a timer, as that will clear the timer instead. Pass in a safely in-the-past
value instead.
Addresses PR lib/28700.
(XXX passing in values between 0 and 1000 nanoseconds will still fail, but
that bug needs to be fixed in timer_settime(), not here)
- statically initialize all global spin locks. on hppa, 0 means
the lock is held, so leaving them with the default value doesn't work.
- compare functions pointers using a function-pointer type rather than
an integral type. on hppa, function pointers may be indirect,
so we need to trigger gcc to emit calls to the function-pointer
canonicalization routines in the millicode.
- on hppa the stack grows up, so handle that using the STACK_* macros.
- enable concurrency according to environment variable PTHREAD_CONCURRENCY
- add idle VP wakeup if there are additional jobs and idle VPs
- make reidlequeue per VP
- enable spinning for locks
- fix race condition in alarm processing
- fix race condition in mutex locking
- make debugging output line buffered and add VP prefix to debug lines
