线程竞态工具的使用说明

操作系统环境： ubuntu12.04

step 1 安装Clang，必须是3.3以上的版本

sudo apt-get install clang-3.3

step 2 编写测试程序

#include   

int global;  
    
void * tfun1(void *x)   
{  
    global = 1;  
    return x;  
}  

int main()  
{
    pthread_t t;  
    pthread_create(&t, NULL, tfun1, NULL);  
    global = 2;  
    pthread_join(t, NULL);  
    return global;  
}

step 3 编译程序

clang -fsanitize=thread -g -O1 test.c

step 4 察看运行结果

./a.out

==================

可以看出由于main和tfun1函数都修改global全局变量，两个函数的代码都没有对global全局变量的使用做保护，所以thread-sanitizer给出了警告提示

step 5 对共享变量加入保护代码

#include 

int global;
pthread_mutex_t mutex;
    
void * tfun1(void *x) 
{
    pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex);
    global = 1;
    pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);
    return x;
}

int main()
{
    pthread_mutex_init(&mutex, NULL);  
    pthread_t t;  
    pthread_create(&t, NULL, tfun1, NULL);  

    pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex);
    global = 2;
    pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);
 
    pthread_join(t, NULL);
    return global;
}

再编译运行此代码则不会出现警告信息
