The effect of this is to save one handle per association, - which could potentially equal the number of keys multiplied by the - number of threads, accumulating over time - and to free the - association memory as soon as it is no longer referenced by either - the key or the thread. Previously, the handle and memory were - released only after BOTH key and thread no longer referenced the - association. That is, often no association resources were released - until the process itself exited. In addition, at least one race - condition has been removed - where two threads could attempt to - release the association resources simultaneously - one via - ptw32_callUserDestroyRoutines and the other via - pthread_key_delete. - - thanks to Richard Hughes at Aculab for discovering the problem. - * pthread_key_create.c: See above. - * pthread_key_delete.c: See above. - * pthread_setspecific.c: See above. - * ptw32_callUserDestroyRoutines.c: See above. - * ptw32_tkAssocCreate.c: See above. - * ptw32_tkAssocDestroy.c: See above. - -2005-04-27 Ross Johnson <ross at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * sem_wait.c (ptw32_sem_wait_cleanup): after cancellation re-attempt - to acquire the semaphore to avoid a race with a late sem_post. - * sem_timedwait.c: Modify comments. - -2005-04-25 Ross Johnson <ross at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * ptw32_relmillisecs.c: New module; converts future abstime to - milliseconds relative to 'now'. - * pthread_mutex_timedlock.c: Use new ptw32_relmillisecs routine in - place of internal code; remove the NEED_SEM code - this routine is now - implemented for builds that define NEED_SEM (WinCE etc) - * sem_timedwait.c: Likewise; after timeout or cancellation, - re-attempt to acquire the semaphore in case one has been posted since - the timeout/cancel occurred.

See URL for details:- - http://sources.redhat.com/ml/pthreads-win32/2005/msg00029.html - This uses late initialisation similar to the technique already used for - pthreads-win32 mutexes and semaphores (from Alexander Terekhov). - - The subsequent cancelation cleanup additions (by rpj) could not be implemented - without sacrificing some of the efficiency in Gottlob's design. In particular, - although each once_control uses it's own event to block on, a global CS is - required to manage it - since the event must be either re-usable or - re-creatable under cancelation. This is not needed in the non-cancelable - design because it is able to mark the event as closed (forever). - - When uncontested, a CS operation is equivalent to an Interlocked operation - in speed. So, in the final design with cancelability, an uncontested - once_control operation involves a minimum of five interlocked operations - (including the LeaveCS operation). - - ALTERNATIVES: - An alternative design from Alexander Terekhov proposed using a named mutex, - as sketched below:- - - if (!once_control) { // May be in TLS - named_mutex::guard guard(&once_control2); - if (!once_control2) { - <init> - once_control2 = true; - } - once_control = true; - } - - A more detailed description of this can be found here:- - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/message/15442 - - [Although the definition of a suitable PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT precludes use of the - TLS located flag, this is not critical.] - - There are three primary concerns though:- - 1) The [named] mutex is 'created' even in the uncontended case. - 2) A system wide unique name must be generated. - 3) Win32 mutexes are VERY slow even in the uncontended case. An uncontested - Win32 mutex lock operation can be 50 (or more) times slower than an - uncontested EnterCS operation. - - Ultimately, the named mutex trick is making use of the global locks maintained - by the kernel. - - * pthread.h (pthread_once_t_): One flag and an event HANDLE added. - (PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT): Additional values included. - -2005-03-08 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * pthread_once.c (pthread_once): Redesigned to elliminate potential - starvation problem. - - reported by Gottlob Frege <gottlobfrege at gmail.com> - - * ptw32_threadDestroy.c (ptw32_threadDestroy): Implicit threads were - not closing their Win32 thread duplicate handle. - - reported by Dmitrii Semii <bogolt at gmail.com> - -2005-01-25 Ralf Kubis <RKubis at mc.com> - - * Attempted acquisition of recursive mutex was causing waiting - threads to not be woken when the mutex is released. - - * GNUmakefile (GCE): Generate correct version resource comments. - -2005-01-01 Konstantin Voronkov <beowinkle at yahoo.com> - - * pthread_mutex_lock.c (pthread_mutex_lock): The new atomic exchange - mutex algorithm is known to allow a thread to steal the lock off - FIFO waiting threads. The next waiting FIFO thread gets a spurious - wake-up and must attempt to re-acquire the lock. The woken thread - was setting itself as the mutex's owner before the re-acquisition. - -2004-11-22 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * pthread_cond_wait.c (ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup): Undo change - from 2004-11-02. - * Makefile (DLL_VER): Added for DLL naming suffix - see README. - * GNUmakefile (DLL_VER): Likewise. - * Wmakefile (DLL_VER): Likewise. - * Bmakefile (DLL_VER): Likewise. - * pthread.dsw (version.rc): Added to MSVS workspace. - -2004-11-20 Boudewijn Dekker <b.dekker at ellipsis.nl> - - * pthread_getspecific.c (pthread_getspecific): Check for - invalid (NULL) key argument. - -2004-11-19 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * config.h (PTW32_THREAD_ID_REUSE_INCREMENT): Added to allow - building the library for either unique thread IDs like Solaris - or non-unique thread IDs like Linux; allows application developers - to override the library's default insensitivity to some apps - that may not be strictly POSIX compliant. - * version.rc: New resource module to encode version information - within the DLL. - * pthread.h: Added PTW32_VERSION* defines and grouped sections - required by resource compiler together; bulk of file is skipped - if RC_INVOKED. Defined some error numbers and other names for - Borland compiler. - -2004-11-02 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * pthread_cond_wait.c (ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup): Lock CV mutex at - start of cleanup handler rather than at the end. - * implement.h (PTW32_THREAD_REUSE_EMPTY): Renamed from *_BOTTOM. - (ptw32_threadReuseBottom): New global variable. - * global.c (ptw32_threadReuseBottom): Declare new variable. - * ptw32_reuse.c (ptw32_reuse): Change reuse LIFO stack to LILO queue - to more evenly distribute use of reusable thread IDs; use renamed - PTW32_THREAD_REUSE_EMPTY. - * ptw32_processTerminate.c (ptw2_processTerminate): Use renamed - PTW32_THREAD_REUSE_EMPTY. - -2004-10-31 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * implement.h (PThreadState): Add new state value - 'PThreadStateCancelPending'. - * pthread_testcancel.c (pthread_testcancel): Use new thread - 'PThreadStateCancelPending' state as short cut to avoid entering - kernel space via WaitForSingleObject() call. This was obviated - by user space sema acquisition in sem_wait() and sem_timedwait(), - which are also cancelation points. A call to pthread_testcancel() - was required, which introduced a kernel call, effectively nullifying - any gains made by the user space sem acquisition checks. - * pthread_cancel.c (pthread_cancel): Set new thread - 'PThreadStateCancelPending' state. - -2004-10-29 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * implement.h (pthread_t): Renamed to ptw32_thread_t; struct contains - all thread state. - * pthread.h (ptw32_handle_t): New general purpose struct to serve - as a handle for various reusable object IDs - currently only used - by pthread_t; contains a pointer to ptw32_thread_t (thread state) - and a general purpose uint for use as a reuse counter or flags etc. - (pthread_t): typedef'ed to ptw32_handle_t; the uint is the reuse - counter that allows the library to maintain unique POSIX thread IDs. - When the pthread struct reuse stack was introduced, threads would - often acquire an identical ID to a previously destroyed thread. The - same was true for the pre-reuse stack library, by virtue of pthread_t - being the address of the thread struct. The new pthread_t retains - the reuse stack but provides virtually unique thread IDs. - * sem_wait.c (ptw32_sem_wait_cleanup): New routine used for - cancelation cleanup. - * sem_timedwait.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait_cleanup): Likewise. - -2004-10-22 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * sem_init.c (sem_init): Introduce a 'lock' element in order to - replace the interlocked operations with conventional serialisation. - This is needed in order to be able to atomically modify the sema - value and perform Win32 sema release operations. Win32 semaphores are - used instead of events in order to support efficient multiple posting. - If the whole modify/release isn't atomic, a race between - sem_timedwait() and sem_post() could result in a release when there is - no waiting semaphore, which would cause too many threads to proceed. - * sem_wait.c (sem_wait): Use new 'lock'element. - * sem_timedwait.c (sem_timedwait): Likewise. - * sem_trywait.c (sem_trywait): Likewise. - * sem_post.c (sem_post): Likewise. - * sem_post_multiple.c (sem_post_multiple): Likewise. - * sem_getvalue.c (sem_getvalue): Likewise. - * ptw32_semwait.c (ptw32_semwait): Likewise. - * sem_destroy.c (sem_destroy): Likewise; also tightened the conditions - for semaphore destruction; in particular, a semaphore will not be - destroyed if it has waiters. - * sem_timedwait.c (sem_timedwait): Added cancel cleanup handler to - restore sema value when cancelled. - * sem_wait.c (sem_wait): Likewise. - -2004-10-21 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * pthread_mutex_unlock.c (pthread_mutex_unlock): Must use PulseEvent() - rather than SetEvent() to reset the event if there are no waiters. - -2004-10-19 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * sem_init.c (sem_init): New semaphore model based on the same idea - as mutexes, i.e. user space interlocked check to avoid - unnecessarily entering kernel space. Wraps the Win32 semaphore and - keeps it's own counter. Although the motivation to do this has existed - for a long time, credit goes to Alexander Terekhov for providing - the logic. I have deviated slightly from AT's logic to add the waiters - count, which has made the code more complicated by adding cancelation - cleanup. This also appears to have broken the VCE (C++ EH) version of - the library (the same problem as previously reported - see BUGS #2), - only apparently not fixable using the usual workaround, nor by turning - all optimisation off. The GCE version works fine, so it is presumed to - be a bug in MSVC++ 6.0. The cancelation exception is thrown and caught - correctly, but the cleanup class destructor is never called. The failing - test is tests\semaphore4.c. - * sem_wait.c (sem_wait): Implemented user space check model. - * sem_post.c (sem_post): Likewise. - * sem_trywait.c (sem_trywait): Likewise. - * sem_timedwait.c (sem_timedwait): Likewise. - * sem_post_multiple.c (sem_post_multiple): Likewise. - * sem_getvalue.c (sem_getvalue): Likewise. - * ptw32_semwait.c (ptw32_semwait): Likewise. - * implement.h (sem_t_): Add counter element. - -2004-10-15 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * implement.h (pthread_mutex_t_): Use an event in place of - the POSIX semaphore. - * pthread_mutex_init.c: Create the event; remove semaphore init. - * pthread_mutex_destroy.c: Delete the event. - * pthread_mutex_lock.c: Replace the semaphore wait with the event wait. - * pthread_mutex_trylock.c: Likewise. - * pthread_mutex_timedlock.c: Likewise. - * pthread_mutex_unlock.c: Set the event. - -2004-10-14 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au> - - * pthread_mutex_lock.c (pthread_mutex_lock): New algorithm using - Terekhov's xchg based variation of Drepper's cmpxchg model. - Theoretically, xchg uses fewer clock cycles than cmpxchg (using IA-32 - as a reference), however, in my opinion bus locking dominates the - equation on smp systems, so the model with the least number of bus - lock operations in the execution path should win, which is Terekhov's - variant. On IA-32 uni-processor systems, it's faster to use the - CMPXCHG instruction without locking the bus than to use the XCHG - instruction, which always locks the bus. This makes the two variants - equal for the non-contended lock (fast lane) execution path on up - IA-32.

