在 C 语言中使用 thread_local 变量
本文将介绍几种如何在 C 语言中使用 thread_local 变量的方法。
使用 _Thread_local 类型声明带有线程存储持续时间的变量
C 语言为不同的存储类别定义了多个关键字，例如 auto，static，register，extern。从 C11 标准的规范开始，添加了 _Thread_local 指定符。_Thread_local 存储持续时间始于线程创建时，并终止于线程终止。启动线程时，将初始化存储在 _Thread_local 对象中的值，并在线程终止时对其进行清理。通常，线程局部对象是避免共享资源中竞争条件的另一种选择。也就是说，我们隐式地将线程之间的数据分开，因为 _Thread_local 合格的对象为每个线程具有单独的实例。
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <threads.h>
#include <stdatomic.h>
#ifndef NUM_THREADS
#define NUM_THREADS 4
#endif
_Thread_local int counter = 0;
enum {MAX_ITER = 10000};
void *incrementCounter(void *thr_id) {
long tid;
tid = (long)thr_id;
printf("thread %ld started incrementing ID - %lu\n", tid, thrd_current());
for (int i = 0; i < MAX_ITER; ++i) {
counter += 1;
}
return (void *)counter;
}
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
thrd_t threads[NUM_THREADS];
int rc, sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_THREADS; ++i) {
rc = thrd_create(&threads[i], (thrd_start_t) incrementCounter, (void *)i);
if (rc == thrd_error) {
printf("ERORR; thrd_create() call failed\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
}
int retval;
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_THREADS; ++i) {
thrd_join(threads[i], &retval);
sum += retval;
}
printf("count = %d\n", sum);
thrd_exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
输出：
thread 1 started incrementing ID - 140162648991488
thread 0 started incrementing ID - 140162657384192
thread 2 started incrementing ID - 140162640598784
thread 3 started incrementing ID - 140162632206080
count = 40000
使用 thread_local 类型声明具有线程存储持续时间的变量
另外，C 语言定义了一个宏表达式 thread_local，以将说明符表示为 _Thread_local。注意，应该在文件作用域中声明 thread_local 变量，以使其对所有线程可见，否则用户也可以显式添加 static 说明符，以将其作用域扩展到文件级。由于线程应将 thread_local 对象的值传达给主线程，因此需要修改程序结构。应该修改实现简单计数器程序的先前示例代码，以将递增的计数器值传递回调用线程。因此，我们需要利用 thrd_join 函数及其第二个参数来存储线程例程的返回值。请注意，所有递增的值都应在主线程中求和，这也负责将最终结果打印到 stdout。
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <threads.h>
#include <stdatomic.h>
#ifndef NUM_THREADS
#define NUM_THREADS 4
#endif
thread_local int counter = 0;
enum {MAX_ITER = 10000};
void *incrementCounter(void *thr_id) {
long tid;
tid = (long)thr_id;
printf("thread %ld started incrementing ID - %lu\n", tid, thrd_current());
for (int i = 0; i < MAX_ITER; ++i) {
counter += 1;
}
return (void *)counter;
}
int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
thrd_t threads[NUM_THREADS];
int rc, sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_THREADS; ++i) {
rc = thrd_create(&threads[i], (thrd_start_t) incrementCounter, (void *)i);
if (rc == thrd_error) {
printf("ERORR; thrd_create() call failed\n");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
}
int retval;
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_THREADS; ++i) {
thrd_join(threads[i], &retval);
sum += retval;
}
printf("count = %d\n", sum);
thrd_exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
输出：
thread 1 started incrementing ID - 140162648991488
thread 2 started incrementing ID - 140162640598784
thread 0 started incrementing ID - 140162657384192
thread 3 started incrementing ID - 140162632206080
count = 40000
