Question

有人可以帮助我了解在子线程退出后唤醒主线程的内容吗？我的理解是join调用futex_wait，导致主线程等到子线程完成。据推测，有一个调用futex_wake来允许主线程恢复但是在两个线程上运行strace后，我无法看到唤醒父线程的系统调用的位置。

#include <iostream>
#include <thread>
#include <string>

void hello()
{
    std::cout <<"Hello Concurrent World" << std::endl;
}

int main ()
{
    std::thread t(hello);
    t.join();

    std::cout << "finished" << std::endl;
}

目前使用Ubuntu 16.10编译，clang版本3.8.1-12，内核4.8.0-34-generic

此调用：set_robust_list(0x7f123adba9e0, 24) = 0设置一个强大的futex，它会在线程退出时自动恢复。因此，唤醒futex不需要系统调用。内核将在线程退出时唤醒futex（即使线程被杀死）。

这是来自Debian延伸的痕迹片段，显示fuxes“自行”恢复：

[pid 21604] 20:38:49.614788 futex(0x7f0349dbc9d0, FUTEX_WAIT, 21605, NULL <unfinished ...>
[pid 21605] 20:38:49.614851 set_robust_list(0x7f0349dbc9e0, 24) = 0
[pid 21605] 20:38:49.614948 nanosleep({tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=100000000}, NULL) = 0
[pid 21605] 20:38:49.715377 madvise(0x7f03495bc000, 8368128, MADV_DONTNEED) = 0
