| |
| dnl The general structure of the multithreading modules in gnulib is that we |
| dnl have three set of modules: |
| dnl |
| dnl * POSIX API: |
| dnl pthread, which combines |
| dnl pthread-h |
| dnl pthread-thread |
| dnl pthread-once |
| dnl pthread-mutex |
| dnl pthread-rwlock |
| dnl pthread-cond |
| dnl pthread-tss |
| dnl pthread-spin |
| dnl sched_yield |
| dnl |
| dnl * ISO C API: |
| dnl threads, which combines |
| dnl threads-h |
| dnl thrd |
| dnl mtx |
| dnl cnd |
| dnl tss |
| dnl |
| dnl * Gnulib API, with an implementation that can be chosen at configure |
| dnl time through the option --enable-threads=... |
| dnl thread |
| dnl lock |
| dnl cond |
| dnl tls |
| dnl yield |
| dnl |
| dnl They are independent, except for the fact that |
| dnl - the implementation of the ISO C API may use the POSIX (or some other |
| dnl platform dependent) API, |
| dnl - the implementation of the Gnulib API may use the POSIX or ISO C or |
| dnl some other platform dependent API, depending on the --enable-threads |
| dnl option. |
| dnl |
| dnl This file contains macros for all of these APIs! |

| dnl ------------ |
| dnl Tests for a multithreading library to be used. |
| dnl If the configure.ac contains a definition of the gl_THREADLIB_DEFAULT_NO |
| dnl (it must be placed before the invocation of gl_THREADLIB_EARLY!), then the |
| dnl default is "no", otherwise it is system dependent. In both cases, the user |

| dnl --disable-threads. |
| dnl Defines at most one of the macros USE_ISOC_THREADS, USE_POSIX_THREADS, |
| dnl USE_ISOC_AND_POSIX_THREADS, USE_WINDOWS_THREADS. |
| dnl The choice --enable-threads=isoc+posix is available only on platforms that |
| dnl have both the ISO C and the POSIX threads APIs. It has the effect of using |
| dnl the ISO C API for most things and the POSIX API only for creating and |
| dnl controlling threads (because there is no equivalent to pthread_atfork in |
| dnl the ISO C API). |
| dnl Sets the variables LIBTHREAD and LTLIBTHREAD to the linker options for use |
| dnl in a Makefile (LIBTHREAD for use without libtool, LTLIBTHREAD for use with |

| dnl Sets the variables LIBMULTITHREAD and LTLIBMULTITHREAD similarly, for |
| dnl programs that really need multithread functionality. The difference |
| dnl between LIBTHREAD and LIBMULTITHREAD is that on platforms supporting weak |
| dnl symbols, typically LIBTHREAD is empty whereas LIBMULTITHREAD is not. |
| dnl Adds to CPPFLAGS the flag -D_REENTRANT or -D_THREAD_SAFE if needed for |
| dnl multithread-safe programs. |
| dnl Since support for GNU pth was removed, $LTLIBTHREAD and $LIBTHREAD have the |

| dnl gl_AVOID_WINPTHREAD |
| dnl ------------------- |
| dnl Sets the gl_THREADLIB default so that on mingw, a dependency to the |
| dnl libwinpthread DLL (mingw-w64 winpthreads library) is avoided. |
| dnl The user can still override it at installation time, by using the |
| dnl configure option "--enable-threads=posix". |
| dnl As of 2023, this is now the default. |
