Linux 如何使用pthreads屏障？

How to use pthreads barrier?

提问by Ian

Hi Sorry for posting a big dump of code but I'm very new at C code, Basically I'm doing an assignment for college and and I have to implement a "pthread_barrier", now I understand the concept of the barrier (or at least I think I do) But I am just not sure exactly where I should put it. The assignment states:

嗨，很抱歉发布了大量代码，但我对 C 代码非常陌生，基本上我正在为大学做作业，而且我必须实现一个“pthread_barrier”，现在我了解了屏障的概念（或在至少我认为我这样做）但我不确定我应该把它放在哪里。任务说明：

"Use pthread_barrier_init and pthread_barrier_wait to ensure that all producer/consumer threads begin producing/consuming at the same time."

“使用 pthread_barrier_init 和 pthread_barrier_wait 确保所有生产者/消费者线程同时开始生产/消费。”

This is the extra credit part of the assignment by the way

顺便说一下，这是作业的额外学分部分

I could probably give you the full answer but I am afraid of Lasse V. Karlsen. So I'll give you hints.

我可能会给你完整的答案，但我害怕 Lasse V. Karlsen。所以我会给你提示。

• The barrier object baris already accessible in your struct cp_t
• Initialize it with pthread_barrier_init, like you initialized the mutexes. There is a correspondence between countand the number of actors.
• Both the producers and consumers need to waitbefore starting to produce / consume. Get it ?

• 屏障对象bar已经可以在您的struct cp_t
• 用 初始化它pthread_barrier_init，就像你初始化互斥体一样。count和演员人数之间存在对应关系。
• 生产者和消费者都需要wait在开始生产/消费之前。得到它 ？
