initial import of pigz 2.1.6 sources. from http://www.zlib.net/pigz/: """ pigz, which stands for parallel implementation of gzip, is a fully functional replacement for gzip that exploits multiple processors and multiple cores to the hilt when compressing data. pigz was written by Mark Adler, and uses the zlib and pthread libraries. How is it pronounced? I'm glad you asked. It is pronounced "pig-zee". It is not pronounced like the plural of pig. """ once i am done adding bz2 support to pigz, i plan to obsolete my usr.bin/gzip.

/* Basic thread operations
|
|
|
|
This interface isolates the local operating system implementation of threads
|
|
from the application in order to facilitate platform independent use of
|
|
threads. All of the implementation details are deliberately hidden.
|
|
|
|
Assuming adequate system resources and proper use, none of these functions
|
|
can fail. As a result, any errors encountered will cause an exit() to be
|
|
executed.
|
|
|
|
These functions allow the simple launching and joining of threads, and the
|
|
locking of objects and synchronization of changes of objects. The latter is
|
|
implemented with a single lock type that contains an integer value. The
|
|
value can be ignored for simple exclusive access to an object, or the value
|
|
can be used to signal and wait for changes to an object.
|
|
|
|
-- Arguments --
|
|
|
|
thread *thread; identifier for launched thread, used by join
|
|
void probe(void *); pointer to function "probe", run when thread starts
|
|
void *payload; single argument passed to the probe function
|
|
lock *lock; a lock with a value -- used for exclusive access to
|
|
an object and to synchronize threads waiting for
|
|
changes to an object
|
|
long val; value to set lock, increment lock, or wait for
|
|
int n; number of threads joined
|
|
|
|
-- Thread functions --
|
|
|
|
thread = launch(probe, payload) - launch a thread -- exit via probe() return
|
|
join(thread) - join a thread and by joining end it, waiting for the thread
|
|
to exit if it hasn't already -- will free the resources allocated by
|
|
launch() (don't try to join the same thread more than once)
|
|
n = join_all() - join all threads launched by launch() that are not joined
|
|
yet and free the resources allocated by the launches, usually to clean
|
|
up when the thread processing is done -- join_all() returns an int with
|
|
the count of the number of threads joined (join_all() should only be
|
|
called from the main thread, and should only be called after any calls
|
|
of join() have completed)
|
|
destruct(thread) - terminate the thread in mid-execution and join it
|
|
(depending on the implementation, the termination may not be immediate,
|
|
but may wait for the thread to execute certain thread or file i/o
|
|
operations)
|
|
|
|
-- Lock functions --
|
|
|
|
lock = new_lock(val) - create a new lock with initial value val (lock is
|
|
created in the released state)
|
|
possess(lock) - acquire exclusive possession of a lock, waiting if necessary
|
|
twist(lock, [TO | BY], val) - set lock to or increment lock by val, signal
|
|
all threads waiting on this lock and then release the lock -- must
|
|
possess the lock before calling (twist releases, so don't do a
|
|
release() after a twist() on the same lock)
|
|
wait_for(lock, [TO_BE | NOT_TO_BE | TO_BE_MORE_THAN | TO_BE_LESS_THAN], val)
|
|
- wait on lock value to be, not to be, be greater than, or be less than
|
|
val -- must possess the lock before calling, will possess the lock on
|
|
return but the lock is released while waiting to permit other threads
|
|
to use twist() to change the value and signal the change (so make sure
|
|
that the object is in a usable state when waiting)
|
|
release(lock) - release a possessed lock (do not try to release a lock that
|
|
the current thread does not possess)
|
|
val = peek_lock(lock) - return the value of the lock (assumes that lock is
|
|
already possessed, no possess or release is done by peek_lock())
|
|
free_lock(lock) - free the resources allocated by new_lock() (application
|
|
must assure that the lock is released before calling free_lock())
|
|
|
|
-- Memory allocation ---
|
|
|
|
yarn_mem(better_malloc, better_free) - set the memory allocation and free
|
|
routines for use by the yarn routines where the supplied routines have
|
|
the same interface and operation as malloc() and free(), and may be
|
|
provided in order to supply thread-safe memory allocation routines or
|
|
for any other reason -- by default malloc() and free() will be used
|
|
|
|
-- Error control --
|
|
|
|
yarn_name - a char pointer to a string that will be the prefix for any error
|
|
messages that these routines generate before exiting -- if not changed
|
|
by the application, "yarn" will be used
|
|
yarn_abort - an external function that will be executed when there is an
|
|
internal yarn error, due to out of memory or misuse -- this function
|
|
may exit to abort the application, or if it returns, the yarn error
|
|
handler will exit (set to NULL by default for no action)
