  2. Intel Inspector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Inspector

    Intel Inspector (previously known as Intel Thread Checker) is a memory and thread checking and debugging tool to increase the reliability, security, and accuracy of C/C++ and Fortran applications. Reliability: Find deadlocks and memory errors that cause lockups & crashes; Security: Find memory and threading vulnerabilities used by hackers

  3. Thread control block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_control_block

    Thread Control Block (TCB) is a data structure in an operating system kernel that contains thread-specific information needed to manage the thread. [1] The TCB is "the manifestation of a thread in an operating system." Each thread has a thread control block. An operating system keeps track of the thread control blocks in kernel memory. [2]

  4. System Contention Scope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Contention_Scope

    In computer science, The System Contention Scope [1] is one of two thread-scheduling schemes used in operating systems.This scheme is used by the kernel to decide which kernel-level thread to schedule onto a CPU, wherein all threads (as opposed to only user-level threads, as in the Process Contention Scope scheme) in the system compete for the CPU. [2]

  5. Load (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_(computing)

    However, other systems, especially systems implementing so-called M:N threading, use different strategies such as counting the process exactly once for the purpose of load (regardless of the number of threads), or counting only threads currently exposed by the user-thread scheduler to the kernel, which may depend on the level of concurrency set ...

  6. Thread (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(computing)

    A process with two threads of execution, running on one processor Program vs. Process vs. Thread Scheduling, Preemption, Context Switching. In computer science, a thread of execution is the smallest sequence of programmed instructions that can be managed independently by a scheduler, which is typically a part of the operating system. [1]

  7. Spurious wakeup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spurious_wakeup

    The Linux p-thread implementation of condition variables guarantees that it will not do that. [3] [4] Because spurious wakeup can happen, when a thread wakes after waiting on a condition variable, it should always check that the condition it sought is still satisfied.

  8. pthreads - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pthreads

    Thread 4: Started. Thread 4: Will be sleeping for 1 seconds. In main: All threads are created. Thread 3: Will be sleeping for 4 seconds. Thread 4: Ended. Thread 0: Ended. In main: Thread 0 has ended. Thread 2: Ended. Thread 3: Ended. Thread 1: Ended. In main: Thread 1 has ended. In main: Thread 2 has ended. In main: Thread 3 has ended. In main ...

  9. Native POSIX Thread Library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_POSIX_Thread_Library

    Red Hat claimed that NPTL fixed this problem in an article on the Java website about Java on Red Hat Linux 9. [2] NPTL has been part of Red Hat Enterprise Linux since version 3, and in the Linux kernel since version 2.6. It is now a fully integrated part of the GNU C Library. [3] There exists a tracing tool for NPTL, called POSIX Thread Trace ...
