21 : * Threading sometimes requires specially-named versions of functions
22 : * that return data in static buffers, like strerror_r() instead of
23 : * strerror(). Other operating systems use pthread_setspecific()
24 : * and pthread_getspecific() internally to allow standard library
25 : * functions to return static data to threaded applications. And some
26 : * operating systems have neither.
27 : *
28 : * Additional confusion exists because many operating systems that
29 : * use pthread_setspecific/pthread_getspecific() also have *_r versions
30 : * of standard library functions for compatibility with operating systems
31 : * that require them. However, internally, these *_r functions merely
32 : * call the thread-safe standard library functions.
33 : *
34 : * For example, BSD/OS 4.3 uses Bind 8.2.3 for getpwuid(). Internally,
35 : * getpwuid() calls pthread_setspecific/pthread_getspecific() to return
36 : * static data to the caller in a thread-safe manner. However, BSD/OS
37 : * also has getpwuid_r(), which merely calls getpwuid() and shifts
38 : * around the arguments to match the getpwuid_r() function declaration.
39 : * Therefore, while BSD/OS has getpwuid_r(), it isn't required. It also
40 : * doesn't have strerror_r(), so we can't fall back to only using *_r
41 : * functions for threaded programs.
42 : *
43 : * The current setup is to try threading in this order:
44 : *
45 : * use *_r function names if they exit
46 : * (*_THREADSAFE=yes)
47 : * use non-*_r functions if they are thread-safe
48 : *
49 : * One thread-safe solution for gethostbyname() might be to use getaddrinfo().
50 : *
51 : * Run src/test/thread to test if your operating system has thread-safe
52 : * non-*_r functions.
