I have Python program running under Linux, that create several
threads, and I want to now the corresponding PID of the threads.
In each of the threads I have
def run(self):
pid = os.getpid()
logger.critical('process ID: %s', pid)
However, the reported PID is the father number, not the PID of the new
thread. Is there a way to get the PID of the thread?
Using "pid" for a thread identifier is confusing; I'd call it tid instead.
(getpid() used to return a thread id in old Linux kernels, but that was a
mess).
Try using Thread.ident (requires Python 2.6). I'd expect it to return
gettid() but I've not checked it; from the docs, it might be a synthesized
number as well.

In case it doesn't work, you can use ctypes to perform a gettid syscall.
