What would be the output in Line A and Line B? Do you think there is synchronization problem in updating the variable value? Answer Child value is 200 and Parent value is 300 always. pthread_join causes the main thread to wait until the other thread finishes executing. Both threads are acting on the same glob…

Multithreaded word count in C
I know I said I would try to figure it out on my own and I really did, and then I looked elsewhere first before posting here again but then I just ended up with this mess: How best should I fix this? Specifically these errors and warnings: I think the part for counting words from the buffer is okay,
error: static assertion failed: std::thread arguments must be invocable after conversion to rvalues
I am trying to add a std::function to std::thread and i stumble upon this error Why is this not working? Answer The initial integer value is missing when thread ctor is called: thread(std::ref(tfunc), 123). Function of thread body takes integer, you need to provide it when thread starts.
mmap: performance when using multithreading
I have a program which performs some operations on a lot of files (> 10 000). It spawns N worker threads and each thread mmaps some file, does some work and munmaps it. The problem I am facing right now is that whenever I use just 1 process with N worker threads, it has worse performance than spawning 2 pr…
Rails task not running unless rails runner has been executed in the command prompt since the linux server machine’s bootup
I’m trying to execute this task to update a large amount of data from a controller so that when an administrator user accesses this method it will run the said task. I’ve confirmed that there aren’t any issues with the task itself, but I’m not so sure about the way it’s being cal…
Thread Program on Linux (Posix Thread)
I want to modify the multithread program on the Linux operating system using this Pthread API. I want to change that program into a program that has 2 threads that work together to add a number. But i don’t know how to change it, Thanks again for any help that can be offered. I am sorry,because I’…
How does pthread_cond_wait (conditon variable) unblock all threads only once, not multiple times?
I have successfully implemented a producer thread and 2 worker threads or consumer threads. The producer thread broadcasts condition using pthread_cond_broadcast. And the worker threads are blocked by pthread_cond_wait. The code looks something likes this: Thread 1 (Producer Thread): Thread 2 (Worker/Consumer…
How can I accomplish multiple threads to join multiple times into a process? (pthread_mutex_lock)
I want to write a program, what counts to 100. I want to accomplish this with 10 threads, using pthread lock. When the program steps into a thread it generates a number between 0-2, this value will be added to it’s index of array and also to the global variable sum. When the sum value reaches 100, every…
Who creates the Threads? Programmer, OS, Compiler OR Programming Language?
who is the first and main creator of threads? if a programming language does not support threads, can we run multithreading on it? if an OS does not support threads, can we run multithreading on it? Answer Lets look at definations: Kernel-Level and User-Level threads; cs.iit.edu User-Level Threads Kernel-Leve…
Multithreading with Semaphor, Mutex and PThread
Me and a friend are currently working on basic multithreading examples for university in c. We’re supposed to solve the producer/consumer problem with a multithreaded buffer. We’ve got a working version using mutex and conditional variables, but trying to solve this using semaphores and mutex were…
