4fb740b8de Implement pthread_atfork() (in libc, because the required threadlib
stub behavior is exactly the same as the usual behavior).

57daa57e46 * fix handling of invalid arguments (was jumping to wrong label!)
(found by... running the regress test!)
* clean up punctuation.
* create a proper frame for the child fn that follows the o32 calling
  conventions.  In particular, leave 4 stack slots that the child
  fn can write on, put the GP above them, and invoke .cprestore
  properly in light of the child fn arg area.  (realized it was a
  problem upon inspection, verified using the regress test compiled
  -O0.)

351f7a02f1 looks like nobody ever seriously tried the _REENTRANT version of this
code (which, uh, seems the default for a fresh build)...  it wasn't
setting up v1 properly (the instruction to set up v1 was after the
return jump, in "reorder" code...  i.e.  after the end of the function).
That would break error returns from 64-bit syscalls (e.g. checks
in dd and who knows what else) to see if input or output are pipes.
It looks like the non-_REENTRANT version was broken (on the nathanw-sa
branch) in rev 1.9.2.1 and fixed in 1.9.2.2, but the _REENTRANT version
was never fixed, and the broken bits were merged back on to the trunk.

1f4ad37fe3 "Utilize" has exactly the same meaning as "use," but it is more
difficult to read and understand. Most manuals of English style
therefore say that you should use "use".

34c915eb3d Revert the conversion to libpthread's recursive mutexes. Too much
trouble is caused by the memory allocation in the mutex initialization,
and uncontested mutexes and condition variables have become faster in the
meantime.

947e41dfa9 Arrange to pause for a while if pthread_cond_wait() or

created and the SA infrastructure is up and running.

XXX probably need to do this for all of the pthread_*_timedlock()
functions, too.

029982e17b Add a new internal function, pthread__sched_sleepers(), which iterates
over a sleep queue and puts everything on the run queue. This permits
the iteration to be inside the acquisition of the run queue spinlock,
avoiding repetitive acquire/release cycles.

69367db47f Do a similar tuneup on pthread_cond_signal() and
pthread_cond_broadcast(): use double-checked locking to avoid
pthread__self() and pthread_spinlock() when signaling or broadcasting
on a condition variable with no waiters.

6cca91fc86 Mutex tuneup.
* Use a double-checked locking technique to avoid taking
   the interlock in pthread_mutex_unlock().

 * In pthread_mutex_lock() and pthread_mutex_trylock(), only store the
   stack pointer, not the thread ID, in ptm_owner. Do the translation
   to a thread ID in the slow-lock, errorcheck, and recursive mutex
   cases rather than in the common path.

 * Juggle where pthread__self() is called, to move it out of the fast path.

Overall, this means that neither pthread_self() nor
pthread_spin[un]lock() are used in the course of locking and unlocking
an uncontested mutex. Speeds up the fast path by 40-50%, and
eliminates about 98% of spinlocks used by a couple of large threaded
applications.

(Still a GET_MUTEX_PRIVATE() in the fast path... perhaps the type
should be in the main body of the mutex).

f66d2f37f7 More rototilling:
* Implement pthread_kill().

  * Return the old thread mask, not the old process mask, in our
    interpositioned sigaction call.

  * Refer to _NSIG, not NSIG.

  * Gut pthread_sigmask(). It was handling a lot of corner cases that
    weren't legal anyway. Handle unblocked signals with a new
    pthread__kill_self() routine (also used by pthread_kill()).

  * Be more consistent with locking around pt_sigacts[].

a8773f45f8 Simplify pthread__upcall() a bit by moving lock resolution before the big
switch statement, and moving upcall-type-specific code into that switch.
Beneficial side effect: don't manipulate a statelock before lock resolution
occurs.
