adding (weak definitions to) stubs for some of the pthread
functions. If the threads library is linked in, the real
pthread functions will pulled in.
Use the following convention for system calls wrapped by the
threads library:
__sys_foo - actual system call
_foo - weak definition to __sys_foo
foo - weak definition to __sys_foo
Change all libc uses of system calls wrapped by the threads
library from foo to _foo. In order to define the prototypes
for _foo(), we introduce namespace.h and un-namespace.h
(suggested by bde). All files that need to reference these
system calls, should include namespace.h before any standard
includes, then include un-namespace.h after the standard
includes and before any local includes. <db.h> is an exception
and shouldn't be included in between namespace.h and
un-namespace.h namespace.h will define foo to _foo, and
un-namespace.h will undefine foo.
Try to eliminate some of the recursive calls to MT-safe
functions in libc/stdio in preparation for adding a mutex
to FILE. We have recursive mutexes, but would like to avoid
using them if possible.
Remove uneeded includes of <errno.h> from a few files.
Add $FreeBSD$ to a few files in order to pass commitprep.

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.

points. For library functions, the pattern is __sleep() <--
_libc_sleep() <-- sleep(). The arrows represent weak aliases. For
system calls, the pattern is _read() <-- _libc_read() <-- read().
back to the original single nanosleep() implementation. This is POSIX and
Unix98 (aka single-unix spec v2) compliant behavior. If a program sets
alarm(2) or an interval timer (setitimer(2)) without a SIGALRM handler
being active, sleep(3) will no longer absorb it, and the program will get
what it asked for..... :-]
The original reason for this in the first place (apache) doesn't seem to
need it anymore, according to Andrey.

and return to previous Peter's variant.
POSIX says that this place is implementation defined and old variant allows
application block SIGALRM and sleep and not be killed by external SIGALRMs.
BTW, GNU sleep f.e. sleeps forever in blocked SIGALRM :-)
acceptable range for tv_sec to the magic number 100000000 (which at

we were only eating them if the application did not call sleep()/usleep()

semantics of the old sleep for compatability with a few decades of expected
side effects. Apache breaks if we just use nanosleep() for some reason,
here we use a new signanosleep() syscall which is kinda like a hybrid of
sigsuspend and nanosleep..
Reviewed by: ache (and tested on his apache that was failing when
sleep used plain nanosleep)
-DUSE_NANOSLEEP. Also, seperate the code for _THREAD_SAFE so that it uses
the simpler threaded nanosleep() call in libc_r.. We don't go to the same
extremes for emulating traditional sleep semantics (ie: eating any SIGALRM
that might happen) which things like apache seem to depend on.
(nanosleep) breaks Apache httpd badly: his childs died quickly after
number of requests (SIGPIPE). To reproduce this bug start
gdb /usr/local/sbin/httpd
run -X
and make some bunch of concurent requests (load the server pages
from 3 different places f.e.)
After short time httpd dies via SIGPIPE. It never dies with old sleep.c
In real life it looks like lots of broken images on the pages or missing
pages. Lynx says about Network read error, etc.
It seems something wrong in nanosleep signal handling.
