* Add and use new glibc-internal futex API.Torvald Riegel2015-07-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds new functions for futex operations, starting with wait, abstimed_wait, reltimed_wait, wake. They add documentation and error checking according to the current draft of the Linux kernel futex manpage. Waiting with absolute or relative timeouts is split into separate functions. This allows for removing a few cases of code duplication in pthreads code, which uses absolute timeouts; also, it allows us to put platform-specific code to go from an absolute to a relative timeout into the platform-specific futex abstractions.. Futex operations that can be canceled are also split out into separate functions suffixed by "_cancelable". There are separate versions for both Linux and NaCl; while they currently differ only slightly, my expectation is that the separate versions of lowlevellock-futex.h will eventually be merged into futex-internal.h when we get to move the lll_ functions over to the new futex API.
* Fix semaphore destruction (bug 12674).Carlos O'Donell2015-01-211-66/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit fixes semaphore destruction by either using 64b atomic operations (where available), or by using two separate fields when only 32b atomic operations are available. In the latter case, we keep a conservative estimate of whether there are any waiting threads in one bit of the field that counts the number of available tokens, thus allowing sem_post to atomically both add a token and determine whether it needs to call futex_wake.
