Description Francois-Xavier 'FiX' KOWALSKI 2003-02-19 10:27:00 UTC
Description of problem:

gcc3's "-pthread" option does not set the -D_REENTRANT compilation flag.

the link flag -lpthread is correctly set.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gcc3 -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/ia64-redhat-linux/3.0.4/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
--infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix
--disable-checking --host=ia64-redhat-linux --with-system-zlib
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.0.4 (Red Hat Linux 7.2 3.0.4-1)

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. get the attached program pthbug.c
2. compile it with gcc3 -v -pthread -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes pthbug.c
3. note that -D_REENTRANT is not defined

Actual results:

 gcc3 -v -pthread -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes pthbug.c

Additional info:

1) The following distributions+compilers are not affected by this problem.

- ia32 + RedHat 2.1AS + gcc-2.96
- ia64 + RedHat 2.1AS + gcc-2.96
- ia32 + RedHat 7.3 + gcc-2.96
- ia32 + RedHat 7.2 + gcc-2.96
- ia64 + RedHat 7.2 + gcc-2.96
    
2) An application core-dump occurs when a C++ library is unloaded (call _fini),
because the libpthread destruction invokes application destructors that are not
compiled to support multi-thread.

Still not fixed in gcc 4.0.  Upstream PR already exists:
