* 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].

* 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*.

* 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.

* 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).

* 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.
