437df4859a To be consistent, use the __weak_reference macro from <sys/cdefs.h>
instead of #pragma weak to create weak definitions.

e5106342c6 Add weak definitions for wrapped system calls. In general:
_foo - wrapped system call
	foo - weak definition to _foo

and for cancellation points:

	_foo - wrapped system call
	__foo - enter cancellation point, call _foo(), leave
	        cancellation point
	foo - weak definition to __foo

Change use of global _thread_run to call a function to get the
currently running thread.

Make all pthread_foo functions weak definitions to _pthread_foo,
where _pthread_foo is the implementation.  This allows an application
to provide its own pthread functions.

Provide slightly different versions of pthread_mutex_lock and
pthread_mutex_init so that we can tell the difference between
a libc mutex and an application mutex.  Threads holding mutexes
internal to libc should never be allowed to exit, call signal
handlers, or cancel.

d77639f25f Use __strong_reference() instead of __weak_reference() to assure that the
weak symbols of the same name are not used.

9233c4d942 Simplify sytem call renaming. Instead of _foo() <-- _libc_foo <-- foo(),
just use _foo() <-- foo().  In the case of a libpthread that doesn't do
call conversion (such as linuxthreads and our upcoming libpthread), this
is adequate.  In the case of libc_r, we still need three names, which are
now _thread_sys_foo() <-- _foo() <-- foo().

Convert all internal libc usage of: aio_suspend(), close(), fsync(), msync(),
nanosleep(), open(), fcntl(), read(), and write() to _foo() instead of foo().

Remove all internal libc usage of: creat(), pause(), sleep(), system(),
tcdrain(), wait(), and waitpid().

Make thread cancellation fully POSIX-compliant.

f560c4e709 Track libc's three-tier symbol naming. libc_r must currently implement
the _libc_*() entry points and add *() weak aliases.  This will all
change for the better when libc_r becomes libpthread.

8eb25828ad Check the access mode in the flags before waiting on a read or a write
that might never be possible if the file was not opened in the corrent
mode. This prevents a hang for bad programs. Why do people code like that?

ddc8afd422 Implement compile time debug support instead of tracking file name and
line number every time a file descriptor is locked.

This looks like a big change but it isn't. It should reduce the size
of libc_r and make it run slightly faster.

01029f8f17 Make a copy of the caller's iovec array, mallocing if necessary,
and modify that if the writev() syscall does not completely write
all bytes in a single call.

e5a8a007e1 When doing a blocking write, keep looping until all the bytes are
written without returning to the caller. This only occurs on pipes
where either the number of bytes written is greater than the pipe
buffer or if there is insufficient space in the pipe buffer because the
reader is reading slower than the writer is writing.

4a027d50c7 Change signal model to match POSIX (i.e. one set of signal handlers
for the process, not a separate set for each thread). By default, the
process now only has signal handlers installed for SIGVTALRM, SIGINFO
and SIGCHLD. The thread kernel signal handler is installed for other
signals on demand. This means that SIG_IGN and SIG_DFL processing is now
left to the kernel, not the thread kernel.

Change the signal dispatch to no longer use a signal thread, and
call the signal handler using the stack of the thread that has the
signal pending.

Change the atomic lock method to use test-and-set asm code with
a yield if blocked. This introduces separate locks for each type
of object instead of blocking signals to prevent a context
switch. It was this blocking of signals that caused the performance
degradation the people have noted.

This is a *big* change!

f5295b34ac Fixes from Jeremy Allison and Terry Lambert for pthreads:
specifically:
uthread_accept.c: Fix for inherited socket not getting correct entry in
                  pthread flags.
uthread_create.c: Fix to allow pthread_t pointer return to be null if
                  caller doesn't care about return.
uthread_fd.c: Fix for return codes to be placed into correct errno.
uthread_init.c: Changes to make gcc-2.8 thread aware for exception stack
                frames (WARNING: This is #ifdef'ed out by default and is
		different from the Cygnus egcs fix).
uthread_ioctl.c: Fix for blocking/non-blocking ioctl.
uthread_kern.c: Signal handling fixes (only one case left to fix,
                that of an externally sent SIGSEGV and friends -
		a fairly unusual case).
uthread_write.c: Fix for lock of fd - ask for write lock, not read/write.
uthread_writev.c: Fix for lock of fd - ask for write lock, not read/write.

Pthreads now works well enough to run the LDAP and ACAPD(with the gcc 2.8 fix)
sample implementations.
