kernel_thread()、daemonize()
------------------------------------------------------
int thread_func(void *arg)
{
/*
* 设置线程名 -- thread_name,ps可以看到的线程名
* 如果不使用daemonize设置内核线程名,并且kernel_thread()
* 是用户态程序通过系统调用使用的,则ps将看到一个和用户进程同名
* 的一个内核线程。
*/
daemonize("thread_name");
return 0;
}
{
pid_t pid;
/* 创建内核线程 */
pid = kernel_thread(thread_func, NULL, CLONE_KERNEL);
if (pid < 0)
{
printk("kernel_thread error\n");
}
}
kthread_run() -- 这种创建方式比较简洁
------------------------------------------------------
#include <linux/kthread.h>
int thread_func(void *arg)
{
return 0;
}
{
struct task_struct * my_thread = NULL;
int rc;
my_thread = kthread_run(thread_func, NULL, "thread_name");
if (IS_ERR(my_thread))
{
rc = PTR_ERR(my_thread);
printk("error %d create thread_name thread", rc);
}
}
注: kthread_run()最终调用kernel_thread()创建线程
kernel_thread()类似application编程里面的fork()
