> Is it correct that OpenMP uses a lot of POSIX threads barriers ? It uses a lot of barriers but these are not done using pthread_barrier_wait as that is too restrictive -- it uses its own implementation. As detailed in the README in the tarball I posted. So in fact, providing you follow the directions in the README, it is possible to successfully check programs compiled by gcc-4.2.3 using Helgrind. > that case I think you better verify the barrier implementation in > Helgrind first. Helgrind doesn't support pthread barriers right now, although that will change in future -- should be relatively straightforward.
