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.

3e12058d25 When checking for valid timevals in the wrapped select() and poll()
routines, don't return EINVAL but set errno to EINVAL and return -1.
Added a check in pthread_cond_timedwait for a null timespec pointer.

02292f131a In the words of the author:
o The polling mechanism for I/O readiness was changed from
    select() to poll().  In additon, a wrapped version of poll()
    is now provided.

  o The wrapped select routine now converts each fd_set to a
    poll array so that the thread scheduler doesn't have to
    perform a bitwise search for selected fds each time file
    descriptors are polled for I/O readiness.

  o The thread scheduler was modified to use a new queue (_workq)
    for threads that need work.  Threads waiting for I/O readiness
    and spinblocks are added to the work queue in addition to the
    waiting queue.  This reduces the time spent forming/searching
    the array of file descriptors being polled.

  o The waiting queue (_waitingq) is now maintained in order of
    thread wakeup time.  This allows the thread scheduler to
    find the nearest wakeup time by looking at the first thread
    in the queue instead of searching the entire queue.

  o Removed file descriptor locking for select/poll routines.  An
    application should not rely on the threads library for providing
    this locking; if necessary, the application should use mutexes
    to protect selecting/polling of file descriptors.

  o Retrieve and use the kernel clock rate/resolution at startup
    instead of hardcoding the clock resolution to 10 msec (tested
    with kernel running at 1000 HZ).

  o All queues have been changed to use queue.h macros.  These
    include the queues of all threads, dead threads, and threads
    waiting for file descriptor locks.

  o Added reinitialization of the GC mutex and condition variable
    after a fork.  Also prevented reallocation of the ready queue
    after a fork.

  o Prevented the wrapped close routine from closing the thread
    kernel pipes.

  o Initialized file descriptor table for stdio entries at thread
    init.

  o Provided additional flags to indicate to what queues threads
    belong.

  o Moved TAILQ initialization for statically allocated mutex and
    condition variables to after the spinlock.

  o Added dispatching of signals to pthread_kill.  Removing the
    dispatching of signals from thread activation broke sigsuspend
    when pthread_kill was used to send a signal to a thread.

  o Temporarily set the state of a thread to PS_SUSPENDED when it
    is first created and placed in the list of threads so that it
    will not be accidentally scheduled before becoming a member
    of one of the scheduling queues.

  o Change the signal handler to queue signals to the thread kernel
    pipe if the scheduling queues are protected.  When scheduling
    queues are unprotected, signals are then dequeued and handled.

  o Ensured that all installed signal handlers block the scheduling
    signal and that the scheduling signal handler blocks all
    other signals.  This ensures that the signal handler is only
    interruptible for and by non-scheduling signals.  An atomic
    lock is used to decide which instance of the signal handler
    will handle pending signals.

  o Removed _lock_thread_list and _unlock_thread_list as they are
    no longer used to protect the thread list.

  o Added missing RCS IDs to modified files.

  o Added checks for appropriate queue membership and activity when
    adding, removing, and searching the scheduling queues.  These
    checks add very little overhead and are enabled when compiled
    with _PTHREADS_INVARIANTS defined.  Suggested and implemented
    by Tor Egge with some modification by me.

  o Close a race condition in uthread_close.  (Tor Egge)

  o Protect the scheduling queues while modifying them in
    pthread_cond_signal and _thread_fd_unlock.  (Tor Egge)

  o Ensure that when a thread gets a mutex, the mutex is on that
    threads list of owned mutexes.  (Tor Egge)

  o Set the kernel-in-scheduler flag in _thread_kern_sched_state
    and _thread_kern_sched_state_unlock to prevent a scheduling
    signal from calling the scheduler again.  (Tor Egge)

  o Don't use TAILQ_FOREACH macro while searching the waiting
    queue for threads in a sigwait state, because a change of
    state destroys the TAILQ link.  It is actually safe to do
    so, though, because once a sigwaiting thread is found, the
    loop ends and the function returns.  (Tor Egge)

  o When dispatching signals to threads, make the thread inherit
    the signal deferral flag of the currently running thread.
    (Tor Egge)
