NetBSD's PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX is set to 256, which is low compared to
other systems like Linux (1024) or MacOS X (512). As a result some
setups tested on Linux will exhibit problems on NetBSD because of
pthread_keys usage beyond the limit. This happens for instance on
Apache with various module loaded, and in this case no particular
developper can be blamed for going beyond the limit, since several
modules from different sources contribute to the problem.
This patch makes the limit conigurable through the PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX
environement variable. If undefined, the default remains unchanged
(256). In any case, the value cannot be lowered below POSIX-mandated
_POSIX_THREAD_KEYS_MAX (128).
While there:
- use EXIT_FAILURE instead of 1 when calling err(3) in libpthread.
- Reset _POSIX_THREAD_KEYS_MAX to POSIX mandated 128, instead of 256.
- Add missing stuff from Issue 6 (some of it commented out)
- Fix _POSIX_THREAD -> PTHREAD variable confusion
- Amend PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX to 256 since this is what libpthread defined internally
2. unfortunately hppa's MB_LEN_MAX is defined incorrectly 6 instead of 32
so we have to add more setlocale(3) __RENAME func, __setlocale50.
3. move setlocale1.c and setlocale32.c to lib/libc/compat/locale/*
prepareing for next libc major crunk.
4. bump libc minor version.
- Add POSIX defined system variables and constants of AIO_LISTIO_MAX and
AIO_MAX values. Both with _POSIX_ASYNCHRONOUS_IO, provide them in
sysconf(3) and getconf(1) interfaces.
- Clean up sysconf(3) for handling sysctl nodes dynamically.
the 1003.1-2001 Thread Safe Functions (TSF) getgrnam_r(3) and getpwnam_r(3).
These are not implemented in sysctl(3) "user.*", since that adds a lot
of complexity in the implementation for no real benefit.
by the application, all NetBSD interfaces are made visible, even
if some other feature-test macro (like _POSIX_C_SOURCE) is defined.
<sys/featuretest.h> defined _NETBSD_SOURCE if none of _ANSI_SOURCE,
_POSIX_C_SOURCE and _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined, so as to preserve
existing behaviour.
This has two major advantages:
+ Programs that require non-POSIX facilities but define _POSIX_C_SOURCE
can trivially be overruled by putting -D_NETBSD_SOURCE in their CFLAGS.
+ It makes most of the #ifs simpler, in that they're all now ORs of the
various macros, rather than having checks for (!defined(_ANSI_SOURCE) ||
!defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) || !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE)) all over the place.
I've tried not to change the semantics of the headers in any case where
_NETBSD_SOURCE wasn't defined, but there were some places where the
current semantics were clearly mad, and retaining them was harder than
correcting them. In particular, I've mostly normalised things so that
_ANSI_SOURCE gets you the smallest set of stuff, then _POSIX_C_SOURCE,
_XOPEN_SOURCE and _NETBSD_SOURCE in that order.
Tested by building for vax, encouraged by thorpej, and uncontested in
tech-userlevel for a week.
