91 /* Note about ThreadInfo tid and tnr in various parts of _Addrinfo:
92 A tid is an index in the VG_(threads)[] array. The entries
93 in VG_(threads) array are re-used, so the tid in an 'old' _Addrinfo
94 might be misleading: if the thread that was using tid has been terminated
95 and the tid was re-used by another thread, the tid will very probably
96 be wrongly interpreted by the user.
97 So, such an _Addrinfo should be printed just after it has been produced,
98 before the tid could possibly be re-used by another thread.
100 A tool such as helgrind is uniquely/unambiguously identifying each thread
101 by a number. If the tool sets tnr between the call to
102 VG_(describe_addr) and the call to VG_(pp_addrinfo), then VG_(pp_addrinfo)
103 will by preference print tnr instead of tid.
104 Visually, a tid will be printed as thread %d
105 while a tnr will be printed as thread #%d
