Fri Jul 13 01:01:46 2007 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gthread.[hc]: more atomic ops pointer cast fixes. this time it'll
work with atomic op macros *and* atomic op functions.

Tue Jul 10 12:24:35 2007 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gthread.[hc]: implemented g_once_init_enter(),
g_once_init_enter_impl() and g_once_init_leave(), based on a patch by
Antoine Tremblay, fixes#65041.
adapted exported inline function mechanism from gutils.[hc] for inlining
g_once_init_enter_impl() in gthread.[hc].

2007-06-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@google.com>
* docs/reference/glib/tmpl/threads.sgml: Extended the comments on
those functions, that are NOOPs, before g_thread_init() has been
called. (#447583)
* glib/gthread.c (g_static_mutex_free): Clarified comment to
remind myself, tha calling g_static_mutex_free() before
g_thread_init() is safe.

* glib/gthread.h:
* glib/gthread.c:
* glib/glib.symbols: Revert an accidental ABI break by
moving gettime out of the GThreadFunctions struct and making
it a separate variable. (#397139, Joe Marcus Clarke)

2007-01-16 Tor Lillqvist <tml@novell.com>
* glib/gthread.c (gettime)
* gthread-win32.c (g_gettime_win32_impl):
GetSystemTimeAsFileTime() returns 100s of nanoseconds since 1601,
so offset to Unix epoch (1970) and multiply by 100 to get
nanoseconds which is what we want.

Don't link glib against libpthread. (#393812)
* configure.in: Link gthread against librt, not glib itself.
* glib/gthread.h:
* glib/gthread.c: Add a new thread function, gettime.
* glib/gtimer.c: Use gettime instead of directly working with
the various system interfaces.
* gthread/gthread-impl.c:
* gthread/gthread-posix.c:
* gthread/gthread-win32.c: Implement gettime.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=5227
2006-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@google.com>
* glib/gthread.c (g_thread_init_glib): Run _g_atomic_thread_init
as the first of the full fledged initializers to allow the later
to potentially use atomic ints (which they currently do
not). (#342563, Peter Kjellerstedt)
2006-05-10 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@google.com>
* glib/gthread.c: Use g_atomic_pointer_set instead of old
homegrown version now that we have it. (#335198, Chris Wilson)
2006-05-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@google.com>
* glib/gthreadinit.h: Renamed to glib/gthreadprivate.h and moved
system thread identifier comparision and assignment macros from
glib/gthread.c to glib/gthreadprivate.h.
* glib/Makefile.am, glib/gatomic.c, glib/gconvert.c, glib/gmain.c,
glib/gmem.c, glib/gmessages.c, glib/grand.c, glib/gslice.c,
glib/gthread.c, glib/gutils.c, gthread/gthread-impl.c: Use
glib/gthreadprivate.h instead of glib/gthreadinit.h.
* gthread/gthread-impl.c: Use GSystemThread instead of GThread for
owner determination. This fixes#311043 and is mostly modeled
after the patch from jylefort@FreeBSD.org.
Thu Dec 1 17:32:46 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gslice.[hc]: new slice allocator implementation.
* tests/slice-test.c: added random slice allocation test.
* glib/gthread.[hc]: removed newly added private thread mem API.
* glib/gthreadinit.h:
* glib/gmessages.c:
* glib/gthread.c:
* glib/gmem.c: divided glib threading initialisation into three phases,
initialisation where private keys and messaging are not available (only
needed by gmem.c), initialisation without messaging but private keys
available (gslice.c, gmessage.c), and full fledged initialisers that
server the rest of glib. initialisation functions got renamed to reflect
the limitations of their corresponding phases.
* glib/gmem.c: removed memchunk code, defer allocations to
g_slice_* instead.
* glib/gmem.[hc]: removed g_slice_* skeletons.
* glib/glib.symbols: added g_slice_* symbols.
