Without this patch, systems that provide stubs for pthread functions in libc, but which still require libpthread for full the pthread implementation are not detected correctly. Also, some systems require -pthread in CFLAGS for each compilation unit for a successful link of an mt binary, which is also addressed by this patch. --- Makefile | 4 ++++ config.mak.in | 1 + configure.ac | 17 +++++++++++++++-- 3 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) Index: b/Makefile =================================================================== --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -287,6 +287,7 @@ RPMBUILD = rpmbuild TCL_PATH = tclsh TCLTK_PATH = wish PTHREAD_LIBS = -lpthread +PTHREAD_CFLAGS = export TCL_PATH TCLTK_PATH @@ -856,6 +857,8 @@ ifeq ($(uname_S),AIX) BASIC_CFLAGS += -D_LARGE_FILES ifeq ($(shell expr "$(uname_V)" : '[1234]'),1) NO_PTHREADS = YesPlease + else + PTHREAD_LIBS = -lpthread endif endif ifeq ($(uname_S),GNU) @@ -1297,6 +1300,7 @@ endif ifdef NO_PTHREADS BASIC_CFLAGS += -DNO_PTHREADS else + BASIC_CFLAGS += $(PTHREAD_CFLAGS) EXTLIBS += $(PTHREAD_LIBS) LIB_OBJS += thread-utils.o endif Index: b/configure.ac =================================================================== --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -782,7 +782,11 @@ AC_DEFUN([PTHREADTEST_SRC], [ int main(void) { pthread_mutex_t test_mutex; - return (0); + int retcode = 0; + retcode |= pthread_mutex_init(&test_mutex,(void*)0); + retcode |= pthread_mutex_lock(&test_mutex); + retcode |= pthread_mutex_unlock(&test_mutex); + return retcode; } ]) @@ -799,7 +803,8 @@ if test -n "$USER_NOPTHREAD"; then # handle these separately since PTHREAD_CFLAGS could be '-lpthreads # -D_REENTRANT' or some such. elif test -z "$PTHREAD_CFLAGS"; then - for opt in -pthread -lpthread; do + threads_found=no + for opt in -mt -pthread -lpthread; do old_CFLAGS="$CFLAGS" CFLAGS="$opt $CFLAGS" AC_MSG_CHECKING([Checking for POSIX Threads with '$opt']) @@ -807,11 +812,18 @@ elif test -z "$PTHREAD_CFLAGS"; then [AC_MSG_RESULT([yes]) NO_PTHREADS= PTHREAD_LIBS="$opt" + PTHREAD_CFLAGS="$opt" + threads_found=yes break ], [AC_MSG_RESULT([no])]) CFLAGS="$old_CFLAGS" done + if test $threads_found != yes; then + AC_CHECK_LIB([pthread], [pthread_create], + [PTHREAD_LIBS="-lpthread"], + [NO_PTHREADS=UnfortunatelyYes]) + fi else old_CFLAGS="$CFLAGS" CFLAGS="$PTHREAD_CFLAGS $CFLAGS" @@ -828,6 +840,7 @@ fi CFLAGS="$old_CFLAGS" +AC_SUBST(PTHREAD_CFLAGS) AC_SUBST(PTHREAD_LIBS) AC_SUBST(NO_PTHREADS) Index: b/config.mak.in =================================================================== --- a/config.mak.in +++ b/config.mak.in @@ -57,4 +57,5 @@ NO_DEFLATE_BOUND=@NO_DEFLATE_BOUND@ FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES=@FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES@ SNPRINTF_RETURNS_BOGUS=@SNPRINTF_RETURNS_BOGUS@ NO_PTHREADS=@NO_PTHREADS@ +PTHREAD_CFLAGS=@PTHREAD_CFLAGS@ PTHREAD_LIBS=@PTHREAD_LIBS@ -- Gary V.
