7a07ca9b3c pthread.h: drop nullability attributes.
These have been found to be practically useless. We were actually
following the Android bionic library and had some interest in replicating
the same warnings and behaviour but Android has since removed them.

We are still keeping some uses of nullability attributes in other headers,
somewhat in line with Apple's libc.

e58eb3c437 include: General further adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using mis-identified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

649702c5a3 Make use of clang nullability attributes.
Replace uses of the GCC __nonnull__ attribute with the clang nullability
qualifiers. The replacement should be transparent for clang developers as
the new qualifiers will produce the same warnings and will be useful for
static checkers but will not cause aggressive optimizations.

GCC will not produce such warnings and developers will have to use
upgraded GCC ports built with the system headers from r312538.

f1b298ad46 Remove some uses of the GCC __nonnull() attribute.
While the checks are considered useful, the attribute does dangerous
optimizations, removing NULL checks where they can be needed. Remove the
uses of this attribute introduced in r281130: the changes were inspired on
Google's bionic where this attribute is not used anymore.

The __nonnull() attribute will be deprecrated from our headers and
replaced with the Clang _Nonnull qualifier in the future.

2a339d9e3d Add implementation of robust mutexes, hopefully close enough to the
intention of the POSIX IEEE Std 1003.1TM-2008/Cor 1-2013.

A robust mutex is guaranteed to be cleared by the system upon either
thread or process owner termination while the mutex is held.  The next
mutex locker is then notified about inconsistent mutex state and can
execute (or abandon) corrective actions.

The patch mostly consists of small changes here and there, adding
neccessary checks for the inconsistent and abandoned conditions into
existing paths.  Additionally, the thread exit handler was extended to
iterate over the userspace-maintained list of owned robust mutexes,
unlocking and marking as terminated each of them.

The list of owned robust mutexes cannot be maintained atomically
synchronous with the mutex lock state (it is possible in kernel, but
is too expensive).  Instead, for the duration of lock or unlock
operation, the current mutex is remembered in a special slot that is
also checked by the kernel at thread termination.

Kernel must be aware about the per-thread location of the heads of
robust mutex lists and the current active mutex slot.  When a thread
touches a robust mutex for the first time, a new umtx op syscall is
issued which informs about location of lists heads.

The umtx sleep queues for PP and PI mutexes are split between
non-robust and robust.

Somewhat unrelated changes in the patch:
1. Style.
2. The fix for proper tdfind() call use in umtxq_sleep_pi() for shared
   pi mutexes.
3. Removal of the userspace struct pthread_mutex m_owner field.
4. The sysctl kern.ipc.umtx_vnode_persistent is added, which controls
   the lifetime of the shared mutex associated with a vnode' page.

153cbcd657 Make use of gcc attributes in some standard include headers.
The `nonnull' attribute specifies that some function parameters should be
non-null pointers.  This is very useful as it helps the compiler generate
warnings on suspicious code and can also enable some small optimizations.

Also start using 'alloc_size' attribute in the allocator functions.

This is an initial step to better integrate our libc with the compiler:
these attributes are fully supported by clang and they are also useful
for the static analyzer.

Note that due to some bogus internal procedure in the way gcc ports
are built they may require updating if they were built before r280801.

The `nonnull' attribute specifies that some function parameters should be

In clang this is also useful for the static analyzer.

While we could go on defining this all over the tree, it only
makes sense to annotate a subset of critical functions.

49891e45d2 Add lock annotations to the header files of our threading libraries.
This change extends all of the functions present in the <pthread.h> and
<threads.h> headers to have lock annotations. This will allow Clang to
warn about the following:

- Locking a function twice,
- Unlocking a function without a mutex being locked,
- Forgetting to unlock a mutex before returning,
- Destroying or reinitializing a mutex that is currenty locked,
- Using an unlocked mutex in combination with a condition variable.

Enabling these annotations already allowed me to catch a bug in one of
our userspace tools (r270749).

2017a7cdfe Add a new "non-portable" mutex type, PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP. This
is also implemented in glibc and is used by a number of existing
applications (mysql, firefox, etc).

This mutex type is a default mutex with the additional property that
it spins briefly when attempting to acquire a contested lock, doing
trylock operations in userland before entering the kernel to block if
eventually unsuccessful.

The expectation is that applications requesting this mutex type know
that the mutex is likely to be only held for very brief periods, so it
is faster to spin in userland and probably succeed in acquiring the
mutex, than to enter the kernel and sleep, only to be woken up almost
immediately.  This can help significantly in certain cases when
pthread mutexes are heavily contended and held for brief durations
(such as mysql).

Spin up to 200 times before entering the kernel, which represents only
a few us on modern CPUs.  No performance degradation was observed with
this value and it is sufficient to avoid a large performance drop in
mysql performance in the heavily contended pthread mutex case.

The libkse implementation is a NOP.

b847980f15 o Runnable threads are now maintained in priority queues. The
implementation requires two things:

      1.) The priority queues must be protected during insertion
          and removal of threads.  Since the kernel scheduler
          must modify the priority queues, a spinlock for
          protection cannot be used.   The functions
          _thread_kern_sched_defer() and _thread_kern_sched_undefer()
          were added to {un}defer kernel scheduler activation.

      2.) A thread (active) priority change can be performed only
          when the thread is removed from the priority queue.  The
          implementation uses a threads active priority when
          inserting it into the queue.

    A by-product is that thread switches are much faster.  A
    separate queue is used for waiting and/or blocked threads,
    and it is searched at most 2 times in the kernel scheduler
    when there are active threads.  It should be possible to
    reduce this to once by combining polling of threads waiting
    on I/O with the loop that looks for timed out threads and
    the minimum timeout value.

  o Functions to defer kernel scheduler activation were added.  These
    are _thread_kern_sched_defer() and _thread_kern_sched_undefer()
    and may be called recursively.  These routines do not block the
    scheduling signal, but latch its occurrence.  The signal handler
    will not call the kernel scheduler when the running thread has
    deferred scheduling, but it will be called when running thread
    undefers scheduling.

  o Added support for _POSIX_THREAD_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING.  All the
    POSIX routines required by this should now be implemented.
    One note, SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_FIFO, and SCHED_RR are required
    to be defined by including pthread.h.  These defines are currently
    in sched.h.  I modified pthread.h to include sched.h but don't
    know if this is the proper thing to do.

  o Added support for priority protection and inheritence mutexes.
    This allows definition of _POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_PROTECT and
    _POSIX_THREAD_PRIO_INHERIT.

  o Added additional error checks required by POSIX for mutexes and
    condition variables.

  o Provided a wrapper for sigpending which is marked as a hidden
    syscall.

  o Added a non-portable function as a debugging aid to allow an
    application to monitor thread context switches.  An application
    can install a routine that gets called everytime a thread
    (explicitly created by the application) gets context switched.
    The routine gets passed the pthread IDs of the threads that are
    being switched in and out.  I found this useful, but we can
    get rid of it if you want.