The users termination function should conform - to standard C++ semantics which is to not return.

Set to NULL in PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER. - The pthread_mutex_*() routines will try to optimise performance - by choosing either mutexes or critical sections as the basis - for pthread mutexes for each indevidual mutex. - (pthread_mutexattr_t_): Add 'forcecs' element. - Some applications may choose to force use of critical sections - if they know that:- - the mutex is PROCESS_PRIVATE and, - either the OS supports TryEnterCriticalSection() or - pthread_mutex_trylock() will never be called on the mutex. - This attribute will be setable via a non-portable routine. - - Note: We don't yet support PROCESS_SHARED mutexes, so the - implementation as it stands will default to Win32 mutexes only if - the OS doesn't support TryEnterCriticalSection. On Win9x, and early - versions of NT 'forcecs' will need to be set in order to get - critical section based mutexes. - -Sun Jan 17 12:01:26 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> - - * pthread.h (PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER): Init new 'staticinit' - value to '1' and existing 'valid' value to '1'. - - * global.c (ptw32_mutex_test_init_lock): Add. - - * implement.h (ptw32_mutex_test_init_lock.): Add extern. - - * private.c (ptw32_processInitialize): Init critical section for - global lock used by _mutex_check_need_init(). - (ptw32_processTerminate): Ditto (:s/Init/Destroy/). - - * dll.c (dllMain): Move call to FreeLibrary() so that it is only - called once when the process detaches. - - * mutex.c (_mutex_check_need_init): New static function to test - and init PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER mutexes. Provides serialised - access to the internal state of the uninitialised static mutex. - Called from pthread_mutex_trylock() and pthread_mutex_lock() which - do a quick unguarded test to check if _mutex_check_need_init() - needs to be called. This is safe as the test is conservative - and is repeated inside the guarded section of - _mutex_check_need_init(). Thus in all calls except the first - calls to lock static mutexes, the additional overhead to lock any - mutex is a single memory fetch and test for zero. - - * pthread.h (pthread_mutex_t_): Add 'staticinit' member. Mutexes - initialised by PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER aren't really initialised - until the first attempt to lock it. Using the 'valid' - flag (which flags the mutex as destroyed or not) to record this - information would be messy. It is possible for a statically - initialised mutex such as this to be destroyed before ever being - used. - - * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_trylock): Call _mutex_check_need_init() - to test/init PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER mutexes. - (pthread_mutex_lock): Ditto. - (pthread_mutex_unlock): Add check to ensure we don't try to unlock - an unitialised static mutex. - (pthread_mutex_destroy): Add check to ensure we don't try to delete - a critical section that we never created. Allows us to destroy - a static mutex that has never been locked (and hence initialised). - (pthread_mutex_init): Set 'staticinit' flag to 0 for the new mutex. - -Sun Jan 17 12:01:26 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> - - * private.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait): Move from semaphore.c. - - * semaphore.c : Remove redundant #includes. - (ptw32_sem_timedwait): Move to private.c. - (sem_wait): Add missing abstime arg to pthreadCancelableWait() call. - -Fri Jan 15 23:38:05 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> - - * condvar.c (cond_timedwait): Remove comment. - -Fri Jan 15 15:41:28 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at swan.canberra.edu.au> - - * pthread.h: Add new 'abstime' arg to pthreadCancelableWait() - prototype. - - * condvar.c (cond_timedwait): New generalised function called by - both pthread_cond_wait() and pthread_cond_timedwait(). This is - essentially pthread_cond_wait() renamed and modified to add the - 'abstime' arg and call the new ptw32_sem_timedwait() instead of - sem_wait(). - (pthread_cond_wait): Now just calls the internal static - function cond_timedwait() with an INFINITE wait. - (pthread_cond_timedwait): Now implemented. Calls the internal - static function cond_timedwait(). - - * implement.h (ptw32_sem_timedwait): New internal function - prototype. - - * misc.c (pthreadCancelableWait): Added new 'abstime' argument - to allow shorter than INFINITE wait. - - * semaphore.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait): New function for internal - use. This is essentially sem_wait() modified to add the - 'abstime' arg and call the modified (see above) - pthreadCancelableWait(). - -Thu Jan 14 14:27:13 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at swan.canberra.edu.au> - - * cleanup.c: Correct _cplusplus to __cplusplus wherever used. - - * Makefile.in: Add CC=g++ and add -fhandle-exceptions to CFLAGS. - The derived Makefile will compile all units of the package as C++ - so that those which include try/catch exception handling should work - properly. The package should compile ok if CC=gcc, however, exception - handling will not be included and thus thread cancellation, for - example, will not work. - - * cleanup.c (ptw32_pop_cleanup): Add #warning to compile this - file as C++ if using a cygwin32 environment. Perhaps the whole package - should be compiled using g++ under cygwin. - - * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Change #error directive - into #warning and bracket for __CYGWIN__ and derivative compilers. - -Wed Jan 13 09:34:52 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> - - * build.bat: Delete old binaries before compiling/linking. - -Tue Jan 12 09:58:38 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml at iki.fi> - - * dll.c: The Microsoft compiler pragmas probably are more - appropriately protected by _MSC_VER than by _WIN32. - - * pthread.h: Define ETIMEDOUT.

+
+ * pthread_once.c: Re-implement using an MCS queue-based lock. The form
+ of pthread_once is as proposed by Alexander Terekhov (see entry of
+ 2005-03-13). The MCS lock implementation does not require a unique
+ 'name' to identify the lock between threads. Attempts to get the Event
+ or Semaphore based versions of pthread_once to a satisfactory level
+ of robustness have thus far failed. The last problem (avoiding races
+ involving non recycle-unique Win32 HANDLEs) was giving everyone
+ grey hair trying to solve it.
+
+ * ptw32_MCS_lock.c: New MCS queue-based lock implementation. These
+ locks are efficient: they have very low overhead in the uncontended case;
+ are efficient in contention and minimise cache-coherence updates in
+ managing the user level FIFO queue; do not require an ABI change in the
+ library.
+
+2005-05-27 Alexander Gottwald <alexander.gottwald at s1999.tu-chemnitz.de>
+
+ * pthread.h: Some things, like HANDLE, were only defined if
+ PTW32_LEVEL was >= 3. They should always be defined.
+
+2005-05-25 Vladimir Kliatchko <vladimir at kliatchko.com>
+
+ * pthread_once.c: Eliminate all priority operations and other
+ complexity by replacing the event with a semaphore. The advantage
+ of the change is the ability to release just one waiter if the

+ * GNUmakefile: Patched to allow cross-compile with mingw32 on Linux.
+ It uses macros instead of referencing dlltool, gcc and g++ directly;

+ * pthread_win32_attach_detach_np.c (pthread_win32_thread_detach_np):
+ Move on-exit-only stuff from ptw32_threadDestroy() to here.
+ * ptw32_threadDestroy.c: It's purpose is now only to reclaim thread
+ resources for detached threads, or via pthread_join() or
+ pthread_detach() on joinable threads.
+ * ptw32_threadStart.c: Calling user destruct routines has moved to
+ pthread_win32_thread_detach_np(); call pthread_win32_thread_detach_np()
+ directly if statically linking, otherwise do so via dllMain; store
+ thread return value in thread struct for all cases, including

+ pthread_win32_thread_detach_np.
+ * pthread_join.c (pthread_join): Don't try to get return code from
+ Win32 thread - always get it from he thread struct.
+ * pthread_detach.c (pthread_detach): reduce extent of the thread

+ change all references to it.
+ * implement.h (struct ThreadKeyAssoc): Remove lock; add prevKey
+ and prevThread pointers; re-implemented all routines that use this
+ struct. The effect of this is to save one handle per association,
+ which could potentially equal the number of keys multiplied by the
+ number of threads, accumulating over time - and to free the
+ association memory as soon as it is no longer referenced by either
+ the key or the thread. Previously, the handle and memory were
+ released only after BOTH key and thread no longer referenced the
+ association. That is, often no association resources were released
+ until the process itself exited. In addition, at least one race
+ condition has been removed - where two threads could attempt to
+ release the association resources simultaneously - one via
+ ptw32_callUserDestroyRoutines and the other via
+ pthread_key_delete.

+
+ * pthread_once.c (pthread_once): Downgrade interlocked operations to simple
+ memory operations where these are protected by the critical section; edit
+ comments.
+
+2005-03-13 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_once.c (pthread_once): Completely redesigned; a change was
+ required to the ABI (pthread_once_t_), and resulting in a version
+ compatibility index increment.
+
+ NOTES:
+ The design (based on pseudo code contributed by Gottlob Frege) avoids
+ creating a kernel object if there is no contention. See URL for details:-
+ http://sources.redhat.com/ml/pthreads-win32/2005/msg00029.html
+ This uses late initialisation similar to the technique already used for
+ pthreads-win32 mutexes and semaphores (from Alexander Terekhov).
+
+ The subsequent cancelation cleanup additions (by rpj) could not be implemented
+ without sacrificing some of the efficiency in Gottlob's design. In particular,
+ although each once_control uses it's own event to block on, a global CS is
+ required to manage it - since the event must be either re-usable or
+ re-creatable under cancelation. This is not needed in the non-cancelable
+ design because it is able to mark the event as closed (forever).
+
+ When uncontested, a CS operation is equivalent to an Interlocked operation
+ in speed. So, in the final design with cancelability, an uncontested
+ once_control operation involves a minimum of five interlocked operations
+ (including the LeaveCS operation).
+
+ ALTERNATIVES:
+ An alternative design from Alexander Terekhov proposed using a named mutex,
+ as sketched below:-
+
+ if (!once_control) { // May be in TLS
+ named_mutex::guard guard(&once_control2);
+ if (!once_control2) {
+ <init>
+ once_control2 = true;
+ }
+ once_control = true;
+ }
+
+ A more detailed description of this can be found here:-
+ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/message/15442
+
+ [Although the definition of a suitable PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT precludes use of the
+ TLS located flag, this is not critical.]
+
+ There are three primary concerns though:-
+ 1) The [named] mutex is 'created' even in the uncontended case.
+ 2) A system wide unique name must be generated.
+ 3) Win32 mutexes are VERY slow even in the uncontended case. An uncontested
+ Win32 mutex lock operation can be 50 (or more) times slower than an
+ uncontested EnterCS operation.
+
+ Ultimately, the named mutex trick is making use of the global locks maintained
+ by the kernel.
+
+ * pthread.h (pthread_once_t_): One flag and an event HANDLE added.
+ (PTHREAD_ONCE_INIT): Additional values included.

