From d213ff44f338f3bcd7413a3a1f3d0a1ab7a134e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: emaste Date: Fri, 15 Jul 2011 01:50:40 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Remove note that claims pthread_set_name_np is for debugging only. As Garrett points out, It is no more a debugging interface than setproctitle(3), and has not been since the name started getting stuffed into the kernel. This statement may have made sense when the name was only visible in thread state dumps and the debugger.
