POSIX thread (pthread) libraries

The POSIX thread libraries are a standards based thread API for C/C++. It allows one to spawn a new concurrent
process flow. It is most effective on multi-processor or multi-core systems where the process flow can be scheduled to
run on another processor thus gaining speed through parallel or distributed processing. Threads require less overhead
than "forking" or spawning a new process because the system does not initialize a new system virtual memory space
and environment for the process. While most effective on a multiprocessor system, gains are also found on
uniprocessor systems which exploit latency in I/O and other system functions which may halt process execution. (One
thread may execute while another is waiting for I/O or some other system latency.) Parallel programming technologies
such as MPI and PVM are used in a distributed computing environment while threads are limited to a single computer
system. All threads within a process share the same address space. A thread is spawned by defining a function and its
arguments which will be processed in the thread. The purpose of using the POSIX thread library in your software is to
execute software faster.

#include <pthread.h>

void *print_message_function( void *ptr );

main()
{
pthread_t thread1, thread2;

char *message2 = "Thread 2";
int iret1, iret2;

/* Create independent threads each of which will execute function */

iret1 = pthread_create( &thread1, NULL, print_message_function, (void*) message1);

/* wait we run the risk of executing an exit which will terminate */

/* the process and all threads before the threads have completed. */

pthread_join( thread1, NULL);

pthread_join( thread2, NULL);

printf("Thread 1 returns: %d\n",iret1);

printf("Thread 2 returns: %d\n",iret2);
exit(0);
}

void *print_message_function( void *ptr )

{
char *message;
message = (char *) ptr;
printf("%s \n", message);
}

Compile:

C compiler: cc -lpthread pthread1.c

or
C++ compiler: g++ -lpthread pthread1.c

Run: ./a.out
Results:
Thread 1
Thread 2
Thread 1 returns: 0
Thread 2 returns: 0

Details:

In this example the same function is used in each thread. The arguments are different. The functions need not be
the same.

Threads terminate by explicitly calling pthread_exit, by letting the function return, or by a call to the function exit
which will terminate the process including any threads.

Thread Synchronization:

The threads library provides three synchronization mechanisms:

mutexes - Mutual exclusion lock: Block access to variables by other threads. This enforces exclusive access by a
thread to a variable or set of variables.
joins - Make a thread wait till others are complete (terminated).
condition variables - data type pthread_cond_t

Mutexes:

Mutexes are used to prevent data inconsistencies due to operations by multiple threads upon the same memory area
performed at the same time or to prevent race conditions where an order of operation upon the memory is expected. A
contention or race condition often occurs when two or more threads need to perform operations on the same memory
area, but the results of computations depends on the order in which these operations are performed. Mutexes are used
for serializing shared resources such as memory. Anytime a global resource is accessed by more than one thread the
resource should have a Mutex associated with it. One can apply a mutex to protect a segment of memory ("critical
region") from other threads. Mutexes can be applied only to threads in a single process and do not work between
processes as do semaphores.

Example threaded function:

When a mutex lock is attempted against a mutex which is held by another thread, the thread is blocked until the mutex is
unlocked. When a thread terminates, the mutex does not unless explicitly unlocked. Nothing happens by default.

Joins:

A join is performed when one wants to wait for a thread to finish. A thread calling routine may launch multiple threads then
wait for them to finish to get the results. One waits for the completion of the threads with a join.

Sample code: join1.c

#include <stdio.h>
#include <pthread.h>

#define NTHREADS 10
void *thread_function(void *);
pthread_mutex_t mutex1 = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
int counter = 0;

main()
{
pthread_t thread_id[NTHREADS];
int i, j;

for(i=0; i < NTHREADS; i++)

{
pthread_create( &thread_id[i], NULL, thread_function, NULL );
}

for(j=0; j < NTHREADS; j++)

{
pthread_join( thread_id[j], NULL);
}

/* Now that all threads are complete I can print the final result. */
/* Without the join I could be printing a value before all the threads */
/* have been completed. */

printf("Final counter value: %d\n", counter);

}

void *thread_function(void *dummyPtr)

{
printf("Thread number %ld\n", pthread_self());
pthread_mutex_lock( &mutex1 );
counter++;
pthread_mutex_unlock( &mutex1 );
}

Compile: cc -lpthread join1.c

Run: ./a.out

Condition Variables:

A condition variable is a variable of type pthread_cond_t and is used with the appropriate functions for waiting and later,
process continuation. The condition variable mechanism allows threads to suspend execution and relinquish the processor
until some condition is true. A condition variable must always be associated with a mutex to avoid a race condition created
by one thread preparing to wait and another thread which may signal the condition before the first thread actually waits on
it resulting in a deadlock. The thread will be perpetually waiting for a signal that is never sent. Any mutex can be used,
there is no explicit link between the mutex and the condition variable.

Functions used in conjunction with the condition variable:

Creating/Destroying:
pthread_cond_init
pthread_cond_t cond = PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER;
pthread_cond_destroy
Waiting on condition:
pthread_cond_wait
pthread_cond_timedwait - place limit on how long it will block.
Waking thread based on condition:
pthread_cond_signal
pthread_cond_broadcast - wake up all threads blocked by the specified condition variable.

Example code: cond1.c

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <pthread.h>

pthread_mutex_t count_mutex = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;

pthread_mutex_t condition_mutex = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
pthread_cond_t condition_cond = PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER;

pthread_join( thread2, NULL);

for(;;)
{
pthread_mutex_lock( &condition_mutex );
while( count >= COUNT_HALT1 && count <= COUNT_HALT2 )

pthread_cond_wait( &condition_cond, &condition_mutex );
}
pthread_mutex_unlock( &condition_mutex );

pthread_mutex_lock( &count_mutex );

printf("Counter value functionCount1: %d\n",count);
pthread_mutex_unlock( &count_mutex );

if(count >= COUNT_DONE) return(NULL);

}
}

Counter value functionCount2: 6
Counter value functionCount2: 7
Counter value functionCount1: 8
Counter value functionCount1: 9
Counter value functionCount1: 10
Counter value functionCount2: 11

Note that functionCount1() was halted while count was between the values COUNT_HALT1 and COUNT_HALT2. The
only thing that has been ensures is that functionCount2 will increment the count between the values COUNT_HALT1 and
COUNT_HALT2. Everything else is random.

The logic conditions (the "if" and "while" statements) must be chosen to insure that the "signal" is executed if the "wait" is
ever processed. Poor software logic can also lead to a deadlock condition.

Note: Race conditions abound with this example because count is used as the condition and can't be locked in the while
statement without causing deadlock. I'll work on a cleaner example but it is an example of a condition variable.

Thread Scheduling:

When this option is enabled, each thread may have its own scheduling properties. Scheduling attributes may be specified:

during thread creation

by dynamically by changing the attributes of a thread already created
by defining the effect of a mutex on the thread's scheduling when creating a mutex
by dynamically changing the scheduling of a thread during synchronization operations.

The threads library provides default values that are sufficient for most cases.

Thread Pitfalls:

Race conditions: While the code may appear on the screen in the order you wish the code to execute, threads are
scheduled by the operating system and are executed at random. It cannot be assumed that threads are executed in
the order they are created. They may also execute at different speeds. When threads are executing (racing to
complete) they may give unexpected results (race condition). Mutexes and joins must be utilized to achieve a
predictable execution order and outcome.

Thread safe code: The threaded routines must call functions which are "thread safe". This means that there are no
static or global variables which other threads may clobber or read assuming single threaded operation. If static or
global variables are used then mutexes must be applied or the functions must be re-written to avoid the use of these
variables. In C, local variables are dynamically allocated on the stack. Therefore, any function that does not use
static data or other shared resources is thread-safe. Thread-unsafe functions may be used by only one thread at a
time in a program and the uniqueness of the thread must be ensured. Many non-reentrant functions return a pointer
to static data. This can be avoided by returning dynamically allocated data or using caller-provided storage. An
example of a non-thread safe function is strtok which is also not re-entrant. The "thread safe" version is the
re-entrant version strtok_r.

Mutex Deadlock: This condition occurs when a mutex is applied but then not "unlocked". This causes program
execution to halt indefinitely. It can also be caused by poor application of mutexes or joins. Be careful when applying
two or more mutexes to a section of code. If the first pthread_mutex_lock is applied and the second
pthread_mutex_lock fails due to another thread applying a mutex, the first mutex may eventually lock all other
threads from accessing data including the thread which holds the second mutex. The threads may wait indefinitely
for the resource to become free causing a deadlock. It is best to test and if failure occurs, free the resources and
stall before retrying.

Linux Tutorial: POSIX Threads http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialPosixThreads.html

...
pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex_1);
while ( pthread_mutex_trylock(&mutex_2) ) /* Test if already locked */
{
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex_1); /* Free resource to avoid deadlock */
...
/* stall here */
...
pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex_1);
}
count++;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex_1);
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex_2);
...

The order of applying the mutex is also important. The following code segment illustrates a potential for deadlock:

void *function1()
{
...
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock1); - Execution step 1
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock2); - Execution step 3 DEADLOCK!!!
...
...
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock2);
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock1);
...
}

void *function2()
{
...
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock2); - Execution step 2
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock1);
...
...
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock1);
pthread_mutex_lock(&lock2);
...
}

main()
{
...
pthread_create(&thread1, NULL, function1, NULL);
pthread_create(&thread2, NULL, function1, NULL);
...
}

If function1 acquires the first mutex and function2 acquires the second, all resources are tied up and locked.

Condition Variable Deadlock: The logic conditions (the "if" and "while" statements) must be chosen to insure that the
"signal" is executed if the "wait" is ever processed.
