1.线程同步的概念
线程同步是指在多线程编程中，为了保证多个线程按照某种特定的方式正确、有序地执行，需要进行线程间的协作与同步。在多线程编程中，当多个线程共享同一份资源时，由于线程的执行顺序是不确定的，因此会存在一些并发问题，如死锁、竞态条件、资源争用等问题。为了避免这些问题，需要对线程进行同步。线程同步实际上就是通过线程之间的协作，使得线程能够按照一定的顺序来访问共享资源，从而避免并发问题的发生。常用的线程同步机制有互斥锁、信号量、条件变量等。
2.线程不同步可能会发生什么
线程不同步可能会导致以下问题：
1. 竞态条件（Race Condition）：多个线程同时访问、修改一份共享资源，可能会导致资源的状态不确定，进而导致程序出现逻辑错误，甚至崩溃。
2. 死锁（Deadlock）：多个线程在等待对方释放锁，导致所有线程都无法继续执行，程序陷入死循环，最终可能会崩溃。
3. 饥饿（Starvation）：某些线程可能因为无法获取资源而一直等待，导致无法正常执行，进而影响整个程序的性能。
4. 资源争用（Resource Contention）：多个线程同时竞争同一份资源，导致资源的使用效率下降，总体性能降低。
示例：两个线程交替数数（每个线程数 50 个数，交替数到 100）
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#define MAX 50
// 全局变量
int number;
// 线程处理函数
void* funcA_num(void* arg)
{
for(int i=0; i<MAX; ++i)
{
int cur = number;
cur++;
usleep(10);
number = cur;
printf("Thread A, id = %lu, number = %d\n", pthread_self(), number);
}
return NULL;
}
void* funcB_num(void* arg)
{
for(int i=0; i<MAX; ++i)
{
int cur = number;
cur++;
number = cur;
printf("Thread B, id = %lu, number = %d\n", pthread_self(), number);
usleep(5);
}
return NULL;
}
int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
pthread_t p1, p2;
// 创建两个子线程
pthread_create(&p1, NULL, funcA_num, NULL);
pthread_create(&p2, NULL, funcB_num, NULL);
// 阻塞，资源回收
pthread_join(p1, NULL);
pthread_join(p2, NULL);
return 0;
}

通过对上面例子的测试，可以看出虽然每个线程内部循环了 50 次每次数一个数，但是最终没有数到 100，通过输出的结果可以看到，有些数字被重复数了多次，其原因就是没有对线程进行同步处理，造成了数据的混乱。
3.线程同步方式
线程同步方式有以下几种：
1. 互斥锁（Mutex）：使用互斥锁来控制多个线程对共享资源的访问。只有获得锁的线程才能进入临界区进行操作，其他线程必须等待锁释放后才能进入。
2. 读写锁（Read-Write Lock）：允许多个线程同时读取共享资源，但只允许一个线程写入共享资源。读写锁可以提高程序的并发性能，减少资源争用问题。
3. 条件变量（Condition Variable）：用于等待特定条件的发生。当某个线程等待某个条件变量时，它会被阻塞，直到其他线程发出信号，通知条件变量已经满足。
4. 信号量（Semaphore）：使用信号量来控制多个线程对有限数量资源的访问。信号量表示资源的数量，每个线程在使用完资源后必须释放信号量，以便其他线程可以使用资源。
以上是常见的几种线程同步方式，每种方式都有其适用的场景和优缺点，根据具体的应用场景选择适合的同步方式是非常重要的，这里先介绍互斥锁。
4.互斥锁
互斥锁是线程同步最常用的一种方式，通过互斥锁可以锁定一个代码块，被锁定的这个代码块，所有的线程只能顺序执行 (不能并行处理)，这样多线程访问共享资源数据混乱的问题就可以被解决了，需要付出的代价就是执行效率的降低，因为默认临界区多个线程是可以并行处理的，现在只能串行处理。
在 Linux 中互斥锁的类型为 pthread_mutex_t，创建一个这种类型的变量就得到了一把互斥锁：
pthread_mutex_t mutex;在创建的锁对象中保存了当前这把锁的状态信息：锁定还是打开，如果是锁定状态还记录了给这把锁加锁的线程信息（线程 ID）。一个互斥锁变量只能被一个线程锁定，被锁定之后其他线程再对互斥锁变量加锁就会被阻塞，直到这把互斥锁被解锁，被阻塞的线程才能被解除阻塞。一般情况下，每一个共享资源对应一个把互斥锁，锁的个数和线程的个数无关。
Linux 提供的互斥锁操作函数如下，如果函数调用成功会返回 0，调用失败会返回相应的错误号：
// 初始化互斥锁
// restrict: 是一个关键字, 用来修饰指针, 只有这个关键字修饰的指针可以访问指向的内存地址, 其他指针是不行的
