pthread_create returns error code 11
Harshith
the process. But i want to use only about 24 threads at a given time,
and i destroy the threads (or atleast i thought so) can someone tell
me what i am doing wrong here it would be of great help! thanks!
for (i=0; i<no_pairs; ){
for (j=0; j<MAX_THREADS && i<no_pairs; j++,i++){
data[j].a = seeds[i/no_seeds];
data[j].b = seeds[i%no_seeds];
data[j].N = N;
data[j].L = nones+nzeros;
data[j].p1 = get_string (seeds[i/no_seeds], nzeros
+nones-1);
data[j].p2 = get_string (seeds[i%no_seeds], nzeros
+nones-1);
data[j].results = pairs[i];
rc = pthread_create (&threads[j], &attr, run_actree,
(void*)&data[j]);
if (rc) {
printf ("ERROR; return code from pthread_create() is %d
\n", rc);
exit (-1);
}
}
for (k=0; k<j; k++){
rc = pthread_join (threads[k], &status);
if (rc) {
printf("ERROR; return code from pthread_join() is %d
\n", rc);
exit(-1);
}
}
}
pthread_attr_destroy (&attr);
Above is the main loop i create threads in, MAX_THREADS = 24
the number of pairs is about 300 million, the above code worked
correctly (or atleast the results seemed correct and there were no
errors) for 2 million pairs.

Whether or not this should work, why would someone want to do
something so horribly awful?

anyways i found out the reason and it turns out it has nothing to do
with this code - its because 300 million just makes me run out of 8 gb
or ram and 16 gb of swap :)
anyways barcelona won the champiions league hurray!!
and sorry for wasting your time with this post :)

I don't see why that requires you to create and destroy threads rather
than reusing them.
