Commit Message

Adhemerval Zanella June 27, 2017, 6:31 p.m. UTC
This patch adds the thrd_* definitions from C11 threads (ISO/IEC 9899:2011),
more specifically thrd_create, thrd_curent, rhd_detach, thrd_equal,
thrd_exit, thrd_join, thrd_sleep, thrd_yield, and required types.

Mostly of the definitions are composed based on POSIX conterparts, such as
thrd_t (using pthread_t).  For thrd_* function internally direct
POSIX pthread call are used with the exceptions:

  1. thrd_start uses pthread_create internal implementation, but changes
     how to actually calls the start routine.  This is due the difference
     in signature between POSIX and C11, where former return a 'void *'
     and latter 'int'.
     To avoid calling convention issues due 'void *' to int cast, routines
     from C11 threads are started slight different than default pthread one.
     Explicit cast to expected return are used internally on pthread_create
     and the result is stored back to void also with an explicit cast.

  2. thrd_sleep uses nanosleep internal direct syscall to avoid clobbering
     errno, to handle expected standard return codes, and to avoid making
     the call a POSIX cancellation entrypoint.

  3. thrd_yield also uses internal direct syscall to avoid errno clobbering.

Checked with a build for all major ABI (aarch64-linux-gnu, alpha-linux-gnu,
arm-linux-gnueabi, i386-linux-gnu, ia64-linux-gnu, m68k-linux-gnu,
microblaze-linux-gnu [1], mips{64}-linux-gnu, nios2-linux-gnu,
powerpc{64le}-linux-gnu, s390{x}-linux-gnu, sparc{64}-linux-gnu,
tile{pro,gx}-linux-gnu, and x86_64-linux-gnu).

Also ran a full check on aarch64-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu,
arm-linux-gnueabhf, and powerpc64le-linux-gnu.

	* conform/Makefile (conformtest-headers-ISO11): Add threads.h.
	(linknamespace-libs-ISO11): Add libpthread.a.
	* conform/data/threads.h-data: New file: add C11 thrd_* types and
	functions.
	* include/stdc-predef.h (__STDC_NO_THREADS__): Remove definition.
	* nptl/Makefile (headers): Add threads.h.
	(libpthread-routines): Add new C11 thread thrd_create, thrd_current,
	thrd_detach, thrd_equal, thrd_exit, thrd_join, thrd_sleep, and
	thrd_yield.
	* nptl/Versions (libpthread) [GLIBC_2.26]): Add new C11 thread
	thrd_create, thrd_current, thrd_detach, thrd_equal, thrd_exit,
	thrd_join, thrd_sleep, and thrd_yield symbols.
	* nptl/descr.h (struct pthread): Add c11 field.
	* nptl/pthreadP.h (ATTR_C11_THREAD): New define.
	* nptl/pthread_create.c (START_THREAD_DEFN): Call C11 thread start
	routine with expected function prototype.
	(__pthread_create_2_1): Add C11 threads check based on attribute
	value.
	* nptl/thrd_create.c: New file.
	* nptl/thrd_current.c: Likewise.
	* nptl/thrd_detach.c: Likewise.
	* nptl/thrd_equal.c: Likewise.
	* nptl/thrd_exit.c: Likewise.
	* nptl/thrd_join.c: Likewise.
	* nptl/thrd_priv.h: Likewise.
	* nptl/thrd_sleep.c: Likewise.
	* nptl/thrd_yield.c: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/nptl/threads.h: Likewise.
