<P>Unbound threads in a process may or may not be required to be
|
|||
|
|
simultaneously active. By default, the threads implementation ensures
|
|||
|
|
that a sufficient number of threads are active so that the process
|
|||
|
|
can continue to make progress. While this conserves system resources,
|
|||
|
|
it may not produce the most effective level of concurrency.
|
|||
|
|
</P>
|
|||
|
|
<P>The <B>pthread_setconcurrency</B> function allows an application
|
|||
|
|
to inform the threads implementation of its desired concurrency
|
|||
|
|
level, <I>new_level</I>. The actual level of concurrency provided by
|
|||
|
|
the implementation as a result of this function call is unspecified.
|
|||
|
|
</P>
|
|||
|
|
<P>If <I>new_level</I> is zero, it causes the implementation to
|
|||
|
|
maintain the concurrency level at its discretion as if
|
|||
|
|
<B>pthread_setconcurrency</B> had never been called.
|
|||
|
|
</P>
|
|||
|
|
<P>The <B>pthread_getconcurrency</B> function shall return the value
|
|||
|
|
set by a previous call to the <B>pthread_setconcurrency</B> function.
|
|||
|
|
If the <B>pthread_setconcurrency</B> function was not previously
|
|||
|
|
called, this function shall return zero to indicate that the
|
|||
|
|
implementation is maintaining the concurrency level.
|
|||
|
|
</P>
|
|||
|
|
<P>A call to <B>pthread_setconcurrency</B> shall inform the
|
|||
|
|
implementation of its desired concurrency level. The implementation
|
|||
|
|
shall use this as a hint, not a requirement.
|
|||
|
|
</P>
|
|||
|
|
<P>If an implementation does not support multiplexing of user threads
|
|||
|
|
on top of several kernel-scheduled entities, the
|
|||
|
|
<B>pthread_setconcurrency</B> and <B>pthread_getconcurrency</B>
|
|||
|
|
functions are provided for source code compatibility but they shall
|
|||
|
|
have no effect when called. To maintain the function semantics, the
|
|||
|
|
<I>new_level</I> parameter is saved when <B>pthread_setconcurrency</B>
|
|||
|
|
is called so that a subsequent call to <B>pthread_getconcurrency</B>
|
|||
|
|
shall return the same value.
|
|||
|
|
</P>
|
|||
|
|
<P><B>Pthreads-w32</B> provides these routines for source code
|
|||
|
|
compatibility only, as described in the previous paragraph.</P>

|
|||
|
|
the error.
|

</P>

|
<P>The <B>pthread_getconcurrency</B> function shall always return the

concurrency level set by a previous call to <B>pthread_setconcurrency</B>

<P>Use of these functions changes the state of the underlying

concurrency upon which the application depends. Library developers
|
|||
|
|
are advised to not use the <B>pthread_getconcurrency</B> and
|
|||
|
|
<B>pthread_setconcurrency</B> functions since their use may conflict
|
|||
|
|
with an applications use of these functions.
