Hi, FreeBSD provides the pthread package (available through the use of the option -pthread to gcc). Does this package use user-level threads or does it use kernel threads ? I believe the kernel supports multiple threads in the same address space using the rfork() system call. - Mohit To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