+ * pthread_mutex_lock.c (pthread_mutex_lock): The new atomic exchange
+ mutex algorithm is known to allow a thread to steal the lock off

+ was setting itself as the mutex's owner before the re-acquisition.

+
+2004-11-19 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * config.h (PTW32_THREAD_ID_REUSE_INCREMENT): Added to allow
+ building the library for either unique thread IDs like Solaris
+ or non-unique thread IDs like Linux; allows application developers
+ to override the library's default insensitivity to some apps
+ that may not be strictly POSIX compliant.
+ * version.rc: New resource module to encode version information
+ within the DLL.
+ * pthread.h: Added PTW32_VERSION* defines and grouped sections
+ required by resource compiler together; bulk of file is skipped
+ if RC_INVOKED. Defined some error numbers and other names for
+ Borland compiler.
+
+2004-11-02 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_cond_wait.c (ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup): Lock CV mutex at

+ (ptw32_threadReuseBottom): New global variable.
+ * global.c (ptw32_threadReuseBottom): Declare new variable.

+ PTW32_THREAD_REUSE_EMPTY.
+

+
+ * implement.h (PThreadState): Add new state value
+ 'PThreadStateCancelPending'.
+ * pthread_testcancel.c (pthread_testcancel): Use new thread
+ 'PThreadStateCancelPending' state as short cut to avoid entering
+ kernel space via WaitForSingleObject() call. This was obviated
+ by user space sema acquisition in sem_wait() and sem_timedwait(),
+ which are also cancelation points. A call to pthread_testcancel()
+ was required, which introduced a kernel call, effectively nullifying
+ any gains made by the user space sem acquisition checks.
+ * pthread_cancel.c (pthread_cancel): Set new thread
+ 'PThreadStateCancelPending' state.
+
+2004-10-29 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * implement.h (pthread_t): Renamed to ptw32_thread_t; struct contains
+ all thread state.
+ * pthread.h (ptw32_handle_t): New general purpose struct to serve
+ as a handle for various reusable object IDs - currently only used
+ by pthread_t; contains a pointer to ptw32_thread_t (thread state)
+ and a general purpose uint for use as a reuse counter or flags etc.
+ (pthread_t): typedef'ed to ptw32_handle_t; the uint is the reuse
+ counter that allows the library to maintain unique POSIX thread IDs.
+ When the pthread struct reuse stack was introduced, threads would
+ often acquire an identical ID to a previously destroyed thread. The
+ same was true for the pre-reuse stack library, by virtue of pthread_t
+ being the address of the thread struct. The new pthread_t retains
+ the reuse stack but provides virtually unique thread IDs.
+ * sem_wait.c (ptw32_sem_wait_cleanup): New routine used for
+ cancelation cleanup.
+ * sem_timedwait.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait_cleanup): Likewise.
+
+2004-10-22 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * sem_init.c (sem_init): Introduce a 'lock' element in order to
+ replace the interlocked operations with conventional serialisation.
+ This is needed in order to be able to atomically modify the sema
+ value and perform Win32 sema release operations. Win32 semaphores are
+ used instead of events in order to support efficient multiple posting.
+ If the whole modify/release isn't atomic, a race between
+ sem_timedwait() and sem_post() could result in a release when there is
+ no waiting semaphore, which would cause too many threads to proceed.
+ * sem_wait.c (sem_wait): Use new 'lock'element.
+ * sem_timedwait.c (sem_timedwait): Likewise.
+ * sem_trywait.c (sem_trywait): Likewise.

+ * sem_getvalue.c (sem_getvalue): Likewise.
+ * ptw32_semwait.c (ptw32_semwait): Likewise.
+ * sem_destroy.c (sem_destroy): Likewise; also tightened the conditions
+ for semaphore destruction; in particular, a semaphore will not be
+ destroyed if it has waiters.
+ * sem_timedwait.c (sem_timedwait): Added cancel cleanup handler to
+ restore sema value when cancelled.
+ * sem_wait.c (sem_wait): Likewise.
+
+2004-10-21 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_mutex_unlock.c (pthread_mutex_unlock): Must use PulseEvent()
+ rather than SetEvent() to reset the event if there are no waiters.
+
+2004-10-19 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * sem_init.c (sem_init): New semaphore model based on the same idea
+ as mutexes, i.e. user space interlocked check to avoid
+ unnecessarily entering kernel space. Wraps the Win32 semaphore and
+ keeps it's own counter. Although the motivation to do this has existed
+ for a long time, credit goes to Alexander Terekhov for providing
+ the logic. I have deviated slightly from AT's logic to add the waiters
+ count, which has made the code more complicated by adding cancelation
+ cleanup. This also appears to have broken the VCE (C++ EH) version of
+ the library (the same problem as previously reported - see BUGS #2),
+ only apparently not fixable using the usual workaround, nor by turning
+ all optimisation off. The GCE version works fine, so it is presumed to
+ be a bug in MSVC++ 6.0. The cancelation exception is thrown and caught
+ correctly, but the cleanup class destructor is never called. The failing
+ test is tests\semaphore4.c.
+ * sem_wait.c (sem_wait): Implemented user space check model.

+
+ * pthread_mutex_lock.c (pthread_mutex_lock): New algorithm using
+ Terekhov's xchg based variation of Drepper's cmpxchg model.
+ Theoretically, xchg uses fewer clock cycles than cmpxchg (using IA-32
+ as a reference), however, in my opinion bus locking dominates the
+ equation on smp systems, so the model with the least number of bus
+ lock operations in the execution path should win, which is Terekhov's
+ variant. On IA-32 uni-processor systems, it's faster to use the
+ CMPXCHG instruction without locking the bus than to use the XCHG
+ instruction, which always locks the bus. This makes the two variants
+ equal for the non-contended lock (fast lane) execution path on up
+ IA-32. Testing shows that the xchg variant is faster on up IA-32 as
+ well if the test forces higher lock contention frequency, even though
+ kernel calls should be dominating the times (on up IA-32, both
+ variants used CMPXCHG instructions and neither locked the bus).

+2004-09-27 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_mutex_lock.c (pthread_mutex_lock): Separate
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL logic since we do not need to keep or check some
+ state required by other mutex types; do not check mutex pointer arg
+ for validity - leave this to the system since we are only checking
+ for NULL pointers. This should improve speed of NORMAL mutexes and
+ marginally improve speed of other type.
+ * pthread_mutex_trylock.c (pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise.
+ * pthread_mutex_unlock.c (pthread_mutex_unlock): Likewise; also avoid
+ entering the critical section for the no-waiters case, with approx.
+ 30% reduction in lock/unlock overhead for this case.
+ * pthread_mutex_timedlock.c (pthread_mutex_timedlock): Likewise; also
+ no longer keeps mutex if post-timeout second attempt succeeds - this
+ will assist applications that wish to impose strict lock deadlines,
+ rather than simply to escape from frozen locks.

+
+ * create.c (pthread_create): Don't create a thread if the thread

+ using pthreads-win32 will run on all other POSIX threads
+ implementations, at least w.r.t. this feature.
+
+ It was decided not to copy the Solaris et al behaviour because,
+ although it would have simplified some application porting (but only
+ from Solaris to Windows), the feature is not technically necessary,
+ and the alternative segfault behaviour helps avoid buggy application
+ code.

+ (ptw32_RegisterCancelation): Drop in replacement for QueueUserAPCEx()
+ if it can't be used. Provides older style non-preemptive async
+ cancelation.
+ * pthread_win32_attach_detach_np.c (pthread_win32_attach_np):
+ Auto-detect quserex.dll and the availability of alertdrv.sys;
+ initialise and close on process attach/detach.
+ * global.c (ptw32_register_cancelation): Pointer to either

+2003-10-20 James Ewing <james.ewing at sveasoft.com>
+
+ * ptw32_getprocessors.c: Some Win32 environments don't have

+
+2003-10-15 Ross Johnson <ross at callisto.canberra.edu.au>

+ editor ugliness (used GNU indent utility in default style).
+
+2003-10-15 Alex Blanco <Alex.Blanco at motorola.com>
+
+ * sem_init.c (sem_init): Would call CreateSemaphore even if the sema
+ struct calloc failed; was not freeing calloced memory if either
+ CreateSemaphore or CreateEvent failed.
+
+2003-10-14 Ross Johnson <ross at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h: Add Watcom compiler compatibility. Esssentially just add
+ the cdecl attribute to all exposed function prototypes so that Watcom
+ generates function call code compatible with non-Watcom built libraries.
+ By default, Watcom uses registers to pass function args if possible rather
+ than pushing to stack.
+ * semaphore.h: Likewise.
+ * sched.h: Likewise.
+ * pthread_cond_wait.c (ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup): Define with cdecl attribute
+ for Watcom compatibility. This routine is called via pthread_cleanup_push so
+ it had to match function arg definition.
+ * Wmakefile: New makefile for Watcom builds.
+
+2003-09-14 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_setschedparam.c (pthread_setschedparam): Attempt to map
+ all priority levels between max and min (as returned by
+ sched_get_priority_min/max) to reasonable Win32 priority levels - i.e.
+ levels between THREAD_PRIORITY_LOWEST/IDLE to THREAD_PRIORITY_LOWEST and
+ between THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST/TIME_CRITICAL to THREAD_PRIORITY_HIGHEST
+ while others remain unchanged; record specified thread priority level
+ for return by pthread_getschedparam.
+
+ Note that, previously, specified levels not matching Win32 priority levels
+ would silently leave the current thread priority unaltered.
+
+ * pthread_getschedparam.c (pthread_getschedparam): Return the priority
+ level specified by the latest pthread_setschedparam or pthread_create rather
+ than the actual running thread priority as returned by GetThreadPriority - as
+ required by POSIX. I.e. temporary or adjusted actual priority levels are not
+ returned by this routine.
+
+ * pthread_create.c (pthread_create): For priority levels specified via
+ pthread attributes, attempt to map all priority levels between max and
+ min (as returned by sched_get_priority_min/max) to reasonable Win32
+ priority levels; record priority level given via attributes, or
+ inherited from parent thread, for later return by pthread_getschedparam.
+
+ * ptw32_new.c (ptw32_new): Initialise pthread_t_ sched_priority element.
+
+ * pthread_self.c (pthread_self): Set newly created implicit POSIX thread
+ sched_priority to Win32 thread's current actual priority. Temporarily
+ altered priorities can't be avoided in this case.
+
+ * implement.h (struct pthread_t_): Add new sched_priority element.
+
+2003-09-12 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * sched_get_priority_min.c (sched_get_priority_min): On error should return -1

