Rich Felker 8bb0e48889 match dimensions so we can use all slots without invoking OOB-array-access 2011-03-11 10:02:17 -05:00
Rich Felker 243b542382 implement dummy pthread_attr_[gs]etschedparam functions
for some reason these functions are not shaded by the PS/TPS option in
POSIX, so presumably they are mandatory, even though the functionality
they offer is optional. for now, provide them in case any programs
depend on their existence, but disallow any priority except the
default.

Rich Felker 682a0f271f fix failure behavior of sem_open when sem does not exist 2011-03-10 22:05:16 -05:00
Rich Felker cfe581b6bc fix some semaphore wait semantics (race condition deadlock and error checking) 2011-03-10 21:52:18 -05:00
Rich Felker 81af503610 fix sem_open and sem_close to obey posix semantics
multiple opens of the same named semaphore must return the same
pointer, and only the last close can unmap it. thus the ugly global
state keeping track of mappings. the maximum number of distinct named
semaphores that can be opened is limited sufficiently small that the
linear searches take trivial time, especially compared to the syscall
overhead of these functions.

Rich Felker 5fcebcde6a optimize pthread termination in the non-detached case
we can avoid blocking signals by simply using a flag to mark that the
thread has exited and prevent it from getting counted in the rsyscall
signal-pingpong. this restores the original pthread create/join
throughput from before the sigprocmask call was added.
2011-03-10 18:31:37 -05:00
Rich Felker dc54a7cbb9 fix errors in sigqueue (potential information leak, wrong behavior)
1. any padding in the siginfo struct was not necessarily zero-filled,
so it might have contained private data off the caller's stack.

2. the uid and pid must be filled in from userspace. the previous
rsyscall fix broke rsyscalls because the values were always incorrect.
2011-03-10 18:26:29 -05:00
Rich Felker 52213f7341 security fix: check that cancel/rsyscall signal was sent by the process itself 2011-03-10 11:59:39 -05:00
Rich Felker 11dbbe9fba more cancellation points: tcdrain, clock_nanosleep 2011-03-10 11:06:50 -05:00
Rich Felker c8c4ef7d44 remove useless return value checks for functions that cannot fail 2011-03-10 11:02:29 -05:00
Rich Felker 0f8cc94d68 make sigsuspend a cancellation point 2011-03-10 11:01:11 -05:00
Rich Felker 5b9429adb7 make sigtimedwait a cancellation point 2011-03-10 10:59:50 -05:00
Rich Felker 0a949ebdf0 don't fail with EINTR in sigtimedwait
POSIX allows either behavior, but sigwait is not allowed to fail with
EINTR, so the retry loop would have to be in one or the other anyway.
2011-03-10 10:43:09 -05:00
Rich Felker 0558683d3d fix sigsuspend syscall 2011-03-10 10:26:16 -05:00
Rich Felker 6871fd773d make sigaltstack work (missing macros in signal.h, error conditions) 2011-03-10 10:17:29 -05:00
Rich Felker 1b538acb0a fix errno behavior in clock_* functions
these functions are specified inconsistent in whether they're
specified to return an error value, or return -1 and set errno.
hopefully now they all match what POSIX requires.
2011-03-10 09:54:23 -05:00
Rich Felker 500c969f05 fix error handling for pthread_sigmask
it must return errno, not -1, and should reject invalud values for how.
2011-03-09 20:31:06 -05:00
Rich Felker 3f5420bcda make fork properly initialize the main thread in the child process 2011-03-09 20:23:44 -05:00
Rich Felker 6dc05fbe19 optimize pthread initialization
the set_tid_address returns the tid (which is also the pid when called
from the initial thread) so there is no need to make a separate
syscall to get pid/tid.
2011-03-09 20:21:23 -05:00
Rich Felker 0bed7e0acf fix race condition in raise - just mask signals
a signal handler could fork after the pid/tid were read, causing the
wrong process to be signalled. i'm not sure if this is supposed to
have UB or not, but raise is async-signal-safe, so it probably is
allowed. the current solution is slightly expensive so this
implementation is likely to be changed in the future.

Rich Felker 91f7db2621 fix typos in dirent.h 2011-03-08 17:34:26 -05:00
Rich Felker ac12eb91bd fcntl.h should make availabel the mode constants from sys/stat.h
also remove some legacy nonsense that crept in.

Rich Felker 31e06075d5 simplify and optimize pthread_mutex_trylock 2011-03-08 12:20:10 -05:00
Rich Felker e5dd18319b rwlock trylock functions were wrongly returning EAGAIN instead of EBUSY 2011-03-08 12:19:30 -05:00
Rich Felker 7e6be42a77 fix major breakage in pthread_once (it was always deadlocking)
the issue was a break statement that was breaking only from the
switch, not the enclosing for loop, and a failure to set the final
success state.
2011-03-08 12:08:40 -05:00
Rich Felker 4820f9268d fix and optimize non-default-type mutex behavior
problem 1: mutex type from the attribute was being ignored by
pthread_mutex_init, so recursive/errorchecking mutexes were never
being used at all.

problem 2: ownership of recursive mutexes was not being enforced at
unlock time.

Rich Felker b4d40e44e3 implement pthread_condattr_* interfaces
note that, while the attributes are stored, they are not used in
pthread_cond_init yet.
2011-03-07 16:20:12 -05:00
Rich Felker 63b06c0e90 reject invalid attribute settings
note that this is a pedantic conformance issue and waste of code. it
only affects broken code or code that is probing for conformance.
