jruoho 6218b6cbdb Xref pthread_attr_getschedparam(3) and sched(3). Use a list for clarity. 2010-07-07 16:07:10 +00:00
jruoho edddb28a67 Split pthread_attr_getschedparam() and pthread_attr_setschedparam() to a 
separate page.
 2010-07-07 16:04:19 +00:00
jruoho cf6053f7b6 Split pthread_attr_getinheritsched() and pthread_attr_setinheritsched() to a 
separate page, and actually document these.
 2010-07-07 15:30:32 +00:00
jruoho 904af291c8 Move pthread_attr_getguardsize() and pthread_attr_setguardsize() to a 
separate page, and actually document these.
 2010-07-07 13:04:20 +00:00
jruoho 40267ee9ae Fix some minor errors/typos and clarify. 2010-07-07 12:49:15 +00:00
jruoho 2bf45345db Move the thread stack attribute functions to a separate page. In addition, 
document pthread_attr_getstack() and pthread_attr_setstack(). Try to also
document these a little better (in particular, note some items in the long
list of caveats and questions related to application-controlled thread stack).

njoly 0eab175c82 Add missing list end. 2010-07-07 10:22:33 +00:00
wiz c4ed068736 Sort sections. 2010-07-07 09:54:07 +00:00
jruoho dbb0e63cfb Split pthread_attr_getdetachstate(3) and pthread_attr_setdetachstate(3) to a 
separate page. Once ready, the main page, pthread_attr(3), will contain a
summary of the various thread attribute functions.
 2010-07-07 08:57:36 +00:00
jruoho 7f32058c79 Remove pthread_attr_getscope() and pthread_attr_setscope(). 2010-07-07 08:41:11 +00:00
jruoho 69ff1aa9c5 Move pthread_attr_{g,s}etscope() to a separate page and try to document 
these better. Should fix PR lib/41831 from Wolfgang Stukenbrock.

XXX: Please proofread.

njoly aab619738e Add missing list end. 2010-07-06 23:15:47 +00:00
jruoho 6a595a491d Same here; fix LIBRARY, add COMPATIBILITY/ERRORS, etc. 2010-07-06 22:24:56 +00:00
jruoho ae0626ba0d Fix LIBRARY. Add ERRORS and COMPATIBILITY. And some small improvements. 2010-07-06 21:54:12 +00:00
jruoho 935deb263f Document pthread_attr_get_np(). Fixes PR lib/39289 from ahoka@. 2010-07-06 21:36:34 +00:00
dholland 4035b6ee7d Improve wording describing the behavior of the attributes argument, and 
add reference to pthread_attr(3), as requested in PR 42871. The text
added is different from but based on a suggestion by Matthew Mondor.
 2010-06-07 04:36:34 +00:00
jruoho ebe1a1a443 Use a list with the mutex type. Note, from the standard, that recursive 
mutexes should be avoided when condition variables are used.
 2010-05-20 05:19:29 +00:00
jruoho f395ce5a84 Use similar markup than in pthread_mutex_init(3) etc. with the initializer 
macro. Improve wording slightly.
 2010-05-20 04:47:38 +00:00
jruoho 128d933f6d .Fa -> .Fn. 2010-05-20 04:41:11 +00:00
jruoho 6e31029d91 Note the initializer macros. 2010-05-20 04:40:23 +00:00
jruoho 9bfaa34d66 Build links for rest of the pthread_attr(3) functions. 
Hopefully I got all of them right in the setlist...

jruoho cd2244d3a2 Xref timespec(3). 2010-05-18 06:31:17 +00:00
jruoho 9127e9f198 .Dv. 2010-05-16 12:36:32 +00:00
jruoho e55b912b81 Add the Butenhof's book to SEE ALSO. (It was decent enough when I read it 
years ago, but if there are better ones, please feel free to add those.)
 2010-05-16 12:23:32 +00:00
jruoho 8292b0e60f Enumerate the functions in a table instead of a big SEE ALSO. 
Also some stylistic changes.
 2010-05-16 12:20:00 +00:00
explorer fc70b598c4 fix the pthread pt_lid in the fork callback function that runs in the child instead of a function that may be going away. KNFify 2010-03-25 01:15:00 +00:00
explorer 3f82e012db Correctly set pt_lid in the child, after a fork 2010-03-24 07:27:22 +00:00
drochner 1982972a07 catch up with the __RENAME of nanosleep(2) a while ago, otherwise we 
get the compatibility function which assumes a different struct timespec