+ * sched_get_priority_max.c (sched_get_priority_max): Likewise.
+
+2003-09-03 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * w32_cancelableWait.c (ptw32_cancelable_wait): Allow cancelation
+ of implicit POSIX threads as well.
+
+2003-09-02 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_win32_attach_detach_np.c (pthread_win32_thread_detach_np):
+ Add comment.
+
+ * pthread_exit.c (pthread_exit): Fix to recycle the POSIX thread handle in
+ addition to calling user TSD destructors. Move the implicit POSIX thread exit
+ handling to ptw32_throw to centralise the logic.
+
+ * ptw32_throw.c (ptw32_throw): Implicit POSIX threads have no point
+ to jump or throw to, so cleanup and exit the thread here in this case. For
+ processes using the C runtime, the exit code will be set to the POSIX
+ reason for the throw (i.e. PTHREAD_CANCEL or the value given to pthread_exit).
+ Note that pthread_exit() already had similar logic, which has been moved to
+ here.
+
+ * ptw32_threadDestroy.c (ptw32_threadDestroy): Don't close the Win32 handle
+ of implicit POSIX threads - expect this to be done by Win32?
+
+2003-09-01 Ross Johnson <rpj at callisto.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_self.c (pthread_self): The newly aquired pthread_t must be
+ assigned to the reuse stack, not freed, if the routine fails somehow.
+
+2003-08-13 Ross Johnson <rpj at ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread_getschedparam.c (pthread_getschedparam): An invalid thread ID
+ parameter was returning an incorrect error value; now uses a more exhaustive
+ check for validity.
+
+ * pthread_setschedparam.c (pthread_setschedparam): Likewise.
+
+ * pthread_join.c (pthread_join): Now uses a more exhaustive
+ check for validity.
+
+ * pthread_detach.c (pthread_detach): Likewise.
+
+ * pthread_cancel.c (pthread_cancel): Likewise.
+
+ * ptw32_threadDestroy.c (ptw32_threadDestroy): pthread_t structs are
+ never freed - push them onto a stack for reuse.
+
+ * ptw32_new.c (ptw32_new): Check for reusable pthread_t before dynamically
+ allocating new memory for the struct.
+
+ * pthread_kill.c (pthread_kill): New file; new routine; takes only a zero
+ signal arg so that applications can check the thread arg for validity; checks
+ that the underlying Win32 thread HANDLE is valid.
+
+ * pthread.h (pthread_kill): Add prototype.
+
+ * ptw32_reuse.c (ptw32_threadReusePop): New file; new routine; pop a
+ pthread_t off the reuse stack. pthread_t_ structs that have been destroyed, i.e.
+ have exited detached or have been joined, are cleaned up and put onto a reuse
+ stack. Consequently, thread IDs are no longer freed once calloced. The library
+ will attempt to get a struct off this stack before asking the system to alloc
+ new memory when creating threads. The stack is guarded by a global mutex.
+ (ptw32_threadReusePush): New routine; push a pthread_t onto the reuse stack.
+
+ * implement.h (ptw32_threadReusePush): Add new prototype.
+ (ptw32_threadReusePop): Likewise.
+ (pthread_t): Add new element.
+
+ * ptw32_processTerminate.c (ptw32_processTerminate): Delete the thread
+ reuse lock; free all thread ID structs on the thread reuse stack.
+
+ * ptw32_processInitialize.c (ptw32_processInitialize): Initialise the
+ thread reuse lock.
+
+2003-07-19 Ross Johnson <rpj at ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * GNUmakefile: modified to work under MsysDTK environment.
+ * pthread_spin_lock.c (pthread_spin_lock): Check for NULL arg.
+ * pthread_spin_unlock.c (pthread_spin_unlock): Likewise.
+ * pthread_spin_trylock.c (pthread_spin_trylock): Likewise;
+ fix incorrect pointer value if lock is dynamically initialised by
+ this function.
+ * sem_init.c (sem_init): Initialise sem_t value to quell compiler warning.
+ * sem_destroy.c (sem_destroy): Likewise.
+ * ptw32_threadStart.c (non-MSVC code sections): Include <exception> rather
+ than old-style <new.h>; fix all std:: namespace entities such as
+ std::terminate_handler instances and associated methods.
+ * ptw32_callUserDestroyRoutines.c (non-MSVC code sections): Likewise.
+
+2003-06-24 Piet van Bruggen <pietvb at newbridges.nl>
+
+ * pthread_spin_destroy.c (pthread_spin_destroy): Was not freeing the
+ spinlock struct.
+
+2003-06-22 Nicolas Barry <boozai at yahoo.com>
+
+ * pthread_mutex_destroy.c (pthread_mutex_destroy): When called
+ with a recursive mutex that was locked by the current thread, the
+ function was failing with a success return code.
+
+2003-05-15 Steven Reddie <Steven.Reddie at ca.com>
+
+ * pthread_win32_attach_detach_np.c (pthread_win32_process_detach_np):
+ NULLify ptw32_selfThreadKey after the thread is destroyed, otherwise
+ destructors calling pthreads routines might resurrect it again, creating
+ memory leaks. Call the underlying Win32 Tls routine directly rather than
+ pthread_setspecific().
+ (pthread_win32_thread_detach_np): Likewise.
+
+2003-05-14 Viv <vcotirlea at hotmail.com>
+
+ * pthread.dsp: Change /MT compile flag to /MD.
+
+2003-03-04 Alexander Terekhov <TEREKHOV at de.ibm.com>
+
+ * pthread_mutex_timedlock.c (pthread_mutex_timedlock): Fix failure to
+ set ownership of mutex on second grab after abstime timeout.
+ - bug reported by Robert Strycek <strycek at posam.sk>
+
+2002-12-17 Thomas Pfaff <tpfaff at gmx.net>
+
+ * pthread_mutex_lock.c (ptw32_semwait): New static routine to provide
+ a non-cancelable sem_wait() function. This is consistent with the
+ way that pthread_mutex_timedlock.c does it.
+ (pthread_mutex_lock): Use ptw32_semwait() instead of sem_wait().
+
+2002-12-11 Thomas Pfaff <tpfaff at gmx.net>
+
+ * pthread_mutex_trylock.c: Should return EBUSY rather than EDEADLK.
+ * pthread_mutex_destroy.c: Remove redundant ownership test (the
+ trylock call does this for us); do not destroy a recursively locked
+ mutex.
+
+2002-09-20 Michael Johnson <michaelj at maine.rr.com>
+
+ * pthread_cond_destroy.c (pthread_cond_destroy):
+ When two different threads exist, and one is attempting to
+ destroy a condition variable while the other is attempting to
+ initialize a condition variable that was created with
+ PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER, a deadlock can occur. Shrink
+ the ptw32_cond_list_lock critical section to fix it.
+
+2002-07-31 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * ptw32_threadStart.c (ptw32_threadStart): Thread cancelLock
+ destruction moved to ptw32_threadDestroy().
+
+ * ptw32_threadDestroy.c (ptw32_threadDestroy): Destroy
+ the thread's cancelLock. Moved here from ptw32_threadStart.c
+ to cleanup implicit threads as well.
+
+2002-07-30 Alexander Terekhov <TEREKHOV at de.ibm.com>
+
+ * pthread_cond_wait.c (ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup):
+ Remove code designed to avoid/prevent spurious wakeup
+ problems. It is believed that the sem_timedwait() call
+ is consuming a CV signal that it shouldn't and this is
+ breaking the avoidance logic.
+
+2002-07-30 Ross Johnson <rpj at ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * sem_timedwait.c (sem_timedwait): Tighten checks for
+ unreasonable abstime values - that would result in
+ unexpected timeout values.
+
+ * w32_CancelableWait.c (ptw32_cancelable_wait):
+ Tighten up return value checking and add comments.
+
+
+2002-06-08 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * sem_getvalue.c (sem_getvalue): Now returns a value for the
+ NEED_SEM version (i.e. earlier versions of WinCE).
+
+
+2002-06-04 Rob Fanner <rfanner at stonethree.com>
+
+ * sem_getvalue.c (sem_getvalue): The Johnson M. Hart
+ approach didn't work - we are forced to take an
+ intrusive approach. We try to decrement the sema
+ and then immediately release it again to get the
+ value. There is a small probability that this may
+ block other threads, but only momentarily.
+
+2002-06-03 Ross Johnson <rpj at ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * sem_init.c (sem_init): Initialise Win32 semaphores
+ to _POSIX_SEM_VALUE_MAX (which this implementation
+ defines in pthread.h) so that sem_getvalue() can use
+ the trick described in the comments in sem_getvalue().
+ * pthread.h (_POSIX_SEM_VALUE_MAX): Defined.
+ (_POSIX_SEM_NSEMS_MAX): Defined - not used but may be
+ useful for source code portability.
+
+2002-06-03 Rob Fanner <rfanner at stonethree.com>
+
+ * sem_getvalue.c (sem_getvalue): Did not work on NT.
+ Use approach suggested by Johnson M. Hart in his book
+ "Win32 System Programming".
+
+2002-02-28 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * errno.c: Compiler directive was incorrectly including code.
+ * pthread.h: Conditionally added some #defines from config.h
+ needed when not building the library. e.g. NEED_ERRNO, NEED_SEM.
+ (PTW32_DLLPORT): Now only defined if _DLL defined.
+ (_errno): Compiler directive was incorrectly including prototype.
+ * sched.h: Conditionally added some #defines from config.h
+ needed when not building the library.
+ * semaphore.h: Replace an instance of NEED_SEM that should
+ have been NEED_ERRNO. This change currently has nil effect.
+
+ * GNUmakefile: Correct some recent changes.
+
+ * Makefile: Add rule to generate pre-processor output.
+
+2002-02-23 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+

+
+ * pthread_cond_destroy.c: Expand the time change

+ * pthread.h: Use dllexport/dllimport attributes on functions
+ to avoid using pthread.def.
+ * sched.h: Likewise.

