Remove unused autoconf files;
Add the file COPYING, which describes the pthread-win32 license
relative to the FSF LGPL.

* create.c (pthread_create): Add priority inheritance
attributes.
* mutex.c (pthread_mutex_lock): Remove some overhead for
PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL mutex types. Specifically, avoid
calling pthread_self() and pthread_equal() to check/set
the mutex owner. Introduce a new pseudo owner for this
type. Test results suggest increases in speed of up to
90% for non-blocking locks.
This is the default type of mutex used internally by other
synchronising objects, ie. condition variables and
read-write locks. The test rwlock7.c shows about a
30-35% speed increase over snapshot 2001-06-06. The
price of this is that the application developer
must ensure correct behaviour, or explicitly set the
mutex to a safer type such as PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK.
For example, PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL (or PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT)
type mutexes will not return an error if a thread which is not
the owner calls pthread_mutex_unlock. The call will succeed
in unlocking the mutex if it is currently locked, but a
subsequent unlock by the true owner will then fail with EPERM.
This is however consistent with some other implementations.
(pthread_mutex_unlock): Likewise.
(pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise.
(pthread_mutex_destroy): Likewise.
* attr.c (pthread_attr_init): PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED is the
default inheritance attribute; THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL is
the default priority for new threads.
* sched.c (pthread_attr_setschedpolicy): Added routine.
(pthread_attr_getschedpolicy): Added routine.
(pthread_attr_setinheritsched): Added routine.
(pthread_attr_getinheritsched): Added routine.
* pthread.h (sched_rr_set_interval): Added as a macro;
returns -1 with errno set to ENOSYS.
2001-06-23 Ross Johnson <rpj@setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
*sched.c (pthread_attr_setschedparam): Add priority range
check.
(sched_setscheduler): New function; checks for a valid
pid and policy; checks for permission to set information
in the target process; expects pid to be a Win32 process ID,
not a process handle; the only scheduler policy allowed is
SCHED_OTHER.
(sched_getscheduler): Likewise, but checks for permission
to query.
* pthread.h (SCHED_*): Moved to sched.h as defined in the
POSIX standard.
* sched.h (SCHED_*): Moved from pthread.h.
(pid_t): Defined if necessary.
(sched_setscheduler): Defined.
(sched_getscheduler): Defined.
* pthread.def (sched_setscheduler): Exported.
(sched_getscheduler): Likewise.

* create.c (pthread_create): Set thread priority from
thread attributes.

* Makefile: Back-out "for" loops which don't work.
* GNUmakefile: Remove the fake.a target; add the "realclean"
target; don't remove built libs under the "clean" target.
* config.h: Add a guard against multiple inclusion.
* semaphore.h: Add some defines from config.h to make
semaphore.h independent of config.h when building apps.
* pthread.h (_errno): Back-out previous fix until we know how to
fix it properly.
* implement.h (lockCount): Add missing element to pthread_mutex_t_.
* sync.c (pthread_join): Spelling fix in comment.
* private.c (ptw32_threadStart): Reset original termination
function (C++).
(ptw32_threadStart): Cleanup detached threads early in case
the library is statically linked.
(ptw32_callUserDestroyRoutines): Remove [SEH] __try block from
destructor call so that unhandled exceptions will be passed through
to the system; call terminate() from [C++] try block for the same
reason.
* tsd.c (pthread_getspecific): Add comment.
* mutex.c (pthread_mutex_init): Initialise new elements in
pthread_mutex_t.
(pthread_mutex_unlock): Invert "pthread_equal()" test.
2000-12-28 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
* semaphore.c (mode_t): Use ifndef HAVE_MODE_T to include definition.
* config.h.in (HAVE_MODE_T): Added.
(_UWIN): Start adding defines for the UWIN package.
./tests/ChangeLog:
2000-12-29 Ross Johnson <rpj@special.ise.canberra.edu.au>
* GNUmakefile: Add mutex4 test; ensure libpthreadw32.a is
removed for "clean" target.
* Makefile: Add mutex4 test.
* exception3.c: Remove SEH code; automatically pass the test
under SEH (which is an N/A environment).
* mutex4.c: New test.
* eyal1.c (do_work_unit): Add a dummy "if" to force the
optimiser to retain code; reduce thread work loads.
* condvar8.c (main): Add an additional "assert" for debugging;
increase pthread_cond_signal timeout.

* misc.c (pthread_self): Restore Win32 "last error"
cleared by TlsGetValue() call in
pthread_getspecific()
- "Steven Reddie" <smr@essemer.com.au>
2000-09-20 Ross Johnson <rpj@setup1.ise.canberra.edu.au>
* mutex.c (pthread_mutex_lock): Record the owner
of the mutex. This requires also keeping count of
recursive locks ourselves rather than leaving it
to Win32 since we need to know when to NULL the
thread owner when the mutex is unlocked.
(pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise.
(pthread_mutex_unlock): Check that the calling
thread owns the mutex, decrement the recursive
lock count, and NULL the owner if zero. Return
EPERM if the mutex is owned by another thread.
* implement.h (pthread_mutex_t_): Add ownerThread
and lockCount members.
