Re: compile glibc + nptl fail

Now I can test program with new glibc.
I use pingpong.c from sun and patch for linux to test
nptl. I met one error.  
 pp is compiled with nptl
 qq is compiled with redhat 8 glibc2 and linuxpthread
results as following:
 (1)./pp -v -i 10000 -n 120

PING-PONG CONFIGURATION:

                      target (-i) = 10000
                      ntables (-n) = 120
                      sleepms (-z) = 0
                      pthread_scope (-s) = 134517959
                      pthread_process (-p) = 134517944
                      concurrency (-c) = 0
                      stacksize (-S) = 0

240 threads initialised in 0s  31ms
120 games completed in 8s  586ms
 (2) ./qq -v -i 10000 -n 120

PING-PONG CONFIGURATION:

                      target (-i) = 10000
                      ntables (-n) = 120
                      sleepms (-z) = 0
                      pthread_scope (-s) = 134517895
                      pthread_process (-p) = 134517880
                      concurrency (-c) = 0
                      stacksize (-S) = 0

240 threads initialised in 0s  59ms
120 games completed in 12s  420ms
 (3) ./pp -v -i 10000 -n 150

PING-PONG CONFIGURATION:

                      target (-i) = 10000
                      ntables (-n) = 150
                      sleepms (-z) = 0
                      pthread_scope (-s) = 134517959
                      pthread_process (-p) = 134517944
                      concurrency (-c) = 0
                      stacksize (-S) = 0

pthread_create error, errno = 12!
 (4) ./qq -v -i 10000 -n 150

PING-PONG CONFIGURATION:

                      target (-i) = 10000
                      ntables (-n) = 150
                      sleepms (-z) = 0
                      pthread_scope (-s) = 134517895
                      pthread_process (-p) = 134517880
                      concurrency (-c) = 0
                      stacksize (-S) = 0

300 threads initialised in 0s  87ms
150 games completed in 15s  883ms
   Obviously, the max threads ping-pong with nptl can
create is limited to < 150
    ping-pong with linuxpthread has no such problem.