+
+2002-02-20 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>

+
+2002-02-17 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au
+
+ * Testsuite passed.
+
+ * pthread_timechange_handler_np.c: New; following
+ a suggestion from Alexander Terekhov that CVs should
+ be broadcast so that they all re-evaluate their
+ condition variables and reset a new timeout if
+ required, whenever an application receives a
+ WM_TIMECHANGE message. This message indicates that
+ the system time has been changed. Therefore, CVs
+ waiting for a timeout set as an abs_time will possibly
+ not wake up at the expected time. Some applications
+ may not be tolerant of this.
+ * pthread_cond_init.c: Add CV to linked list.
+ * pthread_cond_destroy.c: Remove CV from linked list.
+ * global.c (ptw32_cond_list_head): New variable.

+ Reduced name space pollution.
+ -----------------------------
+ When the appropriate symbols are defined, the headers

+
+ * cancel.c: Rearranged some code and introduced checks
+ to disable cancelation at the start of a thread's cancelation
+ run to prevent double cancelation. The main problem
+ arises if a thread is canceling and then receives a subsequent
+ async cancel request.
+ * private.c: Likewise.
+ * condvar.c: Place pragmas around cleanup_push/pop to turn
+ off inline optimisation (/Obn where n>0 - MSVC only). Various

+
+2002-01-27 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_timedlock): New function suggested by
+ Alexander Terekhov. The logic required to implement this
+ properly came from Alexander, with some collaboration
+ with Thomas Pfaff.
+ (pthread_mutex_unlock): Wrap the waiters check and sema
+ post in a critical section to prevent a race with
+ pthread_mutex_timedlock.
+ (ptw32_timed_semwait): New function;
+ returns a special result if the absolute timeout parameter
+ represents a time already passed when called; used by
+ pthread_mutex_timedwait(). Have deliberately not reused
+ the name "ptw32_sem_timedwait" because they are not the same
+ routine.
+ * condvar.c (ptw32_cond_timedwait): Use the new sem_timedwait()
+ instead of ptw32_sem_timedwait(), which now has a different
+ function. See previous.
+ * implement.h: Remove prototype for ptw32_sem_timedwait.
+ See next.
+ (pthread_mutex_t_): Add critical section element for access
+ to lock_idx during mutex post-timeout processing.
+ * semaphore.h (sem_timedwait): See next.
+ * semaphore.c (sem_timedwait): See next.
+ * private.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait): Move to semaphore.c

+
+2002-01-15 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h: Unless the build explicitly defines __CLEANUP_SEH,
+ __CLEANUP_CXX, or __CLEANUP_C, then the build defaults to
+ __CLEANUP_C style cleanup. This style uses setjmp/longjmp
+ in the cancelation and thread exit implementations and therefore
+ won't do stack unwinding if linked to applications that have it
+ (e.g. C++ apps). This is currently consistent with most/all
+ commercial Unix POSIX threads implementations.
+
+ * spin.c (pthread_spin_init): Edit renamed function call.
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_num_processors_np): New.
+ (pthread_getprocessors_np): Renamed to ptw32_getprocessors
+ and moved to private.c.

+
+2002-01-08 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_trylock): use
+ ptw32_interlocked_compare_exchange function pointer
+ rather than ptw32_InterlockedCompareExchange() directly
+ to retain portability to non-iX86 processors,
+ e.g. WinCE etc. The pointer will point to the native

+2002-01-07 Thomas Pfaff <tpfaff at gmx.net>, Alexander Terekhov <TEREKHOV at de.ibm.com>
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Remove critical

+ (pthread_mutex_destroy): Likewise.
+ (pthread_mutex_unlock): Likewise.

+ recursive mutexes now increment the lock count rather
+ than return EBUSY; errorcheck mutexes return EDEADLCK

+
+
+2002-01-04 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>

+ * implement.h (pthread_attr_t_): Add new scope element.
+ * ANNOUNCE: Fix out of date comment next to

+
+2001-12-21 Alexander Terekhov <TEREKHOV at de.ibm.com>

+ (pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise.
+
+2001-10-26 prionx@juno.com
+
+ * semaphore.c (sem_init): Fix typo and missing bracket
+ in conditionally compiled code. Only older versions of
+ WinCE require this code, hence it doesn't normally get
+ tested; somehow when sem_t reverted to an opaque struct
+ the calloc NULL check was left in the conditionally included
+ section.
+ (sem_destroy): Likewise, the calloced sem_t wasn't being freed.
+
+2001-10-25 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>

+
+2001-10-24 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * attr.c (pthread_attr_setstacksize): Quell warning
+ from LCC by conditionally compiling the stacksize

+ (stacksize < PTHREAD_STACK_MIN) is suspicious
+ because STACK_MIN is 0 and stacksize is of type
+ size_t (or unsigned int).
+
+2001-10-17 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * barrier.c: Move _LONG and _LPLONG defines into

+ * spin.c: Likewise; ptw32_interlocked_compare_exchange used
+ in place of InterlockedCompareExchange directly.
+ * global.c (ptw32_interlocked_compare_exchange): Add
+ prototype for this new routine pointer to be used when
+ InterlockedCompareExchange isn't supported by Windows.
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_win32_process_attach_np): Check for
+ support of InterlockedCompareExchange in kernel32 and assign its
+ address to ptw32_interlocked_compare_exchange if it exists, or
+ our own ix86 specific implementation ptw32_InterlockedCompareExchange.
+ *private.c (ptw32_InterlockedCompareExchange): An
+ implementation of InterlockedCompareExchange() which is
+ specific to ix86; written directly in assembler for either

+ InterlockedCompareExchange().
+
+ * sched.c (sched_get_priority_min): Extend to return

+
+ * condvar.c (pthread_cond_destroy): fix bug with

+
+2001-08-23 Phil Frisbie, Jr. <phil at hawksoft.com>

+
+2001-07-15 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * rwlock.c (pthread_rwlock_wrlock): Is allowed to be

+ around the CV call.
+
+2001-07-10 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * barrier.c: Still more revamping. The exclusive access
+ mutex isn't really needed so it has been removed and replaced
+ by an InterlockedDecrement(). nSerial has been removed.
+ iStep is now dual-purpose. The process shared attribute
+ is now stored in the barrier struct.
+ * implement.h (pthread_barrier_t_): Lost some/gained one

+ * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Removed some comments.
+
+2001-07-10 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>

+ * implement.h (pthread_barrier_t_): Revamped.
+
+2001-07-09 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * barrier.c: Fix several bugs in all routines. Now passes
+ tests/barrier5.c which is fairly rigorous. There is still
+ a non-optimal work-around for a race condition between
+ the barrier breeched event signal and event wait. Basically
+ the last (signalling) thread to hit the barrier yields
+ to allow any other threads, which may have lost the race,
+ to complete.
+
+2001-07-07 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * barrier.c: Changed synchronisation mechanism to a
+ Win32 manual reset Event and use PulseEvent to signal
+ waiting threads. If the implementation continued to use
+ a semaphore it would require a second semaphore and
+ some management to use them alternately as barriers. A
+ single semaphore allows threads to cascade from one barrier
+ through the next, leaving some threads blocked at the first.
+ * implement.h (pthread_barrier_t_): As per above.
+ * general: Made a number of other routines inlinable.
+
+2001-07-07 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>

+
+ * condvar.c: Fixed lost signal bug reported by Timur Aydin
+ (taydin@snet.net).
+ [RPJ (me) didn't translate the original algorithm
+ correctly.]
+ * semaphore.c: Added sem_post_multiple; this is a useful
+ routine, but it doesn't appear to be standard. For now it's
+ not an exported function.
+
+2001-06-25 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * create.c (pthread_create): Add priority inheritance
+ attributes.
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_lock): Remove some overhead for
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL mutex types. Specifically, avoid
+ calling pthread_self() and pthread_equal() to check/set
+ the mutex owner. Introduce a new pseudo owner for this
+ type. Test results suggest increases in speed of up to
+ 90% for non-blocking locks.
+ This is the default type of mutex used internally by other
+ synchronising objects, ie. condition variables and
+ read-write locks. The test rwlock7.c shows about a
+ 30-35% speed increase over snapshot 2001-06-06. The
+ price of this is that the application developer
+ must ensure correct behaviour, or explicitly set the
+ mutex to a safer type such as PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK.
+ For example, PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL (or PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT)
+ type mutexes will not return an error if a thread which is not
+ the owner calls pthread_mutex_unlock. The call will succeed
+ in unlocking the mutex if it is currently locked, but a
+ subsequent unlock by the true owner will then fail with EPERM.
+ This is however consistent with some other implementations.
+ (pthread_mutex_unlock): Likewise.
+ (pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise.
+ (pthread_mutex_destroy): Likewise.
+ * attr.c (pthread_attr_init): PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED is the
+ default inheritance attribute; THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL is
+ the default priority for new threads.
+ * sched.c (pthread_attr_setschedpolicy): Added routine.
+ (pthread_attr_getschedpolicy): Added routine.
+ (pthread_attr_setinheritsched): Added routine.
+ (pthread_attr_getinheritsched): Added routine.
+ * pthread.h (sched_rr_set_interval): Added as a macro;
+ returns -1 with errno set to ENOSYS.
+
+2001-06-23 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ *sched.c (pthread_attr_setschedparam): Add priority range
+ check.
+ (sched_setscheduler): New function; checks for a valid
+ pid and policy; checks for permission to set information
+ in the target process; expects pid to be a Win32 process ID,
+ not a process handle; the only scheduler policy allowed is
+ SCHED_OTHER.
+ (sched_getscheduler): Likewise, but checks for permission
+ to query.
+ * pthread.h (SCHED_*): Moved to sched.h as defined in the

