That's because when such a primitive returns, the bytecode interpreter is only semi-obedient: it takes sp from the new thread, but keeps pc from the old thread. But that's OK if all calls to rescheduling primitives are immediately followed by a RETURN operation, which will restore the correct pc from the stack. Furthermore, the RETURNs must all have the same frame size, which means that both the primitives and their ML wrappers must take exactly one argument. *) external thread_initialize : unit -> unit = "thread_initialize" external thread_new : (unit -> unit) -> t = "thread_new" external thread_yield : unit -> unit = "thread_yield" external thread_sleep : unit -> unit = "thread_sleep" external thread_wait_read : Unix.file_descr -> unit = "thread_wait_read" external thread_wait_write : Unix.file_descr -> unit = "thread_wait_write" external thread_wait_timed_read : Unix.file_descr * float -> resumption_status (* remeber: 1 arg *) = "thread_wait_timed_read" external thread_wait_timed_write : Unix.file_descr * float -> resumption_status (* remeber: 1 arg *) = "thread_wait_timed_write" external thread_join : t -> unit = "thread_join" external thread_delay : float -> unit = "thread_delay" external thread_wait_pid : int -> resumption_status = "thread_wait_pid" external thread_wakeup : t -> unit = "thread_wakeup" external thread_self : unit -> t = "thread_self" external thread_kill : t -> unit = "thread_kill" external id : t -> int = "thread_id" (* In sleep() below, we rely on the fact that signals are detected only at function applications and beginning of loops, making all other operations atomic. *) let sleep () = critical_section := false; thread_sleep() let wait_read fd = thread_wait_read fd let wait_write fd = thread_wait_write fd let delay duration = thread_delay duration let join th = thread_join th let wakeup pid = thread_wakeup pid let self () = thread_self() let kill pid = thread_kill pid let exit () = thread_kill(thread_self()) let wait_timed_read_aux arg = thread_wait_timed_read arg let wait_timed_write_aux arg = thread_wait_timed_write arg let wait_pid_aux pid = thread_wait_pid pid let wait_timed_read fd d = wait_timed_read_aux (fd, d) = Resumed_io let wait_timed_write fd d = wait_timed_write_aux (fd, d) = Resumed_io let wait_pid pid = match wait_pid_aux pid with Resumed_wait(pid, status) -> (pid, status) | _ -> invalid_arg "Thread.wait_pid" (* For Thread.create, make sure the function passed to thread_new always terminates by calling Thread.exit. *) let create fn arg = thread_new (fun () -> try Printexc.print fn arg; exit() with x -> flush stdout; flush stderr; exit()) (* Preemption *) let preempt signal = if !critical_section then () else thread_yield() (* Initialization of the scheduler *) let _ = Sys.signal Sys.sigvtalrm (Sys.Signal_handle preempt); thread_initialize()
