+ + * 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() |