+
+2001-06-06 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * semaphore.h (sem_t): Is now an opaque pointer;
+ moved actual definition to implement.h.
+ * implement.h (sem_t_): Move here from semaphore.h;
+ was the definition of sem_t.
+ * semaphore.c: Wherever necessary, changed use of sem
+ from that of a pointer to a pointer-pointer; added
+ extra checks for a valid sem_t; NULL sem_t when
+ it is destroyed; added extra checks when creating
+ and destroying sem_t elements in the NEED_SEM
+ code branches; changed from using a pthread_mutex_t
+ ((*sem)->mutex) to CRITICAL_SECTION ((*sem)->sem_lock_cs)
+ in NEED_SEM branches for access serialisation.
+
+2001-06-06 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+

+
+2001-06-05 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_mutex_setdefaultkind_np):

+ * pthread.h (pthread_mutex_setdefaultkind_np): Likewise.
+ (pthread_mutex_getdefaultkind_np): Likewise.
+ * pthread.def (pthread_mutexattr_setkind_np): Added.
+ (pthread_mutexattr_getkind_np): Likewise.
+
+ * README: Many changes that should have gone in before
+ the last snapshot.
+ * README.NONPORTABLE: New - referred to by ANNOUNCE
+ but never created; documents the non-portable routines
+ included in the library - moved from README with new
+ routines added.
+ * ANNOUNCE (pthread_mutexattr_setkind_np): Added to
+ compliance list.
+ (pthread_mutexattr_getkind_np): Likewise.
+
+2001-06-04 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * condvar.c: Add original description of the algorithm as
+ developed by Terekhov and Thomas, plus reference to
+ README.CV.
+
+2001-06-03 Alexander Terekhov <TEREKHOV at de.ibm.com>, Louis Thomas <lthomas at arbitrade.com>
+
+ * condvar.c (pthread_cond_init): Completely revamped.
+ (pthread_cond_destroy): Likewise.
+ (ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup): Likewise.
+ (ptw32_cond_timedwait): Likewise.
+ (ptw32_cond_unblock): New general signaling routine.
+ (pthread_cond_signal): Now calls ptw32_cond_unblock.
+ (pthread_cond_broadcast): Likewise.
+ * implement.h (pthread_cond_t_): Revamped.
+ * README.CV: New; explanation of the above changes.
+
+2001-05-30 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h (rand_r): Fake using _seed argument to quell
+ compiler warning (compiler should optimise this away later).
+
+ * GNUmakefile (OPT): Leave symbolic information out of the library
+ and increase optimisation level - for smaller faster prebuilt
+ dlls.
+
+2001-05-29 Milan Gardian <Milan.Gardian at LEIBINGER.com>
+
+ * Makefile: fix typo.
+ * pthreads.h: Fix problems with stdcall/cdecl conventions, in particular
+ remove the need for PT_STDCALL everywhere; remove warning supression.
+ * (errno): Fix the longstanding "inconsistent dll linkage" problem
+ with errno; now also works with /MD debugging libs -
+ warnings emerged when compiling pthreads library with /MD (or /MDd)
+ compiler switch, instead of /MT (or /MTd) (i.e. when compiling pthreads
+ using Multithreaded DLL CRT instead of Multithreaded statically linked
+ CRT).
+ * create.c (pthread_create): Likewise; fix typo.
+ * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Eliminate use of terminate() which doesn't
+ throw exceptions.
+ * Remove unnecessary #includes from a number of modules -
+ [I had to #include malloc.h in implement.h for gcc - rpj].
+
+2001-05-29 Thomas Pfaff <tpfaff at gmx.net>
+
+ * pthread.h (PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT): New; equivalent to
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT_NP.
+ * (PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL): Similarly.
+ * (PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK): Similarly.
+ * (PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE): Similarly.
+ * (pthread_mutex_setdefaultkind_np): New; Linux compatibility stub
+ for pthread_mutexattr_settype.
+ * (pthread_mutexattr_getkind_np): New; Linux compatibility stub
+ for pthread_mutexattr_gettype.
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutexattr_settype): New; allow
+ the following types of mutex:
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT_NP
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL_NP
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK_NP
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE_NP
+ * Note that PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT is equivalent to
+ PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL - ie. mutexes should no longer
+ be recursive by default, and a thread will deadlock if it
+ tries to relock a mutex it already owns. This is inline with
+ other pthreads implementations.
+ * (pthread_mutex_lock): Process the lock request
+ according to the mutex type.
+ * (pthread_mutex_init): Eliminate use of Win32 mutexes as the
+ basis of POSIX mutexes - instead, a combination of one critical section
+ and one semaphore are used in conjunction with Win32 Interlocked* routines.
+ * (pthread_mutex_destroy): Likewise.
+ * (pthread_mutex_lock): Likewise.
+ * (pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise.
+ * (pthread_mutex_unlock): Likewise.
+ * Use longjmp/setjmp to implement cancelation when building the library
+ using a C compiler which doesn't support exceptions, e.g. gcc -x c (note
+ that gcc -x c++ uses exceptions).
+ * Also fixed some of the same typos and eliminated PT_STDCALL as
+ Milan Gardian's patches above.
+
+2001-02-07 Alexander Terekhov <TEREKHOV at de.ibm.com>
+
+ * rwlock.c: Revamped.
+ * implement.h (pthread_rwlock_t_): Redefined.
+ This implementation does not have reader/writer starvation problem.
+ Rwlock attempts to behave more like a normal mutex with
+ races and scheduling policy determining who is more important;
+ It also supports recursive locking,
+ has less synchronization overhead (no broadcasts at all,
+ readers are not blocked on any condition variable) and seem to
+ be faster than the current implementation [W98 appears to be
+ approximately 15 percent faster at least - on top of speed increase
+ from Thomas Pfaff's changes to mutex.c - rpj].
+
+2000-12-29 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * Makefile: Back-out "for" loops which don't work.
+
+ * GNUmakefile: Remove the fake.a target; add the "realclean"
+ target; don't remove built libs under the "clean" target.
+
+ * config.h: Add a guard against multiple inclusion.
+
+ * semaphore.h: Add some defines from config.h to make
+ semaphore.h independent of config.h when building apps.
+
+ * pthread.h (_errno): Back-out previous fix until we know how to
+ fix it properly.
+
+ * implement.h (lockCount): Add missing element to pthread_mutex_t_.
+
+ * sync.c (pthread_join): Spelling fix in comment.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Reset original termination
+ function (C++).
+ (ptw32_threadStart): Cleanup detached threads early in case
+ the library is statically linked.
+ (ptw32_callUserDestroyRoutines): Remove [SEH] __try block from
+ destructor call so that unhandled exceptions will be passed through
+ to the system; call terminate() from [C++] try block for the same
+ reason.
+
+ * tsd.c (pthread_getspecific): Add comment.
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Initialise new elements in
+ pthread_mutex_t.
+ (pthread_mutex_unlock): Invert "pthread_equal()" test.
+
+2000-12-28 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * semaphore.c (mode_t): Use ifndef HAVE_MODE_T to include definition.
+
+ * config.h.in (HAVE_MODE_T): Added.
+ (_UWIN): Start adding defines for the UWIN package.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Unhandled exceptions are
+ now passed through to the system to deal with. This is consistent
+ with normal Windows behaviour. C++ applications may use
+ set_terminate() to override the default behaviour which is
+ to call ptw32_terminate(). Ptw32_terminate() cleans up some
+ POSIX thread stuff before calling the system default function
+ which calls abort(). The users termination function should conform
+ to standard C++ semantics which is to not return. It should
+ exit the thread (call pthread_exit()) or exit the application.
+ * private.c (ptw32_terminate): Added as the default set_terminate()
+ function. It calls the system default function after cleaning up
+ some POSIX thread stuff.
+
+ * implement.h (ptw32_try_enter_critical_section): Move
+ declaration.
+ * global.c (ptw32_try_enter_critical_section): Moved
+ from dll.c.
+ * dll.c: Move process and thread attach/detach code into
+ functions in nonportable.c.
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_win32_process_attach_np): Process
+ attach code from dll.c is now available to static linked
+ applications.
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_win32_process_detach_np): Likewise.
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_win32_thread_attach_np): Likewise.
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_win32_thread_detach_np): Likewise.
+
+ * pthread.h: Add new non-portable prototypes for static
+ linked applications.
+
+ * GNUmakefile (OPT): Increase optimisation flag and remove
+ debug info flag.
+
+ * pthread.def: Add new non-portable exports for static
+ linked applications.
+
+2000-12-11 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * FAQ: Update Answer 6 re getting a fully working
+ Mingw32 built library.
+
+2000-10-10 Steven Reddie <smr at essemer.com.au>
+
+ * misc.c (pthread_self): Restore Win32 "last error"
+ cleared by TlsGetValue() call in
+ pthread_getspecific()
+
+2000-09-20 Arthur Kantor <akantor at bexusa.com>
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_lock): Record the owner
+ of the mutex. This requires also keeping count of
+ recursive locks ourselves rather than leaving it
+ to Win32 since we need to know when to NULL the
+ thread owner when the mutex is unlocked.
+ (pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise.
+ (pthread_mutex_unlock): Check that the calling
+ thread owns the mutex, decrement the recursive
+ lock count, and NULL the owner if zero. Return
+ EPERM if the mutex is owned by another thread.
+ * implement.h (pthread_mutex_t_): Add ownerThread
+ and lockCount members.
+
+2000-09-13 Jef Gearhart <jgearhart at tpssys.com>
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Call
+ TryEnterCriticalSection through the pointer
+ rather than directly so that the dll can load
+ on Windows versions that can't resolve the
+ function, eg. Windows 95
+
+2000-09-09 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h (ctime_r): Fix arg.
+
+2000-09-08 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * GNUmakefile(_WIN32_WINNT=0x400): Define in CFLAGS;
+ doesn't seem to be needed though.
+
+ * cancel.c (pthread_cancel): Must get "self" through
+ calling pthread_self() which will ensure a POSIX thread
+ struct is built for non-POSIX threads; return an error
+ if this fails
+ - Ollie Leahy <ollie at mpt.ie>
+ (pthread_setcancelstate): Likewise.
+ (pthread_setcanceltype): Likewise.
+ * misc.c (ptw32_cancelable_wait): Likewise.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_tkAssocCreate): Remove unused #if 0
+ wrapped code.
+
+ * pthread.h (ptw32_get_exception_services_code):
+ Needed to be forward declared unconditionally.
+
+2000-09-06 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * cancel.c (pthread_cancel): If called from the main
+ thread "self" would be NULL; get "self" via pthread_self()
+ instead of directly from TLS so that an implicit
+ pthread object is created.
+
+ * misc.c (pthread_equal): Strengthen test for NULLs.
+
+2000-09-02 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * condvar.c (ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup): Ensure that all
+ waking threads check if they are the last, and notify
+ the broadcaster if so - even if an error occurs in the
+ waiter.
+
+ * semaphore.c (_decrease_semaphore): Should be
+ a call to ptw32_decrease_semaphore.
+ (_increase_semaphore): Should be a call to
+ ptw32_increase_semaphore.
+
+ * misc.c (ptw32_cancelable_wait): Renamed from
+ CancelableWait.
+ * rwlock.c (_rwlock_check*): Renamed to
+ ptw32_rwlock_check*.
+ * mutex.c (_mutex_check*): Renamed to ptw32_mutex_check*.
+ * condvar.c (cond_timed*): Renamed to ptw32_cond_timed*.

