however, with the inline locks in malloc, skipping the lock +also eliminated the compiler barrier, and caused code that needed to +re-check chunk in-use bits after obtaining the lock to reuse a stale +value, possibly from before the process became single-threaded. this +in turn produced corruption of the heap state. + +some uses of libc.threads_minus_1 remain, especially for allocation of +new TLS in the dynamic linker; otherwise, it could be removed +entirely. it's made non-volatile to reflect that the remaining +accesses are only made under lock on the thread list. + +instead of libc.threads_minus_1, libc.threaded is now used for +skipping locks. the difference is that libc.threaded is permanently +true once an additional thread has been created. this will produce +some performance regression in processes that are mostly +single-threaded but occasionally creating threads. in the future it +may be possible to bring back the full lock-skipping, but more care +needs to be taken to produce a safe design. +--- + src/internal/libc.h | 2 +- + src/malloc/malloc.c | 2 +- + src/thread/__lock.c | 2 +- + 3 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) + +diff --git a/src/internal/libc.h b/src/internal/libc.h +index ac97dc7e..c0614852 100644 +--- a/src/internal/libc.h ++++ b/src/internal/libc.h +@@ -21,7 +21,7 @@ struct __libc { + int can_do_threads;
