Gnulib can guarantee that pthread.h exists, but for now, it is a dummy header with no support for most pthread_* functions. Modify our use of pthread to use function checks, rather than header checks, to determine how much pthread support is present. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add pthread. * configure.ac: Drop all pthread.h checks. Optimize function checks. Add check for pthread functions. * src/Makefile.am (libvirt_lxc_LDADD): Ensure proper link. * src/remote/remote_driver.c (remoteIOEventLoop): Depend on pthread_sigmask, now that gnulib guarantees pthread.h. * src/util/util.c (virFork): Likewise. * src/util/threads.c (threads-pthread.c): Depend on pthread_mutexattr_init, as a witness of full pthread support. * src/util/threads.h (threads-pthread.h): Likewise.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
