[PATCH htl v3 0/5] Rewrite THREAD_GSCOPE

[Sergey Bugaev]

Hello,

this is yet another revision of the same patchset to stop issuing many
redundant gsync_wake () calls. Following the brief feedback I got the last
time, it switches most users of THREAD_GSCOPE_IN_TCB to PTHREAD_IN_LIBC, then
actually introduces the new GSCOPE implementation, and then finally drops the
remaining uses of THREAD_GSCOPE_IN_TCB entirely, since it's not always on.

Things still seem to build and work somewhat (tested on GNU/Hurd i686 and
GNU/Linux x86_64). rpctrace uname still shows that there are no more
gsync_wake () calls.

Apparently dlopen (RTLD_GLOBAL) is a good way to trigger THREAD_GSCOPE_WAIT ().
I have written a test program that spawns 100 threads, then each of the threads
dlopen's 100 shared objects, then dlclose's them back. On GNU/Linux, I have
verified with GDB that it hits NPTL's __thread_gscope_wait (). I haven't been
able to verify the same on the Hurd due to the general flakiness of GDB there,
but I have ran the program with the patched glibc multiple times and it doesn't
crash, so I assume it's working fine.

Sergey Bugaev (5):
  elf: Replace most uses of THREAD_GSCOPE_IN_TCB
  htl: Move thread table to ld.so
  htl: Reimplement GSCOPE
  elf: Remove THREAD_GSCOPE_IN_TCB
  testrun.sh: Add support for --tool=rpctrace
