From: "Zhu, Tao" <taox....@intel.com> When the thread exits normally, pthread_join() is not called, which can result in a resource leak. Therefore, the thread is set to separation mode using function pthread_detach(), so that no program call pthread_join() is required to recycle, and when the thread exits, the system automatically reclaims resources.
