through branch predict as suggested in INTEL IA32 optimization guide.
2.Allocate siginfo arrary separately to avoid pthread to be allocated at
2K boundary, which hits L1 address alias problem and causes context
switch to be slow down.
3.Simplify context switch code by removing redundant code, code size is
reduced, so it is expected to run faster.

thread, it is already done by _thr_alloc().

signal handling mode, there is no chance to handle the signal, something
must be wrong in the library, just call kse_thr_interrupt to dump its core.
I have the code for a long time, but forgot to commit it.
Aside from the POSIX requirements for pthread_atfork(), when
fork()ing, take the malloc lock to keep malloc state consistent
in the child.

about the fpu code here. It should be using fxsave/fxrstor instead of
saving/restoring the control word. The SSE registers are used a lot in
gcc generated code on amd64. I'm not sure how this all fits together
though.
On ia64, where there's no libc_r at all, libkse is now the default
thread library by virtue of these links.
The reasons for this change are:
1. libkse is slated to become the default thread library anyway,
2. active development and maintenance is only present for libkse,
3. GNOME and KDE, both in the process of being supported on ia64,
work better with KSE; even on ia64.
can clear the pointer to mutex, not the thread doing mutex
handoff. Because _mutex_lock_backout does not hold scheduler
lock while testing THR_FLAGS_IN_SYNCQ and then reading mutex
pointer, it is possible mutex owner begin to unlock and
handoff the mutex to the current thread, and mutex pointer
will be cleared to NULL before current thread reading it, so
current thread will end up with deferencing a NULL pointer,
Fix the race by making mutex waiters to clear their mutex pointers.
While I am here, also save inherited priority in mutex for
PTHREAD_PRIO_INERIT mutex in mutex_trylock_common just like what
we did in mutex_lock_common.

Also in _thr_sig_handler, retrieve current signal mask from kernel not
from ucp, the later is pre-unioned mask, not current signal mask.
pthread_md.h. This commit only moves the definition; it does not
change it for any of the platforms. This more easily allows 64-bit
architectures (in particular) to pick a slightly larger stack size.
THR_SETCONTEXT as PANIC(). The THR_SETCONTEXT macro is currently not
used, which means that the definition we had could be wrong, overly
pessimistic or unknowingly right. I don't like the odds...
The new _ia64_break_setcontext() and corresponding kernel fixes make
KSE mostly usable. There's still a case where we don't properly
restore a context and end up with a NaT consumption fault (typically
an indication for not handling NaT collection points correctly),
but at least now mutex_d works...
state for amd64 was twice as large as necessary. Peter
recently fixed this, so the comment no longer applies.
Also, since the size of struct mcontext changed, adjust
the threads library version of get&set context to match.
FYI, any change layout/size change to any arch's struct
mcontext will likely need some minor changes in libpthread.
to avoid potential memory leak, also fix a bug in pthread_create, contention
scope should be inherited when PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED is set, and also check
right field for PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED, scheduling inherit flag is in sched_inherit.
2. Execute hooks registered by atexit() on thread stack but not on scheduler
stack.
3. Simplify some code in _kse_single_thread by calling xxx_destroy functions.

should be a value past to pthread_attr_setguardsize, not a rounded up value.
Also fix a stack size matching bug in thr_stack.c, now stack matching code
uses number of pages but not bytes length to match stack size, so for example,
size 512 bytes and size 513 bytes should both match 1 page stack size.
