our pthread barrier implementation reportedly has bugs that are could lead to malfunction or crash in timer_create. while this has not been reviewed to confirm, there have been past reports of pthread barrier bugs, and it seems likely that something is actually wrong. pthread barriers are an obscure primitive, and timer_create is the only place we are using them internally at present. even if they were working correctly, this means we are imposing linking of otherwise likely-dead code whenever timer_create is used. a pair of semaphores functions identically to a 2-waiter barrier except for destruction order properties. since the parent is responsible for the argument structure (including semaphores) lifetimes, the last operation on them in the timer thread must be posting to the parent. |

musl libc
musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.
The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.
For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
the project website:
