Implementation of Multi-threading Library in C

This is an implementation of multi-threading library in C. There are two separate folders containing two different libraries implemented using two different thread scheduling approaches.

1. One to One approach. (one user thread is associated with one kernel thread).
2. Many to One Approach . (Many user threads are associated to one kernel thread).

Steps to compile and use the library.

Run following commands.

git clone https://gitlab.com/nachiket59/threading_library

There are two folders in the repository containing two different implementations. Navigate to whichever folder (implementation) and run following commands.

make

Use the above command to compile the library. This will crate np_threadlib file, then include np_threadlib.h into your C code and compile. For example you have a file code.c.

#include "np_threadlib.h"

gcc -c code.c
gcc -o code code.o np_threadlib
./code

Each folder contains testing_files folder. Navigate to that folder and run following commands in order to perform conformance tests.

make
make run

This will start execution of multiple C codes written to perform various tests.
