LinuxThreads is an POSIX pthreads implementation using "kernel threads". In
this FreeBSD port, a kernel thread is started using rfork (whereas in the
original Linux implementation a kernel thread is started using the Linux clone
call). This implementaion provides a so-called one-to-one mapping of threads to
kernel schedulable entities. For more information see about the original
LinuxThreads implementation see:
http://pauillac.inria.fr/~xleroy/linuxthreads/
Note that LinuxThreads has been integrated with the GNU C library (glibc) since
version 2.0, so the above URL points to dated information.
The FreeBSD source code should be installed in /usr/src before building
linuxthreads.
