This is OK:
pthread_create(&thread, NULL, --omited--);
This will cause segmentation fault:
pthread_create(NULL, NULL, --omited--);
I’ve checked the manual it didn’t say that the first parameter can’t be NULL,is it a bug?
I’m on OSX.
The documentation says that “[u]pon successful completion, *pthread_create*() stores the ID of the created thread in the location referenced by thread.” Storing a thread ID into a NULL location will cause a segmentation fault.
