[ The author's description... ] 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. Submitted by: Dan Eischen <eischen@vigrid.com> Changes by me: o Added a PS_SPINBLOCK state to deal with the priority inversion problem most often (I think) seen by threads calling malloc/free/realloc. o Dispatch signals to the running thread directly rather than at a context switch to avoid the situation where the switch never occurs.

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.