* configure.in: check for availability of posix_memalign(3), memalign(3)
and valloc(3).
* glib/Makefile.am: added gslice.[hc].
2005-11-17 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gbacktrace.c:
* glib/gdate.c:
* glib/gthread.c: const correctness fixes, found
by Arjan van de Ven and gcc.
Tue Nov 1 16:24:20 2005 Tim Janik <timj@imendio.com>
* glib/gmem.[hc]: prepared deprecation of GMemChunk and GAllocator.
added g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
an actuall allocator implementation for g_slice_*() is still pending.
* glib/gthread.[hc]: changes from a patch by Matthias Clasen.
changed GRealThread list to use in-structure *next; fields instead
of GSList, in order for thread iteration to not depenend on g_slice_*()
indirectly.
_g_thread_mem_private_get():
_g_thread_mem_private_set(): added accessors for private memory,
needed because the ordinary GPrivate implementation relies on GArray
and GSList and therefore indirectly on working g_slice_*() allocations.
* glib/gthread.[hc]:
g_thread_foreach(): new public API function to loop over all existing threads.
* glib/gdataset.c:
* glib/gstring.c:
* glib/gcache.c:
* glib/garray.c:
* glib/gqueue.c:
* glib/gslist.c:
* glib/glist.c:
* glib/ghash.c:
* glib/gtree.c:
* glib/ghook.c:
* glib/gmain.c:
* glib/gnode.c:
removed GAllocator and free list usages and accompanying locks.
use g_slice_*() API to allocate and cache small bits of memory.
* glib/ghook.h: removed GMemChunk field from public API.
* glib/gslist.h:
* glib/glist.h: deprecate allocator API, provide _free1() for consistency.
* glib/gnode.h: deprecate allocator API.
* glib/gmain.c: reordered GPollRec fields so g_slice_free_chain() can
be used for poll rec lists.
* glib/grel.c: removed mem chunk usage, and allocated tuples via g_slice_*().
g_relation_destroy(): free all tuples from the all_tuples hash table,
this effectively maintains the life time track keeping of tuples.
g_relation_delete_tuple(): free tuples which are removed from the
all_tuples hash table. this fixes a temporary leak that was present
in the memchunk code until the destruction of the relation.
2005-03-13 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
Make PLT-reduction work with gcc4, and don't include
everything in galias.h:
* glib/glib.symbols: Group symbols by header and source file.
* glib/makegalias.pl: Protect definitions by the same
preprocessor symbols used to guard the headers. Move
the alias declarations to a separate file which is
produced when calling makegalias.pl -def
* glib/Makefile.am (galiasdef.c): Add a rule to generate this
file.
* glib/*.c: Include galias.h after the other GLib headers,
include galiasdef.c at the bottom.
2004-12-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gutils.c (g_get_language_names): Update the returned
value after locale changes. (#160271, Christian Persch)
(_g_utils_thread_init): Initialize the language name cache
before going threaded.
* glib/gthread.c (g_thread_init_glib): Call _g_utils_thread_init().
* glib/gthreadinit.h: Add _g_utils_thread_init().
2004-10-26 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_get_windows_version): Make this
function thread-safe in the GLib style.
* glib/gthreadinit.h:
* glib/gwin32.c (_g_win32_thread_init): New function to
initialize the version.
* glib/gthread.c (g_thread_init_glib): Call
_g_win32_thread_init() from here.
2004-04-10 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
* glib/giowin32.c
* glib/gmain.c
* glib/gstrfuncs.c
* glib/gthread.c: Decorating variable definitions with
__declspec(dllexport) causes problems on Cygwin build, and isn't
really needed for a native Win32 build with mingw or MSVC, so
remove. (#138402, Roger Leigh)
* glib/libcharset/localcharset.c: Use Win32-specific code also on
Cygwin.
