Bug ID: 25158
Summary: warning when using non-thread-safe functions
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: nptl
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: tromey at sourceware dot org
CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
We're converting gdb to use threads, and while doing so we're
finding that gdb uses a variety of functions which are
not thread-safe, for example strtok.
I noticed that linking will give a warning when trying to
use some functions like mktemp, and I wondered it if would
be possible to extend this method to warn about the use of
non-thread-safe functions when -lpthread is used. This way,
we could be sure that not only gdb but also supporting
libraries in the tree have been updated.
