Threading Issues
1. What is a race condition in multithreading programming?
A race condition refers to an issue that arises in an OS when two or more processes or threads execute concurrently.
2. what is the use of thread pool in multi-threading?
Thread pool is an effective management technique that prevents thread exhaustion from overuse of resources, thereby reducing the outflow of new threads in the system.
3. What’s there with thread-specific data and importance of using it in multithreading?
Thread specific data allows each thread to possess a separate copy of data for the purpose of ensuring isolated data and independent thread.
Threading Issues
Multitasking is one of the key methods, which can be applied to improve the performance of operations. In a multithreading environment, there are many threading-related problems. We shall discuss in this article threading problems associated with system calls, cancellation of threads, signal handling, thread pools, and thread-specific data.
In addition to threading problems, we shall discuss ways in which they can be handled for continued use of benefits associated with a multithreaded programming environment.
