Subject: Thread handles
Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2003 22:21:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030114222151.GA8975@nevyn.them.org> (raw)
Roland,
My question is about the precise lifetime of a td_thrhandle_t, in both
LinuxThreads' and NPTL's thread_db implementations. Right now, GDB
re-queries for the thread handles every time the target stops. This hurts a
lot... from the implementation, I believe they'll remain valid over time,
until the thread exits. Is this right/reasonable?
I'm not worried if one thread handle could be eventually re-used for another
thread after the first exits; we'll notice the thread exit, discard the
thread handle, and go on with our lives.
