIX threading support. See standards(5). This functionality
now resides in libc(3LIB).
This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility for both runtime and
compilation environments. The shared object is implemented as a filter on libc.so.1.
New application development needs to specify -lpthread only to obtain POSIX semantics
for fork(2) that assumes the behavior of fork1(2) rather than the default behavior
that forks all threads.
INTERFACES
The shared object libpthread.so.1 provides the public interfaces defined below. See Intro(3)
for additional information on shared object interfaces.
