linux下显示所有线程信息

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


void *print_message_function( void *ptr );


main()
{
     pthread_t thread1, thread2;
     char *message1 = "Thread 1";
     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);
     iret2 = pthread_create( &thread2, NULL, print_message_function, (void*) message2);

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

编译和运行程序

 2073  gcc -lpthread muti-thread.c
 2074  ./a.out

在另外一个putty终端上运行

root@9131-TestMAC-Compile:/home/tjiang/code/join# ps -eLF | grep a.out

root      6162  5743  6162  0    3  4567   532   0 14:46 pts/4    00:00:00 ./a.out
root      6162  5743  6163  0    3  4567   532   1 14:46 pts/4    00:00:00 ./a.out

其实在Linux中，新建的线程并不是在原先的进程中，而是系统通过一个系统调用clone()。该系统copy了一个和原先进程完全一样的进程，并在这个进程中执行线程函数。不过这个copy过程和fork不一样。 copy后的进程和原先的进程共享了所有的变量，运行环境。这样，原先进程中的变量变动在copy后的进程中便能体现出来。
