previously, a waiter could miss the 1->0 transition of block if
another thread set block to 1 again after the signal function set
block to 0. we now use the caller's thread id as a unique token to
store in block, which no other thread will ever write there. this
ensures that if block still contains the tid, no signal has occurred.
spurious wakeups will of course occur whenever there is a spurious
return from the futex wait and another thread has begun waiting on the
cond var. this should be a rare occurrence except perhaps in the
presence of interrupting signal handlers.
signal/bcast operations have been improved by noting that they need
not avoid inspecting the cond var's memory after changing the futex
value. because the standard allows spurious wakeups, there is no way
for an application to distinguish between a spurious wakeup just
before another thread called signal/bcast, and the deliberate wakeup
resulting from the signal/bcast call. thus the woken thread must
assume that the signalling thread may still be waiting to act on the
cond var, and therefore it cannot destroy/unmap the cond var.

casting to int would not be correct because high bits could be lost.
mapping the high bits down onto low bits would be costlier in the
common case where the result is just used in a conditional. changing
the type of the bit array elements to int would permute the order of
the bit array on 64-bit big endian systems, so that's not an option
either.

actually this is just to avoid gcc being stupid and refusing to inline
the function version, even when the size cost is essentially identical
whether it's inlined or not.

it's amazing none of the conformance tests i've run even bothered to
check whether something so basic works...

if the file descriptor resource limit has been increased past
FD_SETSIZE, this is actually a security issue; we could write past the
end of the fd_set object. using poll makes it a non-issue, and
simplifies the code at the same time.
also, use clock_gettime instead of gettimeofday, for reduced bloat
and better entropy.

for now this is just a tiny optimization, but later if we support
cancellation from __stdio_read and __stdio_write, it will be necessary
for the recusrive lock count to be zero in order for these functions
to know they are responsible for unlocking the FILE on cancellation.

the arm syscall abi requires 64-bit arguments to be aligned on an even
register boundary. these new macros facilitate meeting the abi
requirement without imposing significant ugliness on the code.

this is a case of poorly written man pages not matching the actual
implementation, and why i hate implementing nonstandard interfaces
with no actual documentation of how they're intended to work.

this bug was introduced in a recent patch. the problem we're working
around is that broken GNU software wants to use "struct siginfo"
rather than "siginfo_t", but "siginfo" is not in the reserved
namespace and thus not legal for the standard header to use.
|
| |
|
|
|

at the same time, make struct statfs match the traditional definition
and make it more useful, especially the fsid_t stuff.

really wchar_t should never vary, but the ARM EABI defines it as an
unsigned 32-bit int instead of a signed one, and gcc follows this
nonsense. thus, to give a conformant environment, we have to follow
(otherwise L""[0] and L'\0' would be 0U rather than 0, but the
application would be unaware due to a mismatched definition for
WCHAR_MIN and WCHAR_MAX, and Bad Things could happen with respect to
signed/unsigned comparisons, promotions, etc.).
fortunately no rules are imposed by the C standard on the relationship
between wchar_t and wint_t, and WEOF has type wint_t, so we can still
make wint_t always-signed and use -1 for WEOF.

this was the cause of crashes in printf when attempting to print
floating point values.

this port assumes eabi calling conventions, eabi linux syscall
convention, and presence of the kernel helpers at 0xffff0f?0 needed
for threads support. otherwise it makes very few assumptions, and the
code should work even on armv4 without thumb support, as well as on
systems with thumb interworking. the bits headers declare this a
little endian system, but as far as i can tell the code should work
equally well on big endian.
some small details are probably broken; so far, testing has been
limited to qemu/aboriginal linux.

it does not work, but some configure scripts will falsely detect
support then generate programs that crash when they call dlopen.

several things are changed. first, i have removed the old __uniclone
function signature and replaced it with the "standard" linux
__clone/clone signature. this was necessary to expose clone to
applications anyway, and it makes it easier to port __clone to new
archs, since it's now testable independently of pthread_create.
secondly, i have removed all references to the ugly ldt descriptor
structure (i386 only) from the c code and pthread structure. in places
where it is needed, it is now created on the stack just when it's
needed, in assembly code. thus, the i386 __clone function takes the
desired thread pointer as its argument, rather than an ldt descriptor
pointer, just like on all other sane archs. this should not affect
applications since there is really no way an application can use clone
with threads/tls in a way that doesn't horribly conflict with and
clobber the underlying implementation's use. applications are expected
to use clone only for creating actual processes, possibly with new
namespace features and whatnot.

eventually we may have a working "generic" implementation for archs
that don't need anything special. in any case, the goal of having
stubs like this is to allow early testing of new ports before all the
details needed for threads have been filled in. more functions like
this will follow.

i blame this one on posix for using hideous const-qualified double
pointers which are unusable without hideous casts.

previous fix was backwards and propagated the wrong type rather than
the right one...
