# SYNOPSIS
#
#   AX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]])
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
#   This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads. It
#   sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and linker
#   flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special C compiler
#   flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain compiler
#   flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment variables.)
#
#   Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for
#   multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise). (This
#   is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.)
#
#   NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these flags,
#   but also to link with them as well. For example, you might link with
#   $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS
#
#   If you are only building threaded programs, you may wish to use these
#   variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC:
#
#     LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS"
#     CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS"
#     CC="$PTHREAD_CC"
#
#   In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute constant
#   has a nonstandard name, this macro defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to
#   that name (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX).
#
#   Also HAVE_PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT is defined if pthread is found and the
#   PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT symbol is defined when compiling with
#   PTHREAD_CFLAGS.
#
#   ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads library
#   is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to run it if it
#   is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the default action
#   will define HAVE_PTHREAD.
#
#   Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or if
#   you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based on work
#   by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) (with help
#   from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros posted by
#   Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository. We are also
#   grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users.

# We must check for the threads library under a number of different

# (e.g. DEC) have both -lpthread and -lpthreads, where one of the
# libraries is broken (non-POSIX).

# Create a list of thread flags to try. Items with a "," contain both
# C compiler flags (before ",") and linker flags (after ","). Other items
# starting with a "-" are C compiler flags, and remaining items are
# library names, except for "none" which indicates that we try without
# any flags at all, and "pthread-config" which is a program returning
# the flags for the Pth emulation library.

# The ordering *is* (sometimes) important.  Some notes on the
# individual items follow:

# pthreads: AIX (must check this before -lpthread)
# none: in case threads are in libc; should be tried before -Kthread and
#       other compiler flags to prevent continual compiler warnings
# -Kthread: Sequent (threads in libc, but -Kthread needed for pthread.h)
# -pthread: Linux/gcc (kernel threads), BSD/gcc (userland threads), Tru64
#           (Note: HP C rejects this with "bad form for `-t' option")
# -pthreads: Solaris/gcc (Note: HP C also rejects)
# -mt: Sun Workshop C (may only link SunOS threads [-lthread], but it
#      doesn't hurt to check since this sometimes defines pthreads and
#      -D_REENTRANT too), HP C (must be checked before -lpthread, which
#      is present but should not be used directly; and before -mthreads,
#      because the compiler interprets this as "-mt" + "-hreads")
# -mthreads: Mingw32/gcc, Lynx/gcc
# pthread: Linux, etcetera
# --thread-safe: KAI C++
# pthread-config: use pthread-config program (for GNU Pth library)

        # (Note 1: This will need to be revisited if a system that Clang
        # supports has POSIX threads in a separate library.  This tends not
        # to be the way of modern systems, but it's conceivable.)

        # (Note 2: On some systems, notably Darwin, -pthread is not needed
        # to get POSIX threads support; the API is always present and
        # active.  We could reasonably leave PTHREAD_CFLAGS empty.  But
        # -pthread does define _REENTRANT, and while the Darwin headers
        # ignore this macro, third-party headers might not.)

        # However, older versions of Clang make a point of warning the user
        # that, in an invocation where only linking and no compilation is
        # taking place, the -pthread option has no effect ("argument unused
        # during compilation").  They expect -pthread to be passed in only
        # when source code is being compiled.
        #
        # Problem is, this is at odds with the way Automake and most other
        # C build frameworks function, which is that the same flags used in
        # compilation (CFLAGS) are also used in linking.  Many systems
        # supported by AX_PTHREAD require exactly this for POSIX threads
        # support, and in fact it is often not straightforward to specify a
        # flag that is used only in the compilation phase and not in
        # linking.  Such a scenario is extremely rare in practice.
        #
        # Even though use of the -pthread flag in linking would only print
        # a warning, this can be a nuisance for well-run software projects
        # that build with -Werror.  So if the active version of Clang has
        # this misfeature, we search for an option to squash it.
