Hello,
as of libc 2.12, a process can name its threads with the
pthread_setname_np()
[http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/pthread_setname_np.3.html]
function and see later with programs like htop the resources used by the
named thread.
The patch below (the line is added just after pthread_create in
daemon.c, whatever the line number is), names all threads, created by
libmicrohttpd, as "libmicrohttpd".
I would appreciate, if this change gets incorporated.
Kind regards
Дилян