* tests/uri-test.c: Don't assume that local filenames are in UTF-8
on Cygwin, either. (#138412, Roger Leigh)
2004-02-26 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* configure.in, config.h.win32.in, glib/gthread.c: Removed the PID
niceness surrogate for thread priorities as requested by Tim. It
does more harm than good.
* glib/tmpl/threads.sgml: Updated to reflect removal of the PID
niceness surrogate for thread priorities.
2004-02-25 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* configure.in, glib/gthread.c: For the PID thread priorities
surrogate use gettid instead of getpid. This also works with nptl
(on linux-2.6), as well as with linuxthreads (on linux-2.4).
2003-07-09 Matthias Clasen <maclas@gmx.de>
Support for one-time initialization functions. (#69668, Sebastian Wilhelmi)
* configure.in: Check whether double checked locking is safe, define g_once() in
glibconfig.h accordingly.
* glib/gthread.h: Add GOnce, GOnceStatus, G_ONCE_INIT and g_once_impl.
* glib/gthread.c (g_once_impl): Fallback implementation using a mutex if double checked
locking is unsafe.
* tests/thread-test.c: Add tests for g_once().
2003-03-14 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
* glib/gthread.c: Do not define function g_thread_init_glib, if
not G_THREADS_ENABLED. It's not called bu g_thread_init() then,
but calls other, in that case undefined functions.
2003-02-14 Sebastian Wilhelmi <seppi@seppi.de>
Fixes for #101264 and #99372:
* glib/gconvert.h, glib/gmain.c, glib/gmem.c, glib/gmessages.c,
glib/grand.c: Include gthreadinit.h and rename the thread
initialization functions a bit and let them start with _, so that
later we can stop exporting them.
* glib/gmem.c, glib/gmessages.c: Move the g_private_new() calls to
new functions. They have to be called after setting
g_threads_got_initialized to TRUE (see #101264).
* glib/gthread.c: Include gthreadinit.h. Renamed g_mutex_init() to
g_thread_init_glib(). Call the thread initialization functions
(which are not allowed to call g_private_new), then set
g_threads_got_initialized to TRUE, then call the other thread
initialization functions (which must not call anything but
g_private_new()).
* glib/gthreadinit.h: New private header to cleanly declare all
thread initialization functions.
* gthread/gthread-impl.c: Include gthreadinit.h. In
g_thread_init() just call g_thread_init_glib(), which in turn calls the
other functions (see #99372).
* glib/Makefile.am: Added gthreadinit.h.
Sat Dec 14 21:10:57 2002 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/gthread.h: Mark the contents of the strucures
in this file /*< private >*/
* glib/gthread.[ch]: Rename the 'write' field of the
structure to 'have_writer' to avoid any possible
conflict with system headers. (#90549, Morten Welinder)
2002-08-06 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/gthread.c: Set the normal PID surrogate priority according
to getpid() to avoid errors for niced processes. (#86116)
* gthread/gthread-impl.c, gthread/gthread-posix.c,
gthread/gthread-solaris.c: Do the same for the posix/dce
implementation. Solaris still needs to set priority of the main
thread, because all unbound threads will schedule according to
that value and it defaults to 0 (the minimal value).
2002-02-04 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/gthread.c (g_thread_create_full): Delay allocation until
after all g_return_val_if_fail ().
* glib/gthread.h: Make depth member guint for cosmetic reasons.
* glib/gthread.c: (g_static_rec_mutex_unlock_full): depth should
be unsigned. All that spotted by Jrgen Viksell
<jorgen.viksell@telia.com>
2001-09-19 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/gthread.h (GThreadFunctions): Add thread_equal function to
allow for platform defined function to compare two threads.
* glib/gthread.c: Use g_thread_functions_for_glib_use.thread_equal
when non-NULL instead of ==.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Add g_thread_equal_posix_impl and
add to the function vector g_thread_functions_for_glib_use_default.
