• _POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L
Required by pthread.
• libpthread.*
Kernel thread library used on 11.x systems
See “Using Threads” (page 163) for more information.
NOTE: Make sure that -mt is used consistently at compile and link times. When you link with
-mt, everything must be compiled with -mt, even if you do not think your file will be used in a
threaded application. When you incorrectly mix and match with -mt, you get a runtime abort with
the following message:
aCC runtime: Use of "-mt" must be consistent during both compilation and linking.
To find the library or object that is missing -mt, use /usr/ccs/bin/footprints and look for
the following:
-mt [(off) 1] -mt [on 1] (Or not present)
The number 1 above is the count of objects with that -mt setting. Not present implies the source
was not compiled with a recent compiler that contains this information.
+O[no]autopar
+O[no]autopar
The +Oautopar option enables automatic parallelization of loops that are deemed safe and
profitable by the loop transformer.
Usage:
This optimization allows applications to exploit otherwise idle resources on multicore or
multiprocessor systems by automatically transforming serial loops into multithreaded parallel code.
When the +Oautopar option is used at optimization levels +O3 and above, the compiler
automatically parallelizes those loops that are deemed safe and profitable by the loop transformer.
Automatic parallelization can be combined with manual parallelization through the use of OpenMP
directives and the +Oopenmp option. When both +Oopenmp and +Oautopar options are specified,
then any existing OpenMP directives take precedence, and the compiler will only consider
auto-parallelizing other loops that are not controlled by those directives.
Programs compiled with the +Oautopar option require the libcps, libomp, and libpthreads runtime
support libraries to be present at both compilation and runtime. When linking with the HP-UX
B.11.61 linker, compiling with the +Oautoparoption causes them to be automatically included.
Older linkers require those libraries to be specified explicitly or by compiling with +Oopenmp.
The +Oautopar option is supported when compiling C, C++, or Fortran files. Specifying
+Oautopar implies the -mt option.
The default is +Onoautopar, which disables automatic parallelization of loops.
+tls=[static|dynamic]
+tls=[static|dynamic]
The +tls option specifies whether references to thread local data items are to be performed
according to the mode.
Usage:
+tls=mode
The defined values of mode are:
static This is a more efficient mode in which only thread local data in the program startup
set can be accessed.