joerg f70c7c0422 Use .In instead of .Ar Pa 2010-03-22 21:56:05 +00:00
rmind 63a834705c pthread_attr(3): sync with reality i.e. uncomment descriptions about 
various functions we support.  Fix license style.
 2009-10-05 23:37:01 +00:00
rmind 26ce5a50b4 pthread(3): mention that we use 1:1 threading model; remove descriptions 
of no longer used environment variables.
 2009-10-05 23:35:42 +00:00
rmind 81bc3e51a5 Add check to avoid multiple inclusions and redefinitions. 
KNF while here.
 2009-10-05 23:33:48 +00:00
christos 85ddadbfdc Don't just look only at the first element in the deadqueue to find lwp's 
to reuse, because if we lose the race with the kernel we are never going
to reuse any elements. Look in the whole list instead.
XXX: should be pulled up to 5.x

joerg cdb510a7bb Restore use of _lwp_makecontext, the AMD64 bug has been fixed. 2009-07-02 09:59:00 +00:00
joerg 35173b1fce Partially revert 1.110: Use makecontext again until the problems with 
_lwp_makecontext are solved.
 2009-06-25 13:38:43 +00:00
njoly 49931fb2d8 Restore PTHREAD__ASM_RASOPS for alpha (from _context_u.S), that was 
lost in previous cleanup.

ok by ad@.
 2009-05-18 13:03:35 +00:00
ad 61cac435e4 - Convert from makecontext() -> _lwp_makecontext(). 
- Rely on _lwp_makecontext() to set up the thread identity register.
  This is not currently done (a bug), nor does libpthread use the
  threadreg yet. I'm doing this so it the code can be used by the
  person working on TLS to verify that their threadreg code is working.
 2009-05-17 14:49:00 +00:00
ad a61915e94f Remove unused code that's confusing when using cscope/opengrok. 2009-05-16 22:20:40 +00:00
wiz 8b5179c21c Add CAVEATS section: 
Due to limitations in the current pthread implementation, makecontext(3)
and sigaltstack(2) should not be used in programs which link against
libpthread (whether threads are used or not).

Wording from drochner@ and ad@

Bump date for man pages.

Add note in libpthread/README so it's not forgotten to update the man
pages when the problem is fixed.

joerg d3c6cf0458 .\" are comments, not ./" 2009-04-11 15:35:15 +00:00
drochner f1c955a1b2 Fix the comparision function used by the red-black tree global thread list 
implementation:
-don't return a difference, this can overflow
-don't try to substract typed pointers which don't belong to the
 same object, this gives undefined results

This fixes instabilities of programs which use more than a handful
of threads, eg spuriously failing pthread_join().
 2009-04-01 10:13:24 +00:00
ad 7de9da978b Revert the _lwp_ctl which is causing problem. I did test this locally, 
I guess not well enough.
 2009-03-30 21:32:51 +00:00
ad 5c670ea686 - Make the threadreg code use _lwp_setprivate() instead of MD hooks. 
XXX This must not be enabled by default because the LWP private mechanism
  is reserved for TLS. It is provided only as a test/demo.

  XXX Since ucontext_t does not contain the thread private variable, for a
  short time after threads are created their thread specific data is unset.
  If a signal arrives during that time we are screwed.

- No longer need pthread__osrev.

- Rearrange _lwp_ctl() calls slightly.
 2009-03-29 09:30:05 +00:00
ad a46df1f1f2 pthread_barrier: Fix numerous stupid bugs. Surprising that nobody 
complained yet.
 2009-01-29 21:19:35 +00:00
wiz 0aec71a9f5 Fix typo. 2009-01-24 13:00:03 +00:00
rmind 909e7f4259 - Make thread-affinity and processor-set interfaces mutually exlusive. 
- pset_assign: when CPU is assigned, migrate out all LWPs from it.
