clone() essentially creates the equivalent of a thread. It should be
possible to implement similar semantics using POSIX threads.

Chances are the following will work:

#include <pthread.h>

/*...*/

pthread_t read_thread;

/*...*/

err = pthread_create(&read_thread, NULL, lis_read_thread, (void *)
drvthis);

/*...*/

Note that this may need additional linker flags to link against
libpthread.