* gthread/gthread-solaris.c, gthread/gthread-win32.c: Add NULL
as equal function, as on those two platforms you don't need an
equal function.
2001-08-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib/gthread.h, glib/gthread.c: Add 'want_to_read' to
GStaticRWLock to avoid calling g_cond_broadcast, when no one is
waiting.
Sat Jun 30 15:49:10 2001 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glib/gmain.[ch]: (Mostly patch from Sebastian Wilhemi)
Make some changes to the way that GMainContext works:
- a GMainContext is no longer associated with a single
thread, but any thread can acquire ownership
of thread and iterate.
- There is a facility g_main_context_wait() for
non-owner-threads to wait either for ownership
or for a condition to be broadcast.
- For efficiency, GMainLoop just piggybacks of
of the loops mutex / condition instead of
having a separate mutex/condition for each
GMainLoop.
* glib/gthread.[ch]: Remove hacks to store the thread's
GMainContext in the GThread structures, since we
no longer have the GMainContext <=> GThread correspondence.
* glib/gmain.[ch]: Make g_main_context_wakeup() public
so someone could completely duplicate GMainLoop
with the public API.
* tests/mainloop-test: Fix up to the new API. Decidedly
doesn't work at the moment, but that may be the IO
channel changes, or preexisting locking problems.
2001-05-22 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.def: g_thread_create renamed to g_thread_create_full.
* gthread.c: memcpy is not necessary here. We can simply use
struct assignment.
* gmessages.c: Fix compilation error on win32. Added
GFileDescriptor, wich is gint on Unix and FILE* on win32.
2001-05-18 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Renamed g_thread_create to
g_thread_create_full and added macro g_thread_create, which omits
'stack_size', 'bound' and 'priority' parameters. Also removed
'bound' from GThread struct.
* gthreadpool.h, gthreadpool.c: Adapted GThreadPool to the above
changes. GThreadPool lost the 'priority' and 'bound'
members. g_thread_pool_new the 'stack_size', 'bound' and
'priority' parameters.
* tests/mainloop-test.c, tests/thread-test.c,
tests/threadpool-test.c: Adapted to the above changes.
2001-05-09 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Renamed 'value' and 'arg' to 'data' and
'thread_func' to 'func' to make it more consistent with the rest
of GLib.
* gthreadpool.c, gthreadpool.h: Moved 'stack_size' from the public
members of GThreadPool to the private ones. Renamed 'thread_func'
to 'func' as above. Moved up 'user_data' in g_thead_pool_new
argument list and in GThreadPool struct.
2001-05-08 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gmain.c, gthread.c, gthread.h: Moved func and arg members from
GRealThread to GThread, such that they can be accessed by the
user.
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Due to popular demand (Tim being the
populus here ;-) threads now have a 'return value', which is
returned by g_thread_join and is either the return of the topmost
thread function or the value given to g_thread_exit.
* gthreadpool.c, tests/mainloop-test.c, tests/thread-test.c:
Adapted to the above change.
2001-04-02 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gmain.c: Use the new GRealThread member "context" instead of a
GStaticPrivate to store the thread specific main loop context.
* gthread.c: Added "context" member to GRealThread and updated
g_thread_create, g_thread_self and g_thread_cleanup accordingly.
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Removed the functions
g_static_private_(get|set)_for_thread and adapted
g_static_private_(get|set) and g_static_private_free accordingly.
2001-02-21 Tor Lillqvist <tml@iki.fi>
Cygwin support contributed by Stefan Ondrejicka
<ondrej@idata.sk>. Hopefully I got it all in while simultaneously
adding support for auto*/libtool for mingw.
* Makefile.am: Changes for auto* support on Cygwin and Win32. Do
still distribute the hand-written makefiles and *.win32.in files,
though. Use GIO, GSPAWN and PLATFORMDEP macros set by configure.
Use -no-undefined. Pass -export-symbols glib.def to libtool.
