That would be one approach, yes. But IMO it has some disadvantages over registering a hook into 'odp_init_local': 1. Users must call 'stl_odp_local_init' upon program init (and not odp_init_local). 2. 'odp_init_local' is currently invoked automatically from the thread created by 'odph_linux_pthread_create()'. (See odp_run_start_routine, which first calls 'odp_init_local' and only then calls the user's start_routine). Meaning, following the 'stl_odp_local_init' paradigm, I would also need to expose a 'stl_odph_linux_pthread_create()' that properly invokes 'stl_odp_local_init' automatically, too. Combine these two, and let's even imagine there's more than one "entity" that requires per-thread initialization - following the 'stl_odp_local_init' approach might get messy.
