进程是操作系统的最小资源管理单元, 线程是操作系统最小的执行单元。 一个进程可以有多个线程, 也就是说多个线程分享进程的资源,包括栈区,堆区,代码区,数据区等。

32bit x86机器上面,执行ulimit -a的命令, 可以看到
stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192 这是否说明在线程中可以分配8M的局部变量(或者说分配7M的局部变量,还有1M的空间存储其他的局部变量或者寄存器状态信息(例如bp等)或者函数压栈信息等)
写代码验证如下:
[cpp] view plain copy
- //test2.cpp
- #include <iostream>
- #include <string.h>
- #include <pthread.h>
- #include <stdio.h>
- using namespace std;
- void* func(void*a)
- {
- cout << "enter func" << endl;
- cout << "enter func" << endl;
- int b[1024*1024*2] = {0};
- }
- int main()
- {
- int a[1024*1024*3/2]={0};
- pthread_t pthread ;
- pthread_create(&pthread, NULL, func, NULL);
- cout << "This is a test" << endl;
- //pthread_join(pthread, NULL);
- return 0;
- }
g++ -g -o test2 test2.cpp -lpthread
sundh@linux:~$ gdb test2

GDB调试结果如上。 main() 函数中分配1.5M的局部变量,是不会报错的, 但子线程中分配2M的局部变量,就会coredump。 可见,只能分配不大于2M的局部变量,但ulimit -a 查询到的stack size 为8M。
猜想: 线程只能分配不大于 1/4 大小的 stack size 给 局部变量, 这应该是操作系统的规定。(没在网络上面找到相关的文档说明)
那我们现在开始验证我们的猜想:
通过 ulimit -s命令修改默认的栈大小, 下面程序分配5M的局部变量, 也就是说线程栈的大小要 > 20M(5M*4)
[cpp] view plain copy
- //test1.cpp
- #include <iostream>
- #include <string.h>
- #include <pthread.h>
- #include <stdio.h>
- using namespace std;
- void* func(void*a)
- {
- cout << "enter func" << endl;
- cout << "enter func" << endl;
- int b[1024*1024*5] = {0};
- }
- int main()
- {
- int a[1024*1024*5]={0};
- pthread_t pthread ;
- pthread_create(&pthread, NULL, func, NULL);
- cout << "This is a test" << endl;
- //pthread_join(pthread, NULL);
- return 0;
- }
ulimit -s 21504 (也就是21M) , 把默认的stack size设置为21M
sundh@linux:~$ ulimit -s 21504
sundh@linux:~$ g++ -g -o test2 test2.cpp -lpthread
sundh@linux:~$ ./test2
This is a testenter func
enter func
可以成功运行, 验证了我们的猜想。
ulimit -s 修改 stack size, 也可以通过 pthread_attr_setstacksize() 来修改。 使用ulimit的一个后果就是它会影响到同一环境(同一shell或者终端)下后续启动的所有程序,如果修改成启动时设置的话就会影响到整个系统。 所以大部分情况下还是使用pthread_attr_setstacksize()

程序可以正常运行。 这里需要注意的一点是,主线程还是使用系统默认的stack size,也即8M, 不能在main()
里面声明超过2M的局部变量,创建子线程的时候调用了pthread_attr_setstacksize(), 修改stack size为21M,然后就能在子线程中声明5M的局部变量了。
