Local variables - live on the stack, so those are fine. You need to watch out for any - static or global variables. This doesn't mean that you are absolutely not - allowed to use static or global variables. There are times when you - actually want something to affect all threads, but generally you need to - avoid using them if you want your code to be thread safe.</p> - - <p>In the case where you have a global variable that needs to be global and - accessed by all threads, be very careful when you update it. If, for - example, it is an incrementing counter, you need to atomically increment - it to avoid race conditions with other threads. You do this using a mutex - (mutual exclusion). Lock the mutex, read the current value, increment it - and write it back and then unlock the mutex. Any other thread that wants - to modify the value has to first check the mutex and block until it is - cleared.</p> - - <p>If you are using <a href="http://apr.apache.org/">APR</a>, have a look - at the <code>apr_atomic_<var>*</var></code> functions and the - <code>apr_thread_mutex_<var>*</var></code> functions.</p> - -</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> -<div class="section"> -<h2><a name="errno" id="errno">errno</a></h2> - <p>This is a common global variable that holds the error number of the - last error that occurred. If one thread calls a low-level function that - sets errno and then another thread checks it, we are bleeding error - numbers from one thread into another. To solve this, make sure your - module or library defines <code>_REENTRANT</code> or is compiled with - <code>-D_REENTRANT</code>. This will make errno a per-thread variable - and should hopefully be transparent to the code. It does this by doing - something like this:</p> - - <div class="example"><p><code> - #define errno (*(__errno_location())) - </code></p></div> - - <p>which means that accessing errno will call - <code>__errno_location()</code> which is provided by the libc. Setting - <code>_REENTRANT</code> also forces redefinition of some other functions - to their <code><var>*</var>_r</code> equivalents and sometimes changes - the common <code>getc</code>/<code>putc</code> macros into safer function - calls. Check your libc documentation for specifics. Instead of, or in - addition to <code>_REENTRANT</code> the symbols that may affect this are - <code>_POSIX_C_SOURCE</code>, <code>_THREAD_SAFE</code>, - <code>_SVID_SOURCE</code>, and <code>_BSD_SOURCE</code>.</p> -</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> -<div class="section"> -<h2><a name="functions" id="functions">Common standard troublesome functions</a></h2> - <p>Not only do things have to be thread safe, but they also have to be - reentrant. <code>strtok()</code> is an obvious one. You call it the first - time with your delimiter which it then remembers and on each subsequent - call it returns the next token. Obviously if multiple threads are - calling it you will have a problem. Most systems have a reentrant version - of of the function called <code>strtok_r()</code> where you pass in an - extra argument which contains an allocated <code>char *</code> which the - function will use instead of its own static storage for maintaining - the tokenizing state. If you are using <a href="http://apr.apache.org/">APR</a> you can use <code>apr_strtok()</code>.</p> - - <p><code>crypt()</code> is another function that tends to not be reentrant, - so if you run across calls to that function in a library, watch out. On - some systems it is reentrant though, so it is not always a problem. If - your system has <code>crypt_r()</code> chances are you should be using - that, or if possible simply avoid the whole mess by using md5 instead.</p> - -</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> -<div class="section"> -<h2><a name="commonlibs" id="commonlibs">Common 3rd Party Libraries</a></h2> - <p>The following is a list of common libraries that are used by 3rd party - Apache modules. You can check to see if your module is using a potentially - unsafe library by using tools such as <code>ldd(1)</code> and - <code>nm(1)</code>.
