This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Here are the diffs for libc_r to get it one step closer to P1003.1c
These make most of the thread/mutex/condvar structures opaque to the
user. There are three functions which have been renamed with _np
suffixes because they are extensions to P1003.1c (I did them for JAVA,
which needs to suspend/resume threads and also start threads suspended).
I've created a new header (pthread_np.h) for the non-POSIX stuff.
The egrep tags stuff in /usr/src/lib/libc_r/Makefile that I uncommented
doesn't work. I think its best to delete it. I don't think libc_r needs
tags anyway, 'cause most of the source is in libc which does have tags.
also:
Here's the first batch of man pages for the thread functions.
The diff to /usr/src/lib/libc_r/Makefile removes some stuff that was
inherited from /usr/src/lib/libc/Makefile that should only be done with
libc.
also:
I should have sent this diff with the pthread(3) man page.
It allows people to type
make -DWANT_LIBC_R world
to get libc_r built with the rest of the world. I put this in the
pthread(3) man page. The default is still not to build libc_r.
also:
The diff attached adds a pthread(3) man page to /usr/src/share/man/man3.
The idea is that without libc_r installed, this man page will give people
enough info to know that they have to build libc_r.
Also corrected a few minor formatting errors, file location and cross
references in some of the section 3 man pages.
This shuts up a lot of the output from "manck" for section 3.
The private clean rules have been broken since we started
building compressed man pages in the obj directory and the
others don't do anything different from the general rules.
