How do threads work in C?
A multithreaded program contains two or more parts that can run concurrently. Each part of such a program is called a thread, and each thread defines a separate path of execution. C does not contain any built-in support for multithreaded applications.
How do you create multiple threads in Linux?
It uses the pthread_create() function to create two threads. The starting function for both the threads is kept same. Inside the function ‘doSomeThing()’, the thread uses pthread_self() and pthread_equal() functions to identify whether the executing thread is the first one or the second one as created.
Can a thread create another thread in C?
Yes. The typical problem, however, is that the work/threads are not constrained. Using the approach you have outlined, it’s easy to spawn many threads and have an illogically high number of threads for the work which must be executed on a limited number of cores.
What thread means?
A thread is a virtual version of a CPU core. To create a thread, Intel CPUs uses hyper-threading, and AMD CPUs uses simultaneous multithreading, or SMT for short (they’re the same thing). These are both names for the process of breaking up physical cores into virtual cores (threads) to increase performance.
Can I start a thread within a thread?
To answer the question, yes threads can launch other threads. In the run() method of a thread – you can create and start other threads.
