[PATCH v3 08/14] grep: clean up num_threads handling

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When NO_PTHREADS is still used in this file, we have two separate code
paths for thread and no thread support. The latter will always have
num_threads remain zero while the former uses num_threads zero as
"default number of threads".

With recent changes blur the line between thread and no-thread
support, this num_threads handling becomes a bit strange so let's
redefine it like this:

- num_threads == 0 means default number of threads and should become
  positive after all configuration and option parsing is done if
  multithread is supported.

- num_threads <= 1 runs no threads. It does not matter if the platform
  supports threading or not.

- num_threads > 1 will run multiple threads and is invalid if
  HAVE_THREADS is false. pthread API is only used in this case.

PS. a new warning is also added when num_threads is forced back to one
because a thread-incompatible option is specified.
