Not just preemptive multitasking between processes, but
kernel-scheduled threads within each process as well.
Not a novel idea, but the one that eventually won over all others.
In 1993 it was already obvious that it is going to win, but in
1988-1989, when development started, it was less trivial.

Just an old idea from OS/360 MVT circa 1965-66. OS calls them tasks.

The thread design for SVR4 Unix started in the late 80s and
released in 1993.

Digital published "Evolving the UNIX System Interface to
Support Multithreaded Programs" September 28, 1987.
(Paul R. McJones and Garret F. Swart).

The "The Topaz Operating System User's Guide" in that document
describes the thread interface. (DIGITAL Systems Research
Center operating system) for both VAX/Ultrix and the Firefly/Taos
implementation.

Here's a link to the paper published a couple years later:

https://softwarepreservation.computerhistory.org/modula2+/doc/McJones_Swart-Evolving-1989.pdf

And here's a link to the full technical report #21 (including the manual)

Speaking of.... I have a distinct memory of reading a paper
called something like, "fork mixed with threads considered
harmful"; I could have sworn it was by Luca Cardelli, but I do
not think that is correct, nor can I find it....  At least the
Gatekeeper archive of SRC reports was mirrored.  Maybe it's in
there (it's not the evolving paper, though that touches on the
issues).

Implementing threads is trivial compared to implementing multi processes with
shared memory. Adding them to a pre-existing kernel might be tricky but when 
you're building one from scratch as per NT then its hardly a big deal.

Multi process with shared memory can be tricky indeed. Step one, you 
need to ponder on making it "robust". Threads do not need to be robust. 
Well, you should not have a thread up and die anyway. Now, for multi 
process, that should be handled. There are many different ways.

Wasn't that work done in preparation for the C++11 standard?  I did not
keep track of the standard's discussion, but presumably Microsoft had
people both on the C++ standard's committee, and the Vista programming
team.

No one is suggesting that the threads themselves are implemented in 
pure, standard, portable C++.  You need an underlying OS or support of 
some sort if you are going to have preemptable threads.  It's the same 
principle as IO and file access.

But the difference between threads and processes is very simple from the 
viewpoint of C and C++.  Suppose you have a global (i.e., external 
linkage) variable :

	int x;

Two threads that have "int a = x;" see the same "x" (ignoring data races 
and synchronisation).  Two processes see completely different "x".

With threads, you are still within the same program execution - the same 
code, the same data.  Thus it is appropriate that the language can 
describe the threads, and provide an execution model that can describe 
what is safe and unsafe for sharing the data.  It is then highly useful 
for the programmer to have some standard data types and functions for 
doing this safe access, and wrappers around common OS functions for threads.

With processes, you have two separate programs.  Usually it is different 
code and data (with a spawn), sometimes it is the same code and a copy 
of the data (with a fork).  But the programs are separate.  C and C++ 
model programs, not systems of programs.  It is not more part of C and 
C++ than details of the filesystem.

Of course the standard library could provide some standard wrappers for 
spawn, fork, and related process control functions.  But what use would 
they be?  Many of the details are OS-specific - for example, you'd 
either have to say that C++ programmers on Linux don't get "fork", or 
that C++ programmers on Windows get "fork" without realising the massive 
overheads involved in emulating it.

It would be possible, of course, to have some standard library classes 
and functions here - with optional parts to make it useable on common 
OS'es.  But it is very different from threading, which is integral to 
the execution model of C++ and C (since C++11 and C11) - it is that 
model that makes threading integration important.  Wrappers around 
common OS calls is unlikely to give programmers anything significant.

That's more realistic, and potentially more useful.  And it is in 
progress.  (I haven't tracked the progress for the networking TS - but 
it seems to be a lot more work than originally anticipated.)

Bingo. So, trying to imply that system is something okay for multi 
process, well, good luck. Daft. C/C++ has no std way to deal with multi 
process. But, we can use C/C++ to program for it all day long. Interesting.

There are, of course, languages and runtime systems that handle 
processes too.  An obvious example is Python.  But it does it using a 
significantly "thicker" abstraction layer, combined with a significant 
run-time system to manage it all.  And as a programmer, you have to be 
aware that you can't access global data from different processes, in the 
way you can do from different threads - you can only use data that is 
explicitly shared, or of appropriate data structures (like the 
process-aware queues).  Behind the scenes, there is a lot of work to 
pass and synchronise all this using named pipes, memmapped shared files, 
etc.  While C++ programmers are used to there being a certain degree of 
"hidden work" (unlike in C, where work is much more explicit), this kind 
of thing is not at all a match for the C++ philosophy.

And there are languages like Erlang that divide everything into 
micro-processes, and use the same mechanisms for controlling and passing 
data around regardless of whether this little processes are in the same 
thread, or different threads, different OS processes, or different 
computers.  That works because there are very narrow and tightly 
controlled mechanisms for sharing data.

Note that these are both languages that run on a VM, not compiled languages.

What you wrote about Erlang resembles MPI, which of course is readily
available for many compiled or jitted languages, including Fortran, C
and C++.
I tried to utilize MPI 20 years ago, but the thinking behind it is to
different from mine, so I ran away in horror.

Erlang uses the "actor" model to represent concurrency; state is
held by each actor, and actors communicate via message passing,
potentially changing state in response to messages.  This is a
model for _concurrency_, in which multiple independent threads
of execution are coordinated to some in a single system.

One may think of MPI-style systems this way, but there's a
subtle distinction.  The typical use case for something like MPI
is _parallel_ computation of a numerically intensive problem,
where "neighbors" nodes need to occasionally share state; this
is usually about _parallelism_; that is, simultaneity.  While a
concurrency primitive is _necessary_ to think about parallelism
(and MPI can be used in that fashion), the two are distinct
concepts that are often conflated.  To paraphrase Rob Pike on
it, concurrency is about dealing with multiple things at once,
while parallelism is about doing lots of things at the same
time.

Chorus (the microkernel) worked in a similar fashion.   The
microkernel coordinated between actors using message passing.

The actors implemented the higher level operating system
functionality.   The Amadeus project, for example, implemented
a version of unix on top of the microkernel using message
passing between actors (The Object manager handled files and
filesystems, the Process actor handled the POSIX process
and thread (SVR4.2ES/MP threads) interfaces including fork,
and light-weight processes that implemented threads, and
the Streams actor provide system V streams support and
networking.

Unisys released the OS as part of their massively parallel
OPUS computer system.

There are many ways to handle proper sync in multiprocess systems. Indeed.

For which we, thankfully, have POSIX on most non-windows operating

POSIC, bow down, even way before C11. It still can be used, and is very 
nice.

Who mentioned C? I was talking about C++ which has a threading API already.

In that regard, C and C++ are very similar.
Similar primitives modeled mostly on Posix threads were added to both
languages at approximately the same time.

The difference is not in this specific case, but in generally more
conservative attitude of C committee relatively to its C++ counterpart
w.r.t. extending Standard library.
