'RELENG_6_0_0_RELEASE'.

This commit was manufactured to restore the state of the 6.0-RELEASE image.

Use a generic way to back threads out of wait queues when handling

2004-12-18T18:07:37+00:00

signals instead of having more intricate knowledge of thread state
within signal handling.

Simplify signal code because of above (by David Xu).

Use macros for libpthread usage of pthread_cleanup_push() and
pthread_cleanup_pop().  This removes some instances of malloc()
and free() from the semaphore and pthread_once() implementations.

When single threaded and forking(), make sure that the current
thread's signal mask is inherited by the forked thread.

Use private mutexes for libc and libpthread.  Signals are
deferred while threads hold private mutexes.  This fix also
breaks www/linuxpluginwrapper; a patch that fixes it is at
http://people.freebsd.org/~deischen/kse/linuxpluginwrapper.diff

Fix race condition in condition variables where handling a
signal (pthread_kill() or kill()) may not see a wakeup
(pthread_cond_signal() or pthread_cond_broadcast()).

Don't declare the malloc lock; use the declaration provided in libc.

Add an implementation for pthread_atfork().

2003-11-04T20:04:45+00:00

Aside from the POSIX requirements for pthread_atfork(), when
fork()ing, take the malloc lock to keep malloc state consistent
in the child.

If thread mode is not activated yet, just call __sys_fork() directly,

otherwise masks all signals until fork() returns, in child process,
we reset library state before restoring signal masks until we reach
a safe to point.

Revamp libpthread so that it has a chance of working in an SMP

environment.  This includes support for multiple KSEs and KSEGs.

The ability to create more than 1 KSE via pthread_setconcurrency()
is in the works as well as support for PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEM threads.
Those should come shortly.

There are still some known issues which davidxu and I are working
on, but it'll make it easier for us by committing what we have.

This library now passes all of the ACE tests that libc_r passes
with the exception of one.  It also seems to work OK with KDE
including konqueror, kwrite, etc.  I haven't been able to get
mozilla to run due to lack of java plugin, so I'd be interested
to see how it works with that.
