2000-09-072000-09-08 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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@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@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.
2000-09-022000-09-02 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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. (cond_wait_cleanup*): Rename to ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup*. (ptw32_cond_timedwait): Add comments.
2000-09-022000-09-02 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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*. (_cond_check*): Renamed to ptw32_cond_check*.

2000-08-222000-08-22 Ross Johnson <rpj@setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* private.c (ptw32_throw): Fix exception test; move exceptionInformation declaration. * tsd.c (pthread_key_create): newkey wrongly declared. * pthread.h: Fix comment block.
2000-08-21Add explanation of internal name changes.rpj
2000-08-182000-08-18 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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.
2000-08-182000-08-18 Ross Johnson <rpj@setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* implement.h (PTW32_EPS_CANCEL/PTW32_EPS_EXIT): Must be defined for all compilers - used as generic exception selectors by ptw32_throw().
2000-08-182000-08-18 Ross Johnson <rpj@setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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.
2000-08-17Removed obsolete files.rpj
2000-08-172000-08-17 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* create2.c: New; Test that pthread_t contains the W32 HANDLE before it calls the thread routine proper.
2000-08-172000-08-17 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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).
2000-08-172000-08-17 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* tsd.c (pthread_create_key): Initialise temporary key before returning it's address to avoid race conditions.

2000-08-142000-08-13 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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@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. tests/ChangeLog: 2000-08-13 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * condvar3.c: Minor change to eliminate compiler warning. * condvar4.c: ditto. * condvar5.c: ditto. * condvar6.c: ditto. * condvar7.c: ditto. * condvar8.c: ditto. * condvar9.c: ditto. * exit1.c: Function needed return statement. * cleanup1.c: Remove unnecessary printf arg. * cleanup2.c: Fix cast. * rwlock6.c: Fix casts. * exception1.c (PtW32CatchAll): Had the wrong name; fix casts. * cancel3.c: Remove unused waitLock variable. * GNUmakefile: Change library/dll naming; add new tests; general minor changes. * Makefile: Change library/dll naming; add targets for testing each of the two VC++ EH scheme versions; default target now issues help message; compile warnings now interpreted as errors to stop the make; add new tests; restructure to remove prerequisites needed otherwise. * README: Updated.

2000-08-112000-08-10 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>snap-2000-08-10rpj
* cleanup.c (pthread_pop_cleanup): Remove _pthread prefix from __except and catch keywords; implement.h now simply undefines _pthread__except and _pthread_catch if defined; VC++ was not textually substituting _pthread_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 (_pthread_threadStart): Ditto. (_pthread_callUserDestroyRoutines): Ditto. * implement.h (_pthread__except): Remove #define. (_pthread_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. tests/ChangeLog: 2000-08-10 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * eyal1.c (main): Change implicit cast to explicit cast when passing "print_server" function pointer; G++ no longer allows implicit func parameter casts. * cleanup1.c: Remove unused "waitLock". (main): Fix implicit parameter cast. * cancel2.c (main): Fix implicit parameter cast. * cancel4.c (main): Fix implicit parameter cast. * cancel3.c (main): Fix implicit parameter cast. * GNUmakefile: Renamed from Makefile; Add missing cancel1 and cancel2 test targets. * Makefile: Converted for use with MS nmake.

* pthread.h: Remove #warning - VC++ doesn't accept it. 2000-08-05 Ross Johnson <rpj@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@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * pthread.h: Add a base class Pthread_exception for library internal exceptions and change the "catch" re-define macro to use it. 2000-08-02 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * GNUmakefile (CFLAGS): Add -mthreads. Add new targets to generate cpp and asm output. * sync.c (pthread_join): Remove dead code. tests: 2000-08-06 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * ccl.bat: Add /nologo to remove extraneous output. * exception1.c (exceptionedThread): Init 'dummy'; put expression into if condition to prevent optimising away; remove unused variable. * cancel4.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * cancel2.c (mythread): Missing #endif. * condvar9.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * condvar8.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * condvar7.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * cleanup3.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * cleanup2.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * cleanup1.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * condvar5.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * condvar3.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * condvar6.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. * condvar4.c (mythread): Cast return value to avoid warnings. 2000-08-05 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * cancel2.c: Use PtW32CatchAll macro if defined. * exception1.c: Use PtW32CatchAll macro if defined. 2000-08-02 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * tsd1.c: Fix typecasts of &result [g++ is now very fussy]. * test.h (assert): Return 0's explicitly to allay g++ errors. * join2.c: Add explicit typecasts. * join1.c: Add explicit typecasts. * join0.c: Add explicit typecasts. * eyal1.c: Add explicit typecasts. * count1.c (main): Add type cast to remove g++ parse warning [gcc-2.95.2 seems to have tightened up on this]. * Makefile (GLANG): Use c++ explicitly. Remove MSVC sections (was commented out). Add target to generate cpp output.

* sched.c (sched_get_priority_max): Handle different WinCE and Win32 priority values together. (sched_get_priority_min): Ditto. - Tristan Savatier <tristan@mpegtv.com> * 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 (_pthread_threadStart): Initialise ei[]. (_pthread_threadStart): When beginthread is used to start the thread, force waiting until the creator thread had the thread handle. * cancel.c (_pthread_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 (_pthread_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 (_pthread_new): Change "new" variable to "t" to avoid confusion with the C++ keyword of the same name. * 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@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@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * FAQ: Added Q5 and Q6. tests/ChangeLog: 2000-07-25 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * runtest.bat: modified to work under W98. * runall.bat: Add new tests; modified to work under W98. It was ok under NT. * Makefile: Add new tests. * exception1.c: New; Test passing exceptions back to the application and retaining library internal exceptions. * join0.c: New; Test a single join.

* dll.c (dllMain): Remove 2000-07-21 change - problem appears to be in pthread_create(). 2000-07-21 Ross Johnson <rpj@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.) * dll.c: Include resource leakage work-around. This is a partial FIXME which doesn't stop all leakage. The real problem needs to be found and fixed. - "David Baggett" <dmb@itasoftware.com> * 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 pthread_self() returns NULL. * sync.c (pthread_join): return an error value if pthread_self() returns NULL. * signal.c (pthread_sigmask): return an error value if pthread_self() returns NULL.
