[PATCH] Linux implementation for set_native_thread_name() (original) (raw)

Hello,

The following patch implements set_native_thread_name() for Linux, which was so far unimplemented. The name needs to be truncated to 15 chars, otherwise it would not be accepted by pthread_setname_np() at all.

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rkennke/linux_threadname/webrev.00/

This is my first patch to hotspot ever, so please let me know when I did anything fundamental wrong. I have another patch in the pipeline for implementing the other 2 missing methods in the same source file (distribute_processes() and bind_to_processor() ).

What do you think?

Kind regards, Roman
