At the time, the POSIX threads specification had not been completed. When the POSIX draft was ready, an implementation of the POSIX threads library was developed and began shipping in Solaris 2.6.

I'm designing a library using POSIX that needs to sit on a few FDs and wake up when data is available. Just like select() and poll() have done for me for years. But now I gotta be Posix-compliant ...

Here’s a simple compile of a thread’s program using POSIX threads, followed by a run of the . ldd(1) command on the resulting binary (ldd(1) lists the dependencies of dynamically-linked objects).

It's with a crashed POSIX (and presumably OS/2; the Win32 SS causes a BSOD if it crashes, so is a bit different) subsystem.<P>I wonder, you might be able to create a similar effect by "kill -f"ing ...

With these, you should be able to do almost anything you would do with POSIX threads. First, let's look at sections. In the OpenMP specification, sections are defined as sequential blocks of code that ...

POSIX defines interfaces for thread management, file I/O, sockets, and timers, making it easier for developers to write software that works across different Unix-based systems. (Dare I add that it was ...

Thread creation in POSIX. A quick internet search shows a seemingly endless number of real-time operating systems (RTOSes), most based on proprietary application programming interfaces (APIs).

The latest ISO/IEC Posix 1003.1 standard no longer refers to the old A, B, and C sections, but they are useful to refer to in this discussion. Section A is the basic Unix API, B is real-time ...
