Pull Request Description
In GLIBC version 2.34, libpthread as a separate library has been removed. Most components that used to be in a separate shared object have been placed into the main libc object,
libc.so.6
. Due to this, the-lpthread
flag is not needed in GLIBC >= 2.34. See the following webpage for more discussion on this topic.Even with versions of GLIBC >= 2.34 or GLIBC < 2.34, we still should place the
-pthread
flag when needed.-pthread
encompasses-lpthread
, but it also defines extra macros. From the man pages for gcc the following is stated for the-pthread
flag: You should use this option consistently for both compilation and linking.Author Checklist
