| 1.8 | 13-Nov-2007 |
ad | For PR bin/37347:
- Override __libc_thr_init() instead of using our own constructor.
- Add pthread__getenv() and use instead of getenv(). This is used before
we are up and running and unfortunatley getenv() takes locks.
Other changes:
- Cache the spinlock vectors in pthread__st. Internal spinlock operations
now take 1 function call instead of 3 (i386).
- Use pthread__self() internally, not pthread_self().
- Use __attribute__ ((visibility("hidden"))) in some places.
- Kill PTHREAD_MAIN_DEBUG.

ad | Fix a dodgy bit of assembly.
|
| 1.6 | 07-Sep-2007 |
ad | - Don't take the mutex's spinlock (ptr_interlock) in pthread_cond_wait().
Instead, make the deferred wakeup list a per-thread array and pass down
the lwpid_t's that way.
- In pthread_cond_wait(), take the mutex before dealing with early wakeup.
In this way there should never be contention on the CV's spinlock if
the app follows POSIX rules (there should only be contention on the
user-provided mutex).
- Add a port of the kernel's rwlocks. The rwlock's spinlock is only taken if
there is contention. This is enabled where atomic ops are available. Right
now that is only i386 and amd64 because I don't have other hardware to
test with. It's trivial to add stubs for other architectures as long as
they have compare-and-swap. When we have proper atomic ops the old rwlock
code can be removed.
- Add a new mutex implementation that's similar to the kernel's mutexes, but
uses compare-and-swap to maintain the waiters list, so no spinlocks are
involved. Same caveats apply as for the rwlocks.

riastradh | libpthread: New pthread__smt_wait to put CPU in low power for spin.
This is now distinct from pthread__smt_pause, which is for spin lock
backoff with no paired wakeup.
On Arm, there is a single-bit event register per CPU, and there are two
instructions to manage it:
- wfe, wait for event -- if event register is clear, enter low power
mode and wait until event register is set; then exit low power mode
and clear event register
- sev, signal event -- sets event register on all CPUs (other
circumstances like interrupts also set the event register and cause
wfe to wake)
These can be used to reduce the power consumption of spinning for a
lock, but only if they are actually paired -- if there's no sev, wfe
might hang indefinitely. Currently only pthread_spin(3) actually
pairs them; the other lock primitives (internal lock, mutex, rwlock)
do not -- they have spin lock backoff loops, but no corresponding
wakeup to cancel a wfe.
It may be worthwhile to teach the other lock primitives to pair
wfe/sev, but that requires some performance measurement to verify
it's actually worthwhile. So for now, we just make sure not to use
wfe when there's no sev, and keep everything else the same -- this
should fix severe performance degredation in libpthread on Arm
without hurting anything else.
No change in the generated code on amd64 and i386. No change in the
generated code for pthread_spin.c on arm and aarch64 -- changes only
the generated code for pthread_lock.c, pthread_mutex.c, and
pthread_rwlock.c, as intended.

skrll | Resurrect the function pointers for lock operations and allow each
architecture to provide asm versions of the RAS operations.
We do this because relying on the compiler to get the RAS right is not
sensible. (It gets alpha wrong and hppa is suboptimal)
Provide asm RAS ops for hppa.

and use it preferentially to a value in pt_uc, clearing it once on the new

after the stack switch opened a one-instruction race condition where an upcall
that had just started a chain could be preempted again, and would bomb when
restarted due to its pt_uc not yet having been updated. Now that pt_trapuc
is what the upcall code writes to, it is safe to store to pt_uc before
switching stacks.