* configure.in: Define G_PLATFORM_WIN32 on both pure Win32 (mingw)
and Cygwin. Add AC_CYGWIN, AC_EXEEXT and AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL
calls for Cygwin and mingw support. Check for %I64u guint64
format (in MS C library). Set G_MODULE_IMPL on mingw and
Cygwin. Use ac_object and ac_exeext. Set GIO, GSPAWN, PLATFORMDEP
and G_LIBS_EXTRA. Compile timeloop only on Unix. Define OS_WIN32
automake conditional on Win32.
* glib.h: Include gwin32.h also on Cygwin.
* gfileutils.c (get_contents_posix): Use O_BINARY (defined as 0 on
Unix) for Cygwin's sake.
* gtimer.c (GETTIME): Reduce #ifdefs, use a macro GETTIME().
* gconvert.c
* gthread.c
* gutf8.c
* gutils.c: For code needed both on Cygwin and native Win32,
test for G_PLATFORM_WIN32.
* gmarkup.h: Use G_BEGIN_DECLS and G_END_DECLS.
* gtypes.h: Refine GLIB_VAR definition. Also check for DLL_EXPORT
in case compiling a static library on Win32 or Cygwin.
* gwin32.c: No <direct.h> on Cygwin. No need for ftruncate() or
dirent emulation on Cygwin.
(get_package_directory_from_module) Convert return value from
GetModuleFileName() to POSIX path on Cygwin.
* tests/Makefile.am (progs_LDADD): Link with libglib, libgthread
and libgmodule as appropriate. Use -no-undefined.
* gbacktrace.c: Move #ifdefs around a bit on Win32.
* gshell.c (unquote_string_inplace): Make static.
2001-02-23 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread.h (struct _GThread): Change the order to match the order
in g_thread_create().
* gthread.c (g_static_rec_mutex_lock_full): Also do the right
thing (behave like 'depth' calls to g_static_rec_mutex_lock) for a
mutex, that is already locked.
* glib/tmpl/threads.sgml: Big update. Almost ready.
* glib/tmpl/async_queues.sgml: Typo.
* glib/glib-sections.txt: Added g_static_rec_mutex_init,
g_static_rec_mutex_free, g_static_rw_lock_init,
g_static_private_init and g_static_private_free.
* glib/glib-overrides.txt: Added g_thread_yield and g_thread_exit.
2001-02-15 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* acconfig.h, configure.in: Reverted the changes necessary to
enlarge the system thread for G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE.
* gthread.c: Now implement G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE in gthread.c
instead of gthread/gthread-posix.c. While the latter has the
advantage, that it is conceptually cleaner, it makes
g_thread_self_posix_impl _very_ slow and that hurts
GStaticRecMutex and other things. So the new version is less
clean, but faster.
* gthread-posix.c: Removed the G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE
implementation, which is now in gthread.c.
2001-02-13 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Added functions g_static_rec_mutex_init,
g_static_rec_mutex_free, g_static_private_init,
g_static_private_free, g_static_rw_lock_init to allow the usage of
all those types dynamically. (g_static_rw_lock_free already
existed). Aditionally freed static_private indeces are reused
now. Untill now the array would just grow if you would use more
and more static_private. That required adding a slist of all
running threads, which could potentially be of good use later. It
is not exported however. Renamed a LOCK and small indentation
fixes.
* tests/thread-test.c: Test the new static_private index freing
and reusing feature.
2001-02-01 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Added g_static_mutex_init to allow
initialization of a GStaticMutex, that can not be initialized with
G_STATIC_MUTEX_INIT, for example in allocated structures.
* glib/tmpl/threads.sgml, glib/glib-sections.txt: Added
documentation for g_static_mutex_init().
WCVS: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
2001-01-30 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread/gthread-impl.c (g_thread_init_with_errorcheck_mutexes): Call
g_thread_impl_init(), as g_thread_init won't call it.