int pthread_mutex_init(pthread_mutex_t *restrict mutex,
const pthread_mutexattr_t *restrict attr);
// 释放互斥锁资源
int pthread_mutex_destroy(pthread_mutex_t *mutex);
//mutex: 互斥锁变量的地址
//attr: 互斥锁的属性，一般使用默认属性即可，这个参数指定为 NULL
申请一个互斥锁
修改互斥锁的状态, 将其设定为锁定状态, 这个状态被写入到参数 mutex 中
int pthread_mutex_lock(pthread_mutex_t *mutex);这个函数被调用，首先会判断参数 mutex 互斥锁中的状态是不是锁定状态:
没有被锁定，是打开的，这个线程可以加锁成功，这个这个锁中会记录是哪个线程加锁成功
如果被锁定了，其他线程加锁就失败了，这些线程都会阻塞在这把锁上
当这把锁被解开之后，这些阻塞在锁上的线程就解除阻塞了，并且这些线程是通过竞争的方式对这把锁加锁，没抢到锁的线程继续阻塞
尝试获取互斥锁
下面这个函数是尝试获取一个互斥锁。如果当前的锁没有被其他线程占用，则该函数会立即返回，线程成功获取锁，并返回0。否则，该函数会立即返回，线程不会阻塞，直接返回EBUSY错误码。
// 尝试加锁
int pthread_mutex_trylock(pthread_mutex_t *mutex); 使用pthread_mutex_trylock函数获取锁的好处是，在获取锁的过程中不会引起线程阻塞，避免了由于长时间阻塞而导致的程序性能下降或死锁问题。但是，需要注意的是，在使用pthread_mutex_trylock函数时，如果获取锁失败，则需要有相应的处理措施来处理获取锁失败的情况。
互斥锁解锁
通过调用pthread_mutex_unlock()函数将占用的互斥锁释放，以便其他线程可以竞争和访问共享资源。如果未正确解锁互斥锁，则可能会导致死锁或其他线程无法访问共享资源。因此，正确使用互斥锁是确保多线程代码正确运行的关键之一。
// 对互斥锁解锁
int pthread_mutex_unlock(pthread_mutex_t *mutex);我们可以将上面多线程交替数数的例子修改一下，使用互斥锁进行线程同步。两个线程一共操作了同一个全局变量，因此需要添加一互斥锁，来控制这两个线程。
互斥锁示例：
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#define MAX 100
// 全局变量
int number;
// 创建一把互斥锁
// 全局变量, 多个线程共享
pthread_mutex_t mutex;
// 线程处理函数
void* funcA_num(void* arg)
{
for(int i=0; i<MAX; ++i)
{
// 如果线程A加锁成功, 不阻塞
// 如果B加锁成功, 线程A阻塞
pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex);
int cur = number;
cur++;
usleep(10);
number = cur;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);
printf("Thread A, id = %lu, number = %d\n", pthread_self(), number);
}
return NULL;
}
void* funcB_num(void* arg)
{
for(int i=0; i<MAX; ++i)
{
// a加锁成功, b线程访问这把锁的时候是锁定的
// 线程B先阻塞, a线程解锁之后阻塞解除
// 线程B加锁成功了
pthread_mutex_lock(&mutex);
int cur = number;
cur++;
number = cur;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&mutex);
printf("Thread B, id = %lu, number = %d\n", pthread_self(), number);
usleep(5);
}
return NULL;
}
int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
pthread_t p1, p2;
// 初始化互斥锁
pthread_mutex_init(&mutex, NULL);
// 创建两个子线程
pthread_create(&p1, NULL, funcA_num, NULL);
pthread_create(&p2, NULL, funcB_num, NULL);
// 阻塞，资源回收
pthread_join(p1, NULL);
pthread_join(p2, NULL);
// 销毁互斥锁
// 线程销毁之后, 再去释放互斥锁
pthread_mutex_destroy(&mutex);
return 0;
}
