- Improve compatibility with Blink virtual machine
- Add non-POSIX APIs for joining threads and signal masks
- Never ever use anything except 32-bit integers for atomics
- Add some `#undef` statements to workaround `ctags` problems
This change adds a double linked list of threads, so that pthread_exit()
will know when it should call exit() from an orphaned child. This change
also improves ftrace and strace logging.
- Exhaustively document cancellation points
- Rename SIGCANCEL to SIGTHR just like BSDs
- Further improve POSIX thread cancellations
- Ensure asynchronous cancellations work correctly
- Elevate the quality of getrandom() and getentropy()
- Make futexes cancel correctly on OpenBSD 6.x and 7.x
- Add reboot.com and shutdown.com to examples directory
- Remove underscore prefix from awesome timespec_*() APIs
- Create assertions that help verify our cancellation points
- Remove bad timespec APIs (cmp generalizes eq/ne/gt/gte/lt/lte)
- fix rare thread exit race condition on openbsd
- pthread_getattr_np() now supplies detached status
- child threads may now pthread_join() the main thread
- introduce sigandset(), sigorset(), and sigisemptyset()
- introduce pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop()
Since we're now on Windows 8, we can have clone() work as advertised on
Windows, where it sends a futex wake to the child tid. It's also likely
we no longer need to work around thread flakes on OpenBSD, in _wait0().
This makes breaking changes to add underscores to many non-standard
function names provided by the c library. MODE=tiny is now tinier and
we now use smaller locks that are better for tiny apps in this mode.
Some headers have been renamed to be in the same folder as the build
package, so it'll be easier to know which build dependency is needed.
Certain old misguided interfaces have been removed. Intel intrinsics
headers are now listed in libc/isystem (but not in the amalgamation)
to help further improve open source compatibility. Header complexity
has also been reduced. Lastly, more shell scripts are now available.
