Yes. > Are NPTL threads are > "processes" internally? No. By definition, all the threads belong to a single process. NPTL threads are based on KSEs (kernel scheduling entities). A non-threaded process is also a KSE. A threaded process is more than one KSEs. All KSE are, obviously, scheduled by the kernel. > Thanks! You're welcome.
