<em class="quotelev1">> Red Hat Linux 9 includes the Native POSIX Thread Library (NPTL), a new
<em class="quotelev1">> implementation of POSIX threads for Linux. This library provides
<em class="quotelev1">> performance improvements and increased scalability for i686 or better
<em class="quotelev1">> processors.
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> This thread library is designed to be binary compatible with the old
<em class="quotelev1">> LinuxThreads implementation; however, applications that rely on the places
<em class="quotelev1">> where the LinuxThreads implementation deviates from the POSIX standard will
<em class="quotelev1">> need to be fixed. Notable differences include:
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> - - Signal handling has changed from per-thread signal handling to POSIX
<em class="quotelev1">> process signal handling.
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> - - getpid() returns the same value in all threads.
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> - - Thread handlers registered with pthread_atfork are not run if vfork()
<em class="quotelev1">> is used â?? no manager thread
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> Applications that are known to have problems using NPTL include:
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> - - Sun JRE prior to version 1.4.1
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> - - IBM JRE
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> If an application does not work properly with NPTL, it can be run using the
<em class="quotelev1">> old LinuxThreads implementation by setting the following environment
<em class="quotelev1">> variable:
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=<kernel-version>
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> The following versions are available:
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> - - 2.4.1 â?? Linuxthreads with floating stacks
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> - - 2.2.5 â?? Linuxthreads without floating stacks
<em class="quotelev1">>
<em class="quotelev1">> NPTL support for all dynamically-linked applications can be disabled by

<em class="quotelev1">> ...
<em class="quotelev1">> The kernel support for the new NPTL feature changes several internal kernel
<em class="quotelev1">> programming interfaces significantly. As a result, several external kernel
<em class="quotelev1">> modules may not compile without modifications to match the new interfaces.
<em class="quotelev1">> Examples currently include the NVIDIA and ATI 3D modules, as well as any
