Sysbench tests the load by running multiple threads at the same time. The number of threads is specified by the user. Depending on the testing mode, Sysbench can test the total number of requests or the amount of time required to run the complete benchmark, or both.
Threads created by the library (via pthread_create) correspond one-to-one with schedulable entities in the kernel (processes, in the Linux case). [4]: 226 This is the simplest of the three threading models (1:1, N:1, and M:N). [4]: 215–216 New threads are created with the clone() system call called through the
oneAPI Threading Building Blocks (oneTBB; formerly Threading Building Blocks or TBB) is a C++ template library developed by Intel for parallel programming on multi-core processors. Using TBB, a computation is broken down into tasks that can run in parallel. The library manages and schedules threads to execute these tasks.
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
Multiple threads can interfere with each other when sharing hardware resources such as caches or translation lookaside buffers (TLBs). As a result, execution times of a single thread are not improved and can be degraded, even when only one thread is executing, due to lower frequencies or additional pipeline stages that are necessary to accommodate thread-switching hardware.
NXLog is a multi-threaded application, the main thread is responsible for monitoring files and sockets. These are added to the core by the different input and output modules. There is a dedicated thread handling internal events. It sleeps until the next event is to be processed then wakes up and dispatches the event to a worker thread.
This switches the threading mode between one thread, two threads or four threads depending on the number of process threads being scheduled at the time. This optimizes the use of the core for minimum response time or maximum throughput. IBM POWER8 has 8 intelligent simultaneous threads per core (SMT8).
A task (i.e., a synonym for thread) is the minimal entity that Linux can schedule. However, it can also manage groups of threads, whole multi-threaded processes, and even all the processes of a given user. This design leads to the concept of schedulable entities, where tasks are grouped and managed by the scheduler as a whole.
