Hi,

I have few questions about Posix thread (pthread) support in
FreeBSD-2.2.2-RELEASE

1. Is it 100 % complint to POSIX standards?
2. Is it kernel or user threads?
3. After recompiling libc_r  i.e.
cd  /usr/src/lib/libc_r
make depend && make all && make install

Will all the libraries be thread-safe?

4. Is this implementation of pthread is stable?


Thanks
Suresh
