Summary
An overview of POSIX threads
Abstract
* What is threads - very generic to include Sun's lwp.
* Why use threads more in the context of single-threaded app vs. multi-threaded app and threadas vs. fork().
* Kernel threads vs. user threads. This is important in Linux 2.6+ kernels with NPTL.
* Basic thread concepts and functions: thread creation, thread join, mutex, conditions, attributes.
* Some simple examples.
