All threads run in the same address space of the server application, but each thread has its own individual program-counter, run-time stack, signal mask and errno variable. &lfs77_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &pth-md5sum; Download size: &pth-size; Estimated disk space required: &pth-buildsize; Estimated build time: &pth-time; User Notes: Installation of Pth Don't add the parameter to the configure command below else you will overwrite the pthread library and interface header installed by the Glibc package in LFS. Install Pth by running the following commands: sed -i 's#$(LOBJS): Makefile#$(LOBJS): pth_p.h Makefile#' Makefile.in && ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --disable-static \ --mandir=/usr/share/man && make To test the results, issue: make test. Now, as the root user: make install && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/pth-&pth-version; && install -v -m644 README PORTING SUPPORT TESTS \ /usr/share/doc/pth-&pth-version; Command Explanations sed -i 's#$(LOBJS) ...: This sed fixes a race condition in the Makefile. It allows you to run make with multiple jobs (e.g., make -j4) . : This option stops it compiling a static version of the library. : This option puts the man pages in /usr/share/man and not /usr/man. Contents Installed Program Installed Library Installed Directory pth-config libpth.so /usr/share/doc/pth-&pth-version; Short Descriptions pth-config is a utility used to configure and build applications based on the pth(3) library. It can be used to query the C compiler and linker flags which are required to correctly compile and link the application against the pth(3) library. pth-config libpth.so contains the API functions used by the GNU Portable Threads Library. libpth.so
