2011-03-30	optimize timer creation and possibly protect against some minor races	Rich Felker	-2/+0
	the major idea of this patch is not to depend on having the timer pointer delivered to the signal handler, and instead use the thread pointer to get the callback function address and argument. this way, the parent thread can make the timer_create syscall while the child thread is starting, and it should never have to block waiting for the barrier.
2011-03-29	major improvements to cancellation handling	Rich Felker	-2/+5
	- there is no longer any risk of spoofing cancellation requests, since the cancel flag is set in pthread_cancel rather than in the signal handler. - cancellation signal is no longer unblocked when running the cancellation handlers. instead, pthread_create will cause any new threads created from a cancellation handler to unblock their own cancellation signal. - various tweaks in preparation for POSIX timer support.
2011-03-29	some preliminaries for adding POSIX timers	Rich Felker	-0/+4

2011-03-28	remove useless field in pthread struct (wasted a good bit of space)	Rich Felker	-1/+0

2011-03-17	implement robust mutexes	Rich Felker	-0/+5
	some of this code should be cleaned up, e.g. using macros for some of the bit flags, masks, etc. nonetheless, the code is believed to be working and correct at this point.
2011-03-17	reorder mutex struct fields to make room for pointers (upcoming robust mutexes)	Rich Felker	-1/+3
	the layout has been chosen so that pointer slots 3 and 4 fit between the integer slots on 32-bit archs, and come after the integer slots on 64-bit archs.
2011-03-17	unify lock and owner fields of mutex structure	Rich Felker	-1/+0
	this change is necessary to free up one slot in the mutex structure so that we can use doubly-linked lists in the implementation of robust mutexes.
2011-03-10	optimize pthread termination in the non-detached case	Rich Felker	-0/+1
	we can avoid blocking signals by simply using a flag to mark that the thread has exited and prevent it from getting counted in the rsyscall signal-pingpong. this restores the original pthread create/join throughput from before the sigprocmask call was added.
2011-03-08	fix and optimize non-default-type mutex behavior	Rich Felker	-0/+1
	problem 1: mutex type from the attribute was being ignored by pthread_mutex_init, so recursive/errorchecking mutexes were never being used at all. problem 2: ownership of recursive mutexes was not being enforced at unlock time.
2011-03-07	use the selected clock from the condattr for pthread_cond_timedwait	Rich Felker	-0/+1

2011-02-17	reorganize pthread data structures and move the definitions to alltypes.h	Rich Felker	-0/+19
	this allows sys/types.h to provide the pthread types, as required by POSIX. this design also facilitates forcing ABI-compatible sizes in the arch-specific alltypes.h, while eliminating the need for developers changing the internals of the pthread types to poke around with arch-specific headers they may not be able to test.
2011-02-15	finish unifying thread register handling in preparation for porting	Rich Felker	-8/+2

2011-02-15	begin unifying clone/thread management interface in preparation for porting	Rich Felker	-5/+3

2011-02-12	initial check-in, version 0.5.0v0.5.0	Rich Felker	-0/+68