* glib/glib-sections.txt, glib/tmpl/threads.sgml: Added
g_static_mutex_free
* gthread.c, gthread.h: Added g_static_mutex_free to allow using
GStaticMutexes with limited lifetime without leaking.
* configure.in: GStaticMutex doesn't have to provide extra space
for debugging information for G_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES, as then the
non-default implementation (runtime_mutex) is used anyway.
2001-01-29 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread.c: Broadcast the condition, if there are waiting
readers, as all might read at the same time. Only signal the
writer thread, if there are no more readers.
* gthread/gthread-impl.c (g_mutex_free_errorcheck_impl): Add
new check to errorcheck mutexes to abort, if a locked mutex is freed.
2000-11-28 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread-impl.c: Revamped errorcheck mutexes and added errorcheck
cond_wait() and cond_timed_wait() funtions. This makes he whole
thing work. Now we only show the location of the locking/unlocking
for -DG_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES and not the name of the mutex.
* gthread.c: Set the thread data before locking the mutex, because
the locking call might use g_thread_self ().
* gthread.h: Do only show the location of the locking/unlocking
for -DG_ERRORCHECK_MUTEXES and not the name of the mutex. Add the
errorcheck capability for g_cond_wait and g_cond_timed_wait as
well.
2000-11-21 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Add a surrogate for thread priorities using PID
niceness for systems with no thread priorities and different PIDs
for threads of the same process (most notably: Linux). Define
G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE in that case, as used by
gthread-posix.c. Also make the system thread bigger by
sizeof (long) to contain the thread's PID.
* gfileutils.c: Include stdlib.h for mkstemp prototype.
* gthread.c: Add priority range checks to the affected functions.
* gthreadpool.c: Remove unused variable.
* gthread-impl.c, gthread-posix.c, gthread-solaris.c: Removed
g_thread_map_priority function in favour of the
g_thread_priority_map array. Initialize the array with
PRIORITY_{...}_VALUE, if available and interpolate beetween the
bounds if .._NORMAL_.. and .._HIGH_.. are not available.
* gthread-posix.c: If we should use the PID niceness as a
surrogate for thread priorities (G_THREAD_USE_PID_SURROGATE is
defined), then disable normal priority handling and use PIDs and
setpriority() instead. Depends on the thread to write its PID into
the place after the thread id right after thread creation.
2000-11-13 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* gthread.c (g_static_rec_mutex_*): Made recursive mutexes also
work when the thread system is not (yet) initialized.
2000-09-01 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* glib.h: Include gerror.h before it is used for some g_thread_*
functions.
* gthread.c, gthreadpool.c, glib.h: Enable error reporting for
thread creation, namly for g_thread_create, g_thread_pool_new,
g_thread_pool_push and g_thread_pool_set_max_threads.
* tests/thread-test.c, tests/threadpool-test.c: Adapted
accordingly.
* gthread-posix.c (g_thread_create_posix_impl): Use GError to
report errors.

* *.[hc]: applied patch from Andreas Persenius <ndap@swipnet.se> that
updates the license headers to the GNU Lesser General Public License,
as well as updating the copyright year to 2000.
2000-03-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in: Added the missing POSIX_NO_YIELD and
POSIX_NO_PRIORITIES warning messages.
* configure.in: Use AC_TRY_RUN instead of AC_TRY_LINK, to test for
real thread support. On solaris pthread_create can be linked to
even in -lc, but it doesn't work then.
* configure.in: Don't use priorities for threads, when the
minimal/maximal priorities couldn't be determined at configure
time.
* configure.in, gthread.c: Always define GSystemThread in
glibconfig.h to represent a system thread.
* configure.in: Do not use native recursive threads, when
possibe. We use some features, that they do not expose (namely the
depth counter).
* glib.h, gthread.c: Redefined GStaticRecMutex. The functions are
now implemented in a different way, which should be way
faster. Alsothere are now functions g_static_rec_mutex_unlock_full
and g_static_rec_mutex_lock_full to leave/enter a recursive mutex
completly.
