* 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. * private.c (_pthread_sem_timedwait): 'abstime' arg really is absolute time. Calculate relative time to wait from current time before passing timeout to new routine pthreadCancelableTimedWait(). - Scott Lightner <scott@curriculum.com>

* private.c (_pthread_sem_timedwait): Move from semaphore.c. * semaphore.c : Remove redundant #includes. (_pthread_sem_timedwait): Move to private.c. (sem_wait): Add missing abstime arg to pthreadCancelableWait() call. 1999-01-17 Ross Johnson <rpj@ise.canberra.edu.au> * runtest: New script to build and run a test in the tests directory.
1999-01-14Fri Jan 15 15:41:28 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj@swan.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* 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 _pthread_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 (_pthread_sem_timedwait): New internal function prototype. * misc.c (pthreadCancelableWait): Added new 'abstime' argument to allow shorter than INFINITE wait. * semaphore.c (_pthread_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().

* 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 (_pthread_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 (_pthread_threadStart): Change #error directive into #warning and bracket for __CYGWIN__ and derivative compilers.

* build.bat: Delete old binaries before compiling/linking. Tue Jan 12 09:58:38 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj@ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> * dll.c: The Microsoft compiler pragmas probably are more appropriately protected by _MSC_VER than by _WIN32. - Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>. * condvar.c (pthread_cond_timedwait): Fix function description comments. * 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. - Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>. * pthread.def: pthread_mutex_destroy was missing from the def file - Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>. * 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. - Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>. * semaphore.c (sem_post): Correct typo in comment. Mon Jan 11 20:33:19 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj@ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> * pthread.h: Re-arrange conditional compile of pthread_cleanup-* macros. * cleanup.c (_pthread_push_cleanup): Provide conditional compile of cleanup->prev.
1999-01-101999-01-11 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* condvar.c (pthread_cond_init): Invert logic when testing the return value from calloc().
1999-01-08Sat Jan 9 14:32:08 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj@ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au>rpj
* implement.h: Compile-time switch for CYGWIN derived environments to use CreateThread instead of _beginthreadex. Ditto for ExitThread. Patch provided by Anders Norlander <anorland@hem2.passagen.se>.
1999-01-04Parts of this package are going to have to be C++ in the GNU world because werpj
now use exception handling to implement thread cancellation. The MSC compiler appears to know about __try/__except blocks, but gcc (ie. the GNU ANSI C compiler) doesn't know about the equivalent C++ try/catch blocks. This should not be a problem since gcc and g++ are nearly always available together. Some file names may need to change in the CVS repository however. Tue Jan 5 16:33:04 1999 Ross Johnson <rpj@swan.canberra.edu.au> * cleanup.c (_pthread_pop_cleanup): Add C++ version of __try/__except block. Move trailing "}" out of #ifdef _WIN32 block left there by (my) mistake. * private.c: Remove #include <errno.h> which is included by pthread.h.
1999-01-03Merge John Bossom's code into the main trunk. See ChangeLog for details.snapshot-1999-01-04-1305rpj

1998-12-06As well as patches from Anders, this commit includes some older changesrpj
that hadn't been checked in. Those are to finish off the original TSD management scheme which will now start to be replaced by John Bossom's implementation. Anders' description of his changes:- Fixes the problem with `TryEnterCriticalSection' on w95 systems. Instead of directly calling `TryEnterCriticalSection' it tries to get a pointer at DLL startup and only calls the function if it exists. See ChangeLog for things changed. 1998-12-05 Anders Norlander <anorland@hem2.passagen.se> * implement.h (_pthread_try_enter_critical_section): New extern * dll.c (_pthread_try_enter_critical_section): New pointer to TryEnterCriticalSection if it exists; otherwise NULL. * dll.c (PthreadsEntryPoint): Initialize _pthread_try_enter_critical_section at startup and release kernel32 handle when DLL is being unloaded. * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_trylock): Replaced check for NT with a check if _pthread_try_enter_critical_section is valid pointer to a function. Call _pthread_try_enter_critical_section instead of TryEnterCriticalSection to avoid errors on Win95. Sun Nov 15 21:24:06 1998 Ross Johnson <rpj@ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> * cleanup.c (_pthread_destructor_run_all): Declare missing void * arg. Fixup CVS merge conflicts. Fri Oct 30 15:15:50 1998 Ross Johnson <rpj@swan.canberra.edu.au> * cleanup.c (_pthread_handler_push): Fixed bug appending new handler to list reported by Peter Slacik <Peter.Slacik@leibinger.freinet.de>. (new_thread): Rename poorly named local variable to "new_handler". Sat Oct 24 18:34:59 1998 Ross Johnson <rpj@ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> * global.c: Add TSD key management array and index declarations. * implement.h: Ditto for externs. Fri Oct 23 00:08:09 1998 Ross Johnson <rpj@ixobrychus.canberra.edu.au> * implement.h (_PTHREAD_TSD_KEY_REUSE): Add enum. * private.c (_pthread_delete_thread): Add call to _pthread_destructor_run_all() to clean up the threads keys. * cleanup.c (_pthread_destructor_run_all): Check for no more dirty keys to run destructors on. Assume that the destructor call always succeeds and set the key value to NULL.
1998-10-291998-10-30 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* condvar.c (cond_wait): Fix semantic error. Test for equality instead of making an assignment.

1998-10-061998-10-06 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* condvar.c (cond_wait): Use POSIX, not Win32 mutex calls. (pthread_cond_broadcast): Likewise. (pthread_cond_signal): Likewise.
1998-10-041998-10-05 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* pthread.def: Update. Some functions aren't available yet, others are macros in <pthread.h>. * tests/join.c: Remove; useless.

* global.c (PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER): Move to pthread.h. * pthread.h (PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER): Define. (pthread_mutex_t): Reimplement as a struct containing a valid flag. If the flag is ever down upon entry to a mutex operation, we call pthread_mutex_create() to initialise the object. This fixes the problem of how to handle statically initialised objects that can't call InitializeCriticalSection() due to their context. * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Set valid flag.

1998-10-041998-10-04 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* configure.in: Test for __stdcall, not _stdcall. Typo. * configure: Regenerate.
1998-10-041998-10-04 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* attr.c (pthread_attr_setstackaddr): Remove FIXME comment. Win32 does know about ENOSYS after all. (pthread_attr_setstackaddr): Likewise.

1998-10-031998-10-03 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Correct function signature.
1998-10-031998-10-03 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* attr.c (pthread_attr_init): Only zero out the `sigmask' member if we have the sigset_t type. * pthread.h (pthread_sigmask): Only provide if we have the sigset_t type.
1998-10-031998-10-03 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* pthread.h: No need to include <unistd.h>. It doesn't even exist on Win32! Again, an artifact of cross-compilation.
1998-10-031998-10-03 Ben Elliston <bje@cygnus.com>bje
* process.h: Remove. This was a stand-in before we started doing native compilation under Win32. * pthread.h (pthread_mutex_init): Make `attr' argument const.
