-Currently, glibc's `sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/posix_opt.h` is patched in Debian -to add all the defines advertizing thread-related support. -An idea to avoid this would be to follow what is done in NPTL, and do the -following: - - - in glibc: leave `sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/posix_opt.h` with *no* -thread-related macros at all. - - - in libpthread: provide `sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/posix_opt.h` which would -be a copy of glibc's `sysdeps/mach/hurd/bits/posix_opt.h` with also the thread -macros. - -This approach would have the drawback that changes in the glibc header must be -mirrored also in the libpthread version, but with the advantage that defines -according to supported features in libpthread can be added in libpthread's own -version (and glibc would pick it automatically). - -### Tests - -The (few) existing tests are not built (thus neither run) just like other tests -in glibc. - -### `gai_misc.h` - -A pthread version of `gai_misc.h` must be provided by libpthread (just like -NPTL provides one), either in `sysdeps/mach/hurd` or `sysdeps/pthread` -(better). - -Currently, it is provided in glibc itself in Debian. |
