I know this is just about pthreads, but if someone is interested in the topic, Narain Gehani did a lot of work on concurrency in C in the 80s/90s timeframe[1].

I know this is just about pthreads, but if someone is interested in the topic, Narain Gehani did a lot of work on concurrency in C in the 80s/90s timeframe[1]. Even had a compiler for a language called Concurrent C[2] that didn't gain any traction.
