| Description: | Can't use threads on OS X. The thread interface needs implementing on OS X. So that clients can use threads. Thread interface is necessary to scan the stacks of other threads. Therefore need it when a client wishes to register the stack of more than one thread as a root. If the client wants to be multithreaded and call the MPS from different threads (which is an obviously related issue), then they need an MPS with locks. See job001622. |
| Analysis: | thfri4.c may be a good starting point. OS X is implemented on both PowerPC and Intel; concentrate on Intel first. |
| How found: | unknown |
