简介
POSIX thread 简称为pthread,Posix线程是一个POSIX标准线程.该标准定义内部API创建和操纵线程.
作用
线程库实行了POSIX线程标准通常称为pthreads.pthreads是最常用的POSIX系统如Linux和Unix,而微软Windowsimplementations同时存在.举例来说,pthreads-w32可支持MIDP的pthread
Pthreads定义了一套 C程序语言类型、函数与常量,它以 pthread.h 头文件和一个线程库实现。
数据类型
pthread_t:线程句柄
pthread_attr_t:线程属性
线程操纵函数(简介起见,省略参数)
pthread_create():创建一个线程
pthread_exit():终止当前线程
pthread_cancel():中断另外一个线程的运行
pthread_join():阻塞当前的线程,直到另外一个线程运行结束
pthread_attr_init():初始化线程的属性
pthread_attr_setdetachstate():设置脱离状态的属性(决定这个线程在终止时是否可以被结合)
pthread_attr_getdetachstate():获取脱离状态的属性
pthread_attr_destroy():删除线程的属性
pthread_kill():向线程发送一个信号
同步函数
用于 mutex 和条件变量
pthread_mutex_init() 初始化互斥锁
pthread_mutex_destroy() 删除互斥锁
pthread_mutex_lock():占有互斥锁(阻塞操作)
pthread_mutex_trylock():试图占有互斥锁(不阻塞操作)。当互斥锁空闲时将占有该锁;否则立即返回
pthread_mutex_unlock(): 释放互斥锁
pthread_cond_init():初始化条件变量
pthread_cond_destroy():销毁条件变量
pthread_cond_wait(): 等待条件变量的特殊条件发生
pthread_cond_signal(): 唤醒第一个调用pthread_cond_wait()而进入睡眠的线程
Thread-local storage(或者以Pthreads术语,称作 线程特有数据):
pthread_key_create(): 分配用于标识进程中线程特定数据的键
pthread_setspecific(): 为指定线程特定数据键设置线程特定绑定
pthread_getspecific(): 获取调用线程的键绑定,并将该绑定存储在 value 指向的位置中
pthread_key_delete(): 销毁现有线程特定数据键
与一起工作的工具函数
pthread_equal(): 对两个线程的线程标识号进行比较
pthread_detach(): 分离线程
pthread_self(): 查询线程自身线程标识号

多线程创建
参考代码:
- #include<stdio.h>
- #include<pthread.h>
- #include<string.h>
- #include<sys/types.h>
- #include<unistd.h>
- pthread_t main_tid;
- void print_ids(const char *str)
- {
- pid_t pid;
- pthread_t tid;
- pid = getpid();
- tid = pthread_self();
- printf("%s pid: %u tid: %u (0x%x)/n",
- str,
- (unsigned int)pid,
- (unsigned int)tid,
- (unsigned int)tid);
- }
- void *func(void *arg)
- {
- print_ids("new thread:");
- return ((void *)0);
- }
- int main()
- {
- int err;
- err = pthread_create(&main_tid, NULL, func, NULL);
- if(err != 0){
- printf("create thread error: %s/n",strerror(err));
- return 1;
- }
- printf("main thread: pid: %u tid: %u (0x%x)/n",
- (unsigned int)getpid(),
- (unsigned int)pthread_self(),
- (unsigned int)pthread_self());
- print_ids("main thread:");
- sleep(1);
- return 0;
- }
运行结果:
[[email protected] pthread]$ gcc -Wall -o pthread_create pthread_create.c -lpthread
[[email protected] pthread]$ ./pthread_create
main thread: pid: 12531 tid: 2505487232 (0x9556b380)

多线程的创建特殊数据键
参考代码:
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <pthread.h>
- #include <unistd.h>
-
- pthread_key_t key;
-
- void echomsg(void *arg)
- {
- printf("destruct executed in thread = %u, arg = %p/n",
- (unsigned int)pthread_self(),
- arg);
- }
-
- void *child_1(void *arg)
- {
- pthread_t tid;
-
- tid = pthread_self();
- printf("%s: thread %u enter/n", (char *)arg, (unsigned int)tid);
-
- pthread_setspecific(key, (void *)tid);
- printf("%s: thread %u returns %p/n",
- (char *)arg,
- (unsigned int)tid,
- pthread_getspecific(key));
- sleep(1);
- return NULL;
- }
-
- void *child_2(void *arg)
- {
- pthread_t tid;
-
- tid = pthread_self();
- printf("%s: thread %u enter/n", (char *)arg, (unsigned int)tid);
-
- pthread_setspecific(key, (void *)tid);
- printf("%s: thread %u returns %p/n",
- (char *)arg,
- (unsigned int)tid,
- pthread_getspecific(key));
- sleep(1);
- return NULL;
- }
-
-
- int main(void)
- {
- pthread_t tid1, tid2;
-
- printf("hello main/n");
-
- pthread_key_create(&key, echomsg);
-
- pthread_create(&tid1, NULL, child_1, (void *)"child_1");
- pthread_create(&tid2, NULL, child_2, (void *)"child_2");
-
- sleep(3);
- pthread_key_delete(key);
- printf("bye main/n");
-
- pthread_exit(0);
- return 0;
- }
运行结果:
[[email protected] pthread]$ gcc -Wall -o pthread_setspecific pthread_setspecific.c -lpthread
[[email protected] pthread]$ ./pthread_setspecific
hello main
child_1: thread 1084229984 enter
child_1: thread 1084229984 returns 0x40a00960
child_2: thread 1094719840 enter
child_2: thread 1094719840 returns 0x41401960
destruct executed in thread = 1084229984, arg = 0x40a00960
destruct executed in thread = 1094719840, arg = 0x41401960
bye main
附加参考——函数原型:
Posix定义了两个API分别用来创建和注销TSD:
int pthread_key_create(pthread_key_t *key, void (*destr_function) (void *))
注销一个TSD采用如下API:
int pthread_key_delete(pthread_key_t key)
int pthread_setspecific(pthread_key_t key, const void *pointer)
void * pthread_getspecific(pthread_key_t key)
