Our current implementation of qemu_thread_atexit* is broken on OSX.
This is because it works by cerating a piece of thread-specific
data with pthread_key_create() and using the destructor function
for that data to run the notifier function passed to it by
the caller of qemu_thread_atexit_add(). The expected use case
is that the caller uses a __thread variable as the notifier,
and uses the callback to clean up information that it is
keeping per-thread in __thread variables.
Unfortunately, on OSX this does not work, because on OSX
a __thread variable may be destroyed (freed) before the
pthread_key_create() destructor runs. (POSIX imposes no
ordering constraint here; the OSX implementation happens
to implement __thread variables in terms of pthread_key_create((),
whereas Linux uses different mechanisms that mean the __thread
variables will still be present when the pthread_key_create()
destructor is run.)
Fix this by switching to a scheme similar to the one qemu-thread-win32
uses for qemu_thread_atexit: keep the thread's notifiers on a
__thread variable, and run the notifiers on calls to
qemu_thread_exit() and on return from the start routine passed
to qemu_thread_start(). We do this with the pthread_cleanup_push()
API.
We take advantage of the qemu_thread_atexit_add() API
permission not to run thread notifiers on process exit to
avoid having to special case the main thread.

Introduce some hooks for the shared part of qemu thread between POSIX
and Windows implementations. Note that in qemu_mutex_unlock_impl() we
moved the call before unlock operation which should make more sense.
And we don't need qemu_mutex_post_unlock() hook.
Put all these shared hooks into the header files. It should be internal
to qemu-thread but not for qemu-thread users, hence put into util/
directory.

The cause of this problem is a glibc bug; for more information, see
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19951.
The solution for this bug is to use pthread_attr_setdetachstate.
There is a similar issue with pthread_setname_np, which is moved
from creating thread to created thread.

In qemu-thread-posix.c we have two implementations of the
various qemu_sem_* functions, one of which uses native POSIX
sem_* and the other of which emulates them with pthread conditions.
This is necessary because not all our host OSes support
sem_timedwait().
Instead of a hard-coded list of OSes which don't implement
sem_timedwait(), which gets out of date, make configure
test for the presence of the function and set a new
CONFIG_HAVE_SEM_TIMEDWAIT appropriately.
In particular, newer NetBSDs have sem_timedwait(), so this
commit will switch them over to using it. OSX still does
not have an implementation.

These trace events were very useful to help me to understand and find a
reordering issue in vfio, for example:
qemu_mutex_lock locked mutex 0x10905ad8
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc0, 0x2020c, 4)
qemu_mutex_unlock unlocked mutex 0x10905ad8
qemu_mutex_lock locked mutex 0x10905ad8
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc4, 0xa0000, 4)
qemu_mutex_unlock unlocked mutex 0x10905ad8
that also helped me to see the desired result after the fix:
qemu_mutex_lock locked mutex 0x10905ad8
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc0, 0x2000c, 4)
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc4, 0xb0000, 4)
qemu_mutex_unlock unlocked mutex 0x10905ad8
So it could be a good idea to have these traces implemented. It's worth
mentioning that they should be surgically enabled during the debugging,
otherwise it can flood the trace logs with lock/unlock messages.
How to use it:
trace-event qemu_mutex_lock on|off
trace-event qemu_mutex_unlock on|off
or
trace-event qemu_mutex* on|off

Do not use the somewhat mysterious atomic_mb_read/atomic_mb_set,
instead make sure that the operations on QemuEvent are annotated
with the desired acquire and release semantics.
In particular, qemu_event_set wakes up the waiting thread, so it must
be a release from the POV of the waker (compare with qemu_mutex_unlock).
And it actually needs a full barrier, because that's the only thing that
provides something like a "load-release".
Use smp_mb_acquire until we have atomic_load_acquire and
atomic_store_release in atomic.h.

PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK is completely broken with respect to fork.
The way to safely do fork is to bring all threads to a quiescent
state by acquiring locks (either in callers---as we do for the
iothread mutex---or using pthread_atfork's prepare callbacks)
and then release them in the child.
The problem is that releasing error-checking locks in the child
fails under glibc with EPERM, because the mutex stores a different
owner tid than the duplicated thread in the child process. We
could make it work for locks acquired via pthread_atfork, by
recreating the mutex in the child instead of unlocking it
(we know that there are no other threads that could have taken
the mutex; but when the lock is acquired in fork's caller
that would not be possible.
The simplest solution is just to forgo error checking.

Destructors are the main additional feature of pthread TLS compared
to __thread. If we were using C++ (hint, hint!) we could have used
thread-local objects with a destructor. Since we are not, instead,
we add a simple Notifier-based API.
Note that the notifier must be per-thread as well. We can add a
global list as well later, perhaps.
The Win32 implementation has some complications because a) detached
threads used not to have a QemuThreadData; b) the main thread does
not go through win32_start_routine, so we have to use atexit too.

This emulates Win32 manual-reset events using futexes or conditional
variables. Typical ways to use them are with multi-producer,
single-consumer data structures, to test for a complex condition whose
elements come from different threads:
for (;;) {
qemu_event_reset(ev);
... test complex condition ...
if (condition is true) {
break;
}
qemu_event_wait(ev);
}
Or more efficiently (but with some duplication):
... evaluate condition ...
while (!condition) {
qemu_event_reset(ev);
... evaluate condition ...
if (!condition) {
qemu_event_wait(ev);
... evaluate condition ...
}
}
QemuEvent provides a very fast userspace path in the common case when
no other thread is waiting, or the event is not changing state.
