Many-to-Many Model
n Allows many user level threads to be mapped to many
kernel threads.
n Allows the operating system to create a sufficient number
of kernel threads.
n Solaris 2
n Windows NT/2000 with the ThreadFiber package

Threading Issues
n Semantics of fork() and exec() system calls.
n Thread cancellation.
n Signal handling
n Thread pools
n Thread specific data
Operating System Concepts
5.13
Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002
Pthreads
n a POSIX standard (IEEE 1003.1c) API for thread creation
and synchronization.
n API specifies behavior of the thread library,
implementation is up to development of the library.
n Common in UNIX operating systems.

Windows 2000 Threads
n Implements the one-to-one mapping.
n Each thread contains
- a thread id
- register set
- separate user and kernel stacks
- private data storage area
Operating System Concepts
5.17
Silberschatz, Galvin and Gagne 2002
Linux Threads
n Linux refers to them as tasks rather than threads.
n Thread creation is done through clone() system call.
n Clone() allows a child task to share the address space of
the parent task (process)

Java Threads
n Java threads may be created by:
F Extending Thread class
F Implementing the Runnable interface
n Java threads are managed by the JVM.
