2011-03-12implement flockfile api, rework stdio lockingRich Felker1-0/+1
2011-03-11implement dummy pthread_attr_[gs]etschedparam functionsRich Felker2-0/+14
for some reason these functions are not shaded by the PS/TPS option in POSIX, so presumably they are mandatory, even though the functionality they offer is optional. for now, provide them in case any programs depend on their existence, but disallow any priority except the default.
2011-03-11fix pthread_attr_* implementations to match corrected prototypesRich Felker4-4/+4
2011-03-10fix failure behavior of sem_open when sem does not existRich Felker1-1/+5
2011-03-10fix some semaphore wait semantics (race condition deadlock and error checking)Rich Felker2-1/+7
2011-03-10fix sem_open and sem_close to obey posix semanticsRich Felker2-33/+80
multiple opens of the same named semaphore must return the same pointer, and only the last close can unmap it. thus the ugly global state keeping track of mappings. the maximum number of distinct named semaphores that can be opened is limited sufficiently small that the linear searches take trivial time, especially compared to the syscall overhead of these functions.
2011-03-10optimize pthread termination in the non-detached caseRich Felker1-4/+15
we can avoid blocking signals by simply using a flag to mark that the thread has exited and prevent it from getting counted in the rsyscall signal-pingpong. this restores the original pthread create/join throughput from before the sigprocmask call was added.
2011-03-10security fix: check that cancel/rsyscall signal was sent by the process itselfRich Felker1-0/+3
2011-03-09fix error handling for pthread_sigmaskRich Felker1-0/+10
it must return errno, not -1, and should reject invalud values for how.
2011-03-09optimize pthread initializationRich Felker1-2/+2
the set_tid_address returns the tid (which is also the pid when called from the initial thread) so there is no need to make a separate syscall to get pid/tid.
2011-03-08simplify and optimize pthread_mutex_trylockRich Felker1-17/+16
2011-03-08rwlock trylock functions were wrongly returning EAGAIN instead of EBUSYRich Felker2-3/+3
2011-03-08fix major breakage in pthread_once (it was always deadlocking)Rich Felker1-8/+7
the issue was a break statement that was breaking only from the switch, not the enclosing for loop, and a failure to set the final success state.
2011-03-08fix and optimize non-default-type mutex behaviorRich Felker3-25/+18
problem 1: mutex type from the attribute was being ignored by pthread_mutex_init, so recursive/errorchecking mutexes were never being used at all. problem 2: ownership of recursive mutexes was not being enforced at unlock time.
2011-03-08implement pthread_mutexattr_[gs]etpshared functionsRich Felker2-0/+16
2011-03-08disallow cpu time clocks as condattr clock valuesRich Felker1-1/+1
2011-03-07fix off-by-one error in sem_(timed)wait (using old sem value instead of new)Rich Felker1-1/+1
2011-03-07use the selected clock from the condattr for pthread_cond_timedwaitRich Felker2-1/+2
2011-03-07implement pthread_rwlockattr_* (essentially no-ops)Rich Felker4-0/+28
2011-03-07implement pthread_condattr_* interfacesRich Felker6-0/+45
note that, while the attributes are stored, they are not used in pthread_cond_init yet.
2011-03-07reject invalid attribute settingsRich Felker2-0/+2
note that this is a pedantic conformance issue and waste of code. it only affects broken code or code that is probing for conformance.
2011-03-07implement barrier attribute functions (essentially no-ops)Rich Felker4-0/+27
2011-03-04enforce stack size min in pthread_attr_setstacksizeRich Felker1-1/+1

2011-02-19use rt_sigprocmask, not legacy sigprocmask, syscall in pthread exit codeRich Felker1-1/+1
2011-02-19race condition fix: block all signals before decrementing thread countRich Felker3-22/+2
the existence of a (kernelspace) thread must never have observable effects after the thread count is decremented. if signals are not blocked, it could end up handling the signal for rsyscall and contributing towards the count of threads which have changed ids, causing a thread to be missed. this could lead to one thread retaining unwanted privilege level. this change may also address other subtle race conditions in application code that uses signals.
2011-02-19make pthread_exit run dtors for last thread, wait to decrement thread countRich Felker1-3/+3
2011-02-18add pthread_atfork interfaceRich Felker1-0/+48
note that this presently does not handle consistency of the libc's own global state during forking. as per POSIX 2008, if the parent process was threaded, the child process may only call async-signal-safe functions until one of the exec-family functions is called, so the current behavior is believed to be conformant even if non-ideal. it may be improved at some later time.
2011-02-17reorganize pthread data structures and move the definitions to alltypes.hRich Felker23-83/+83
this allows sys/types.h to provide the pthread types, as required by POSIX. this design also facilitates forcing ABI-compatible sizes in the arch-specific alltypes.h, while eliminating the need for developers changing the internals of the pthread types to poke around with arch-specific headers they may not be able to test.
2011-02-16patch by njk, simplifies thread register initialization for x86_64Rich Felker1-4/+0
It's not necessary to save any registers on the stack across syscall in x86_64 __set_thread_area. Don't waste cycles or bytes on it.
2011-02-16patch from njk: make x86_64 __uniclone branchless.Rich Felker1-6/+6
