Re: gcore and nptl threads on linux


You mean add them to the `struct thread_info' list? Why not (ignoring technical realities for the moment :-)? 


How about a second list made up of thread_info structs for lwps?  That way, the current
thread routines wouldn't have to constantly validate whether the list item was
a thread or lwp.  This also would simplify the numbering system.  There
could be equivalent lwp routines for accessing the list (e.g. iterate_over_lwps() ).

Something like that. Is a new term needed though?

Have the thread and lwp code each have their own instance of a `struct tpid_info' list (struct context_info list)?
