* 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 Ross Johnson <rpj@setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au> Contributed by - Milan Gardian <Milan.Gardian@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 Ross Johnson <rpj@setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au> Contributed by - Thomas Pfaff <tpfaff@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 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> Contributed by - Alexander Terekhov <TEREKHOV@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].

2000-12-28 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * 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@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * FAQ: Update Answer 6 re getting a fully working Mingw32 built library. 2000-09-09 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * pthread.h (ctime_r): Fix arg. ./tests/ChangeLog: 2000-12-28 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * eyal1.c: Increase thread work loads. * exception2.c: New test. * exception3.c: New test. * Makefile: Add new tests exception2.c and exception3.c. * GNUmakefile: Likewise. 2000-12-11 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au> * cleanup3.c: Remove unused variable. * cleanup2.c: Likewise. * exception1.c: Throw an exception rather than use a deliberate zero divide so that catch(...) will handle it under Mingw32. Mingw32 now builds the library correctly to pass all tests - see Thomas Pfaff's detailed instructions re needed changes to Mingw32 in the Pthreads-Win32 FAQ.

* 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.

* 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).

* 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.

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.

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.
