OSELAS.Toolchain-2011.03.0: PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT undeclared for arm-1136jfs-linux-gcc


Hello,

in c++ the protocol PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT protocol for mutexes is available, but for c it is not available.
I've traced it up to features.h which declares __USE_UNIX98 for _XOPEN_SOURCE = 500. Once __USE_UNIX98 is set the protocols are available in pthread.h. How it is activated by c++, i don't know. It is confusing, because pthread_mutexattr_setprotocol() is declared but the protocols not.


simple example - reproduce on compile everytime:

/* test of problem PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT undeclared in pthread.h (only in gcc, cpp with g++ no problem) */
/* toolchain: OSELAS.Toolchain-2011.03.0/arm-1136jfs-linux-gnueabi/gcc-4.5.2-glibc-2.13-binutils-2.21-kernel-2.6.36-sanitized/bin/arm-1136jfs-linux-gnueabi-gcc */
/* linked libs: pthread */


#include <pthread.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  int iRet;
  pthread_mutexattr_t csAttr;

iRet = pthread_mutexattr_init(&csAttr);
if (iRet == 0)
iRet = pthread_mutexattr_settype(&csAttr, PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK);
if (iRet == 0)
iRet = pthread_mutexattr_setprotocol(&csAttr, PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT); // error: PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT undeclared


  pthread_mutexattr_destroy(&csAttr);
  return 0;
}

This example was build with the following configuration and output:
Building file: ../main.c
Invoking: GCC C Compiler
/opt/OSELAS.Toolchain-2011.03.0/arm-1136jfs-linux-gnueabi/gcc-4.5.2-glibc-2.13-binutils-2.21-kernel-2.6.36-sanitized/bin/arm-1136jfs-linux-gnueabi-gcc -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -MMD -MP -MF"main.d" -MT"main.d" -o"main.o" "../main.c"
../main.c: In function 'main':
../main.c:14:51: error: 'PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT' undeclared (first use in this function)
../main.c:14:51: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
make: *** [main.o] Error 1
make: Target `all' not remade because of errors.


Why this protocol is only for __USE_UNIX98 allowed? Is there a solution to use this protocol PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT with gcc?

Best regards!
