a735c7a6ea Cleanup thread accounting. Don't reset a threads timeslice
when it blocks; it only gets reset when it yields.

Properly set a thread's default stack guardsize.

a0240e2cb0 Revamp libpthread so that it has a chance of working in an SMP
environment.  This includes support for multiple KSEs and KSEGs.

The ability to create more than 1 KSE via pthread_setconcurrency()
is in the works as well as support for PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEM threads.
Those should come shortly.

There are still some known issues which davidxu and I are working
on, but it'll make it easier for us by committing what we have.

This library now passes all of the ACE tests that libc_r passes
with the exception of one.  It also seems to work OK with KDE
including konqueror, kwrite, etc.  I haven't been able to get
mozilla to run due to lack of java plugin, so I'd be interested
to see how it works with that.

cc118d869b Make the changes needed for libpthread to compile in its new home.
The new libpthread will provide POSIX threading support using KSE.
These files were previously repo-copied from src/lib/libc_r.

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.

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.
