STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com> added the comment:

It seems like the feature is only supported by a few operating systems and only 
if required functions are available:

#ifdef __APPLE__
    volatile uint64_t tid;
    pthread_threadid_np(NULL, &tid);
#elif defined(__linux__)
    volatile pid_t tid;
    tid = syscall(__NR_gettid);

I understand that it's not available on FreeBSD nor Windows?

In that case, I would prefer to only add a threading.get_tid() *function*.

Is it different than threading.get_ident() on Linux?
