关于错误 Resource temporarily unavailable

关于错误 Resource temporarily unavailable
I remember I typed  "./client localhost & ./client localhost & ...." for repeating over 500+ times , in testing some network program.
And when I met some kind of stuck in the program, I got the error Resource temporarily unavailable, then can't start more client to test.
Even more, I can't even start a console terminator.

Here come the explanation :

Linux系统中每个线程都拥有独立的栈空间，而我的系统上调用ulimit -a看到的结果如下：

[dengwei@localhost ~]$ ulimit -a
core file size          (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited
scheduling priority             (-e) 0
file size               (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals                 (-i) 15916
max locked memory       (kbytes, -l) 64
max memory size         (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files                      (-n) 1024
pipe size            (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues     (bytes, -q) 819200
real-time priority              (-r) 0
stack size              (kbytes, -s) 8192
cpu time               (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes              (-u) 1024
virtual memory          (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks                      (-x) unlimited

 可以看到stack size是8M, 400个线程就需要8*400=3200M，虚拟内存不够用。

解决办法有两种：

1.使用ulimit -s 1024*1024命令，将线程栈大小临时设置成1M,经过试验能同时创建2000个线程了。

2.使用pthread_attr_setstacksize在程序中改变线程栈大小。