+ (ptw32_cond_timedwait): Add comments.
+
+2000-08-22 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_throw): Fix exception test;

+
+ * tsd.c (pthread_key_create): newkey wrongly declared.
+
+ * pthread.h: Fix comment block.
+
+2000-08-18 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_destroy): Check that the mutex isn't
+ held; invalidate the mutex as early as possible to avoid
+ contention; not perfect - FIXME!
+
+ * rwlock.c (pthread_rwlock_init): Remove redundant assignment
+ to "rw".
+ (pthread_rwlock_destroy): Invalidate the rwlock before
+ freeing up any of it's resources - to avoid contention.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_tkAssocCreate): Change assoc->lock
+ to use a dynamically initialised mutex - only consumes
+ a W32 mutex or critical section when first used,
+ not before.
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Remove redundant assignment
+ to "mx".
+ (pthread_mutexattr_destroy): Set attribute to NULL
+ before freeing it's memory - to avoid contention.
+
+ * implement.h (PTW32_EPS_CANCEL/PTW32_EPS_EXIT):
+ Must be defined for all compilers - used as generic
+ exception selectors by ptw32_throw().
+
+ * Several: Fix typos from scripted edit session
+ yesterday.
+
+ * nonportable.c (pthread_mutexattr_setforcecs_np):
+ Moved this function from mutex.c.
+ (pthread_getw32threadhandle_np): New function to
+ return the win32 thread handle that the POSIX
+ thread is using.
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutexattr_setforcecs_np):
+ Moved to new file "nonportable.c".
+
+ * pthread.h (PTW32_BUILD): Only redefine __except
+ and catch compiler keywords if we aren't building
+ the library (ie. PTW32_BUILD is not defined) -
+ this is safer than defining and then undefining
+ if not building the library.
+ * implement.h: Remove __except and catch undefines.
+ * Makefile (CFLAGS): Define PTW32_BUILD.
+ * GNUmakefile (CFLAGS): Define PTW32_BUILD.
+
+ * All appropriate: Change Pthread_exception* to
+ ptw32_exception* to be consistent with internal
+ identifier naming.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_throw): New function to provide
+ a generic exception throw for all internal
+ exceptions and EH schemes.
+ (ptw32_threadStart): pthread_exit() value is now
+ returned via the thread structure exitStatus
+ element.
+ * exit.c (pthread_exit): pthread_exit() value is now
+ returned via the thread structure exitStatus
+ element.
+ * cancel.c (ptw32_cancel_self): Now uses ptw32_throw.
+ (pthread_setcancelstate): Ditto.
+ (pthread_setcanceltype): Ditto.
+ (pthread_testcancel): Ditto.
+ (pthread_cancel): Ditto.
+ * misc.c (CancelableWait): Ditto.
+ * exit.c (pthread_exit): Ditto.
+ * All applicable: Change PTW32_ prefix to
+ PTW32_ prefix to remove leading underscores
+ from private library identifiers.
+
+2000-08-17 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * All applicable: Change _pthread_ prefix to
+ ptw32_ prefix to remove leading underscores
+ from private library identifiers (single
+ and double leading underscores are reserved in the
+ ANSI C standard for compiler implementations).
+
+ * tsd.c (pthread_create_key): Initialise temporary
+ key before returning it's address to avoid race
+ conditions.
+
+2000-08-13 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * errno.c: Add _MD precompile condition; thus far
+ had no effect when using /MD compile option but I
+ thnk it should be there.
+
+ * exit.c: Add __cplusplus to various #if lines;
+ was compiling SEH code even when VC++ had
+ C++ compile options.
+
+ * private.c: ditto.
+
+ * create.c (pthread_create): Add PT_STDCALL macro to
+ function pointer arg in _beginthread().
+
+ * pthread.h: PT_STDCALL really does need to be defined
+ in both this and impliment.h; don't set it to __cdecl
+ - this macro is only used to extend function pointer
+ casting for functions that will be passed as parameters.
+ (~PThreadCleanup): add cast and group expression.
+ (_errno): Add _MD compile conditional.
+ (PtW32NoCatchWarn): Change pragma message.
+
+ * implement.h: Move and change PT_STDCALL define.
+
+ * need_errno.h: Add _MD to compilation conditional.
+
+ * GNUmakefile: Substantial rewrite for new naming
+ convention; set for nil optimisation (turn it up
+ when we have a working library build; add target
+ "fake.a" to build a libpthreadw32.a from the VC++
+ built DLL pthreadVCE.dll.
+
+ * pthread.def (LIBRARY): Don't specify in the .def
+ file - it is specified on the linker command line
+ since we now use the same .def file for variously
+ named .dlls.
+
+ * Makefile: Substantial rewrite for new naming
+ convention; default nmake target only issues a
+ help message; run nmake with specific target
+ corresponding to the EH scheme being used.
+
+ * README: Update information; add naming convention
+ explanation.
+
+ * ANNOUNCE: Update information.
+
+2000-08-12 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h: Add compile-time message when using
+ MSC_VER compiler and C++ EH to warn application
+ programmers to use PtW32Catch instead of catch(...)
+ if they want cancelation and pthread_exit to work.
+
+ * implement.h: Remove #include <semaphore.h>; we
+ use our own local semaphore.h.
+
+2000-08-10 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * cleanup.c (pthread_pop_cleanup): Remove _pthread
+ prefix from __except and catch keywords; implement.h
+ now simply undefines ptw32__except and
+ ptw32_catch if defined; VC++ was not textually
+ substituting ptw32_catch etc back to catch as
+ it was redefined; the reason for using the prefixed
+ version was to make it clear that it was not using
+ the pthread.h redefined catch keyword.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Ditto.
+ (ptw32_callUserDestroyRoutines): Ditto.
+
+ * implement.h (ptw32__except): Remove #define.
+ (ptw32_catch): Remove #define.
+
+ * GNUmakefile (pthread.a): New target to build
+ libpthread32.a from pthread.dll using dlltool.
+
+ * buildlib.bat: Duplicate cl commands with args to
+ build C++ EH version of pthread.dll; use of .bat
+ files is redundant now that nmake compatible
+ Makefile is included; used as a kludge only now.
+
+ * Makefile: Localise some macros and fix up the clean:
+ target to extend it and work properly.
+
+ * CONTRIBUTORS: Add contributors.
+
+ * ANNOUNCE: Updated.
+
+ * README: Updated.
+
+2000-08-06 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h: Remove #warning - VC++ doesn't accept it.
+
+2000-08-05 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h (PtW32CatchAll): Add macro. When compiling
+ applications using VC++ with C++ EH rather than SEH
+ 'PtW32CatchAll' must be used in place of any 'catch( ... )'
+ if the application wants pthread cancelation or
+ pthread_exit() to work.
+
+2000-08-03 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h: Add a base class ptw32_exception for

+ re-define macro to use it.
+
+2000-08-02 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * GNUmakefile (CFLAGS): Add -mthreads.

+ * sync.c (pthread_join): Remove dead code.
+
+2000-07-25 Tristan Savatier <tristan at mpegtv.com>
+
+ * sched.c (sched_get_priority_max): Handle different WinCE and

+ (sched_get_priority_min): Ditto.
+
+2000-07-25 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * create.c (pthread_create): Force new threads to wait until
+ pthread_create has the new thread's handle; we also retain
+ a local copy of the handle for internal use until
+ pthread_create returns.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Initialise ei[].
+ (ptw32_threadStart): When beginthread is used to start the
+ thread, force waiting until the creator thread had the
+ thread handle.
+
+ * cancel.c (ptw32_cancel_thread): Include context switch
+ code for defined(_X86_) environments in addition to _M_IX86.
+
+ * rwlock.c (pthread_rwlock_destroy): Assignment changed
+ to avoid compiler warning.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_get_exception_services_code): Cast
+ NULL return value to avoid compiler warning.
+
+ * cleanup.c (pthread_pop_cleanup): Initialise "cleanup" variable
+ to avoid compiler warnings.
+
+ * misc.c (ptw32_new): Change "new" variable to "t" to avoid

+
+ * condvar.c (cond_wait_cleanup): Initialise lastWaiter variable.
+ (cond_timedwait): Remove unused local variables. to avoid
+ compiler warnings.
+
+ * dll.c (dllMain): Remove 2000-07-21 change - problem
+ appears to be in pthread_create().
+
+2000-07-22 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * tsd.c (pthread_key_create): If a destructor was given
+ and the pthread_mutex_init failed, then would try to
+ reference a NULL pointer (*key); eliminate this section of
+ code by using a dynamically initialised mutex
+ (PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER).
+
+ * tsd.c (pthread_setspecific): Return an error if
+ unable to set the value; simplify cryptic conditional.
+
+ * tsd.c (pthread_key_delete): Locking threadsLock relied
+ on mutex_lock returning an error if the key has no destructor.
+ ThreadsLock is only initialised if the key has a destructor.
+ Making this mutex a static could reduce the number of mutexes
+ used by an application since it is actually created only at
+ first use and it's often destroyed soon after.
+
+2000-07-22 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * FAQ: Added Q5 and Q6.
+
+2000-07-21 David Baggett <dmb at itasoftware.com>

