Those are native threads calls. LinuxThreads is a pthreads
(POSIX 1003.1c) implementation. I don't know much about green
threads at all except it is not a pthreads implementation.
So, to answer your question, under native threads only. Green
threads most likely provides similar functionality, but with a
different API.
