Compute-intensive tasks can be offloaded from the main emulation flow with **threads**. Unless otherwise stated, all structures, functions and constants in this page are provided by ``86box/plat.h``.
.. warning:: 86Box API functions (excluding those in this page) are generally **not thread-safe** and must be called from the **main emulation thread**. Thread-unsafe actions (like raising an interrupt) can be performed by the callback of a free-running :doc:`timer <timer>` which looks for data written to the device's :ref:`state structure <dev/api/device:State structure>` by a thread, as timers run on the main emulation thread.
