out-of-the-box.

e18b563821 implement [v]swprintf 2011-03-18 09:19:09 -04:00
c35bb6645f implement wprintf family of functions
this implementation is extremely ugly and inefficient, but it avoids a
good deal of code duplication and bloat. it may be cleaned up later to
eliminate the remaining code duplication and some of the warts, but i
don't really care about its performance.

note that swprintf is not yet implemented.

047e434ef5 implement robust mutexes
some of this code should be cleaned up, e.g. using macros for some of
the bit flags, masks, etc. nonetheless, the code is believed to be
working and correct at this point.

18c7ea8055 avoid function call to pthread_self in mutex unlock
if the mutex was previously locked, we can assume pthread_self was
already called at the time of locking, and thus that the thread
pointer is initialized.

93cc986ab3 reorder mutex struct fields to make room for pointers (upcoming robust mutexes)
the layout has been chosen so that pointer slots 3 and 4 fit between
the integer slots on 32-bit archs, and come after the integer slots on
64-bit archs.

b1c43161c2 unify lock and owner fields of mutex structure
this change is necessary to free up one slot in the mutex structure so
that we can use doubly-linked lists in the implementation of robust
mutexes.

d8d19f4d46 pthread.h needs clockid_t
actually it gets this from time.h if _POSIX_C_SOURCE or any other
feature test macros are defined, but it breaks if they're not.

243b542382 implement dummy pthread_attr_[gs]etschedparam functions
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.

cfe581b6bc fix some semaphore wait semantics (race condition deadlock and error checking) 2011-03-10 21:52:18 -05:00
81af503610 fix sem_open and sem_close to obey posix semantics
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.

5fcebcde6a optimize pthread termination in the non-detached case
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.
2011-03-10 18:31:37 -05:00
dc54a7cbb9 fix errors in sigqueue (potential information leak, wrong behavior)
1. any padding in the siginfo struct was not necessarily zero-filled,
so it might have contained private data off the caller's stack.

2. the uid and pid must be filled in from userspace. the previous
rsyscall fix broke rsyscalls because the values were always incorrect.

5b9429adb7 make sigtimedwait a cancellation point 2011-03-10 10:59:50 -05:00
0a949ebdf0 don't fail with EINTR in sigtimedwait
POSIX allows either behavior, but sigwait is not allowed to fail with
EINTR, so the retry loop would have to be in one or the other anyway.

1b538acb0a fix errno behavior in clock_* functions
these functions are specified inconsistent in whether they're
specified to return an error value, or return -1 and set errno.
hopefully now they all match what POSIX requires.

500c969f05 fix error handling for pthread_sigmask
it must return errno, not -1, and should reject invalud values for how.

3f5420bcda make fork properly initialize the main thread in the child process 2011-03-09 20:23:44 -05:00
6dc05fbe19 optimize pthread initialization
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.
2011-03-09 20:21:23 -05:00
0bed7e0acf fix race condition in raise - just mask signals
a signal handler could fork after the pid/tid were read, causing the
wrong process to be signalled. i'm not sure if this is supposed to
have UB or not, but raise is async-signal-safe, so it probably is
allowed. the current solution is slightly expensive so this
implementation is likely to be changed in the future.
