Hello,

I'm simply curious about the absence of a pthread getter method
(phtread_getname_np) in musl, since it seems the setter method
(pthread_setname_np) has been around for a while. This only came up because
of a reference to this method in a NodeJS library that uses some cpp
bindings (when using an Alpine image for running Node).

Here's a relevant Github link regarding the matter, for what it's worth:
https://github.com/RuntimeTools/omr-agentcore/issues/90

Thanks in advance for your time.

Robert Oliveira

It's come up before, and there were reasons for not doing it, but not
terribly compelling ones. I promised to look at it again this release
cycle and I suspect that'll end with it getting added.