* gthread.c (g_thread_self): Do not test the system_thread to be
non-zero to speed things up.
* gthread.c (g_mutex_init): Therefore set the system_thread of the
main thread here.
* tests/thread-test.c: Rerun all tests once again, but this time
we fool the system into thinking, that the available thread system
is not native, but userprovided.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Don't use priorities for threads,
when the minimal/maximal priorities couldn't be determined at
configure time.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c: Don't check for errors, when
setting the scope of a tread to system, as some posix
implementations can't do that and we don't want the thing to
fail because of that.

* acconfig.h, config.h.win32.in, configure.in: Renamed
GLIB_SIZEOF_PTHREAD_T to GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to reflect
changed meaning.
* configure.in: Cope with systems, that have a pthread_t type,
that is not a pointer. Hint from Karl Nelson
<kenelson@ece.ucdavis.edu>. Define GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD to 4
for Solaris. Cope with systems, that have no default mutex
initialize, like obviously most DCE systems.
* glib.h, gthread.c: Changed the prototype of thread_create and
thread_self to return the system thread into provided memory
instead of a return value. This is necessary, as HPUX has a
pthread_t, that is bigger than the biggest integral type there.
* gthread.c: system_thread is no longer a pointer, but an memory
area of size GLIB_SIZEOF_SYSTEM_THREAD. Changed the
zeroinitialization and the tests for zeroness accordingly.
* README.win32: Update the pthreads snapshot version we want.
Advice how to hand-expand the makefile.*.in files.
* config.h.win32.in: Define values needed by Sebastian Wilhelmi's
new thread stuff.
* glib.def: Add new functions.
* glibconfig.h.win32.in: Update the pthreads snapshot version.
Fix typo.
* gthread.c: Include config.h, guard inclusion of unistd.h. When
using gcc on Win32, g_thread_functions_for_glib_use must be marked
for export here, too.
* gtimer.c: Implement g_usleep on native Win32 using Sleep (which
only has millisecond granularity, though).
* makefile.cygwin.in
* makefile.msc.in: Update pthreads snapshot version. File
name changes. Remove testgthread.
* tests/makefile.cygwin.in
* tests/makefile.msc.in: Add thread-test. Link with gthread lib.
* gthread-posix.c: Guard pthread_attr_setscope call with test
for _POSIX_THREAD_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING, which should be defined
in a <pthread.h> that supports that feature.
1999-06-17 Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>
* configure.in, acglib.m4, acconfig.h, glib.h, gthread.c:
Completed the thread support in GLib. Thread creation,
prioritizing threads, yielding, joining threads as well as
reader/writer locks and recursive mutexes are now in place. Please
test heavily on your platform. It is so far tested on
Linux/i386/pthreads, Solaris/Sparc/pthreads and
Solaris/Sparc/solaristhreads.
* gtimer.c, glib.h: Implement g_usleep (gulong microseconds) for
thread safe sleeping. (sleep() is not MT-safe at all!)
* gutils.c: Avoid compiler warning.
* tests/Makefile.am, tests/thread-test.c: New program to test some
aspects of the thread implementation.
* gthread.c, Makefile.am: Renamed from gmutex.c to reflect the
change of content.
* configure.in: Purged all appearances of nspr.
* gthread/gthread-posix.c, gthread-solaris.c: Added the native
implementations for the GLib's extended thread support.
* gthread/gthread-nspr.c: Removed for good. NSPR is nothing we
would want to build upon.
* gthread/gthread.c: Renamed to gthread-impl.c to avoid
confusion with ../gthread.c (Formerly known as the file called
gmutex.c)
* gthread/testgthread.c: Removed. The new and much extended
tests are in ../tests/thread-test.c.
* gthread/Makefile.am: Changed to reflect the changes above.