+
+2000-07-21 Ross Johnson <rpj at setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * create.c (pthread_create): Set threadH to 0 (zero)
+ everywhere. Some assignments were using NULL. Maybe
+ it should be NULL everywhere - need to check. (I know
+ they are nearly always the same thing - but not by
+ definition.)
+
+ * misc.c (pthread_self): Try to catch NULL thread handles
+ at the point where they might be generated, even though
+ they should always be valid at this point.
+
+ * tsd.c (pthread_setspecific): return an error value if

+
+2000-01-28 Ross Johnson <rpj at special.ise.canberra.edu.au>

+
+ * pthread.h (ptw32_exception_services): Remove extern.
+ (ptw32_get_exception_services_code): Add function prototype;

+ Define '_timeb' as 'timeb' for Ming32.
+ Define PT_STDCALL as nothing for Mingw32. May be temporary.
+
+ * cancel.c (pthread_testcancel): Cast return value.
+
+Wed Jan 20 09:31:28 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h (pthread_mutexattr_t): Changed to a pointer.
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Conditionally create Win32 mutex
+ - from John Bossom's implementation.
+ (pthread_mutex_destroy): Conditionally close Win32 mutex
+ - from John Bossom's implementation.
+ (pthread_mutexattr_init): Replaced by John Bossom's version.
+ (pthread_mutexattr_destroy): Ditto.
+ (pthread_mutexattr_getpshared): New function from John Bossom's

+
+Tue Jan 19 18:27:42 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at swan.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h (pthreadCancelableTimedWait): New prototype.
+ (pthreadCancelableWait): Remove second argument.
+
+ * misc.c (CancelableWait): New static function is
+ pthreadCancelableWait() renamed.
+ (pthreadCancelableWait): Now just calls CancelableWait() with
+ INFINITE timeout.
+ (pthreadCancelableTimedWait): Just calls CancelableWait()
+ with passed in timeout.
+
+Tue Jan 19 18:27:42 1999 Scott Lightner <scott at curriculum.com>
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait): 'abstime' arg really is
+ absolute time. Calculate relative time to wait from current
+ time before passing timeout to new routine
+ pthreadCancelableTimedWait().
+
+Tue Jan 19 10:27:39 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h (pthread_mutexattr_setforcecs_np): New prototype.
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutexattr_init): Init 'pshared' and 'forcecs'
+ attributes to 0.
+ (pthread_mutexattr_setforcecs_np): New function (not portable).
+
+ * pthread.h (pthread_mutex_t):
+ Add 'mutex' element. Set to NULL in PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER.
+ The pthread_mutex_*() routines will try to optimise performance
+ by choosing either mutexes or critical sections as the basis
+ for pthread mutexes for each indevidual mutex.
+ (pthread_mutexattr_t_): Add 'forcecs' element.
+ Some applications may choose to force use of critical sections
+ if they know that:-
+ the mutex is PROCESS_PRIVATE and,
+ either the OS supports TryEnterCriticalSection() or
+ pthread_mutex_trylock() will never be called on the mutex.
+ This attribute will be setable via a non-portable routine.
+
+ Note: We don't yet support PROCESS_SHARED mutexes, so the
+ implementation as it stands will default to Win32 mutexes only if
+ the OS doesn't support TryEnterCriticalSection. On Win9x, and early
+ versions of NT 'forcecs' will need to be set in order to get
+ critical section based mutexes.
+
+Sun Jan 17 12:01:26 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h (PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER): Init new 'staticinit'
+ value to '1' and existing 'valid' value to '1'.
+
+ * global.c (ptw32_mutex_test_init_lock): Add.
+
+ * implement.h (ptw32_mutex_test_init_lock.): Add extern.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_processInitialize): Init critical section for
+ global lock used by _mutex_check_need_init().
+ (ptw32_processTerminate): Ditto (:s/Init/Destroy/).
+
+ * dll.c (dllMain): Move call to FreeLibrary() so that it is only
+ called once when the process detaches.
+
+ * mutex.c (_mutex_check_need_init): New static function to test
+ and init PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER mutexes. Provides serialised
+ access to the internal state of the uninitialised static mutex.
+ Called from pthread_mutex_trylock() and pthread_mutex_lock() which
+ do a quick unguarded test to check if _mutex_check_need_init()
+ needs to be called. This is safe as the test is conservative
+ and is repeated inside the guarded section of
+ _mutex_check_need_init(). Thus in all calls except the first
+ calls to lock static mutexes, the additional overhead to lock any
+ mutex is a single memory fetch and test for zero.
+
+ * pthread.h (pthread_mutex_t_): Add 'staticinit' member. Mutexes
+ initialised by PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER aren't really initialised
+ until the first attempt to lock it. Using the 'valid'
+ flag (which flags the mutex as destroyed or not) to record this
+ information would be messy. It is possible for a statically
+ initialised mutex such as this to be destroyed before ever being
+ used.
+
+ * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_trylock): Call _mutex_check_need_init()
+ to test/init PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER mutexes.
+ (pthread_mutex_lock): Ditto.
+ (pthread_mutex_unlock): Add check to ensure we don't try to unlock
+ an unitialised static mutex.
+ (pthread_mutex_destroy): Add check to ensure we don't try to delete
+ a critical section that we never created. Allows us to destroy
+ a static mutex that has never been locked (and hence initialised).
+ (pthread_mutex_init): Set 'staticinit' flag to 0 for the new mutex.
+
+Sun Jan 17 12:01:26 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait): Move from semaphore.c.
+
+ * semaphore.c : Remove redundant #includes.
+ (ptw32_sem_timedwait): Move to private.c.
+ (sem_wait): Add missing abstime arg to pthreadCancelableWait() call.
+
+Fri Jan 15 23:38:05 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * condvar.c (cond_timedwait): Remove comment.
+
+Fri Jan 15 15:41:28 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at swan.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h: Add new 'abstime' arg to pthreadCancelableWait()
+ prototype.
+
+ * condvar.c (cond_timedwait): New generalised function called by
+ both pthread_cond_wait() and pthread_cond_timedwait(). This is
+ essentially pthread_cond_wait() renamed and modified to add the
+ 'abstime' arg and call the new ptw32_sem_timedwait() instead of
+ sem_wait().
+ (pthread_cond_wait): Now just calls the internal static
+ function cond_timedwait() with an INFINITE wait.
+ (pthread_cond_timedwait): Now implemented. Calls the internal
+ static function cond_timedwait().
+
+ * implement.h (ptw32_sem_timedwait): New internal function
+ prototype.
+
+ * misc.c (pthreadCancelableWait): Added new 'abstime' argument
+ to allow shorter than INFINITE wait.
+
+ * semaphore.c (ptw32_sem_timedwait): New function for internal
+ use. This is essentially sem_wait() modified to add the
+ 'abstime' arg and call the modified (see above)
+ pthreadCancelableWait().
+
+Thu Jan 14 14:27:13 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at swan.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * cleanup.c: Correct _cplusplus to __cplusplus wherever used.
+
+ * Makefile.in: Add CC=g++ and add -fhandle-exceptions to CFLAGS.
+ The derived Makefile will compile all units of the package as C++
+ so that those which include try/catch exception handling should work
+ properly. The package should compile ok if CC=gcc, however, exception
+ handling will not be included and thus thread cancellation, for
+ example, will not work.
+
+ * cleanup.c (ptw32_pop_cleanup): Add #warning to compile this
+ file as C++ if using a cygwin32 environment. Perhaps the whole package
+ should be compiled using g++ under cygwin.
+
+ * private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Change #error directive
+ into #warning and bracket for __CYGWIN__ and derivative compilers.
+
+Wed Jan 13 09:34:52 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * build.bat: Delete old binaries before compiling/linking.
+
+Tue Jan 12 09:58:38 1999 Tor Lillqvist <tml at iki.fi>
+
+ * dll.c: The Microsoft compiler pragmas probably are more
+ appropriately protected by _MSC_VER than by _WIN32.
+
+ * pthread.h: Define ETIMEDOUT. This should be returned by
+ pthread_cond_timedwait which is not implemented yet as of
+ snapshot-1999-01-04-1305. It was implemented in the older version.
+ The Microsoft compiler pragmas probably are more appropriately
+ protected by _MSC_VER than by _WIN32.
+
+ * pthread.def: pthread_mutex_destroy was missing from the def file
+
+ * condvar.c (pthread_cond_broadcast): Ensure we only wait on threads
+ if there were any waiting on the condition.
+ I think pthread_cond_broadcast should do the WaitForSingleObject
+ only if cv->waiters > 0? Otherwise it seems to hang, at least in the
+ testg thread program from glib.
+
+Tue Jan 12 09:58:38 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * condvar.c (pthread_cond_timedwait): Fix function description
+ comments.
+
+ * semaphore.c (sem_post): Correct typo in comment.
+
+Mon Jan 11 20:33:19 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * pthread.h: Re-arrange conditional compile of pthread_cleanup-*
+ macros.
+
+ * cleanup.c (ptw32_push_cleanup): Provide conditional
+ compile of cleanup->prev.
+
+1999-01-11 Tor Lillqvist <tml at iki.fi>
+
+ * condvar.c (pthread_cond_init): Invert logic when testing the
+ return value from calloc().
+
+Sat Jan 9 14:32:08 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * implement.h: Compile-time switch for CYGWIN derived environments
+ to use CreateThread instead of _beginthreadex. Ditto for ExitThread.
+ Patch provided by Anders Norlander <anorland at hem2.passagen.se>.
+
+Tue Jan 5 16:33:04 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at swan.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * cleanup.c (ptw32_pop_cleanup): Add C++ version of __try/__except
+ block. Move trailing "}" out of #ifdef _WIN32 block left there by
+ (rpj's) mistake.
+
+ * private.c: Remove #include <errno.h> which is included by pthread.h.
+
+1998-12-11 Ben Elliston <bje at toilet.to.cygnus.com>
+
+ * README: Update info about subscribing to the mailing list.
+
+Mon Jan 4 11:23:40 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj at ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>
+
+ * all: No code changes, just cleanup.
+ - remove #if 0 /* Pre Bossom */ enclosed code.
+ - Remove some redundant #includes.
+ * pthread.h: Update implemented/unimplemented routines list.
+ * Tag the bossom merge branch getting ready to merge back to main
+ trunk.

+ In the WIN32 version __finally block, add a test for AbnormalTermination otherwise
+ cleanup is only run if the cleanup_pop execute arg is non-zero. Cancellation

+ that attribute instead of a separate flag.
+
+ * create.c (pthread_create): Rename "this" to "us".
+ (pthread_create): cancelstate and canceltype are not attributes
