Patch: posix-threads code update


This patch improves the posix-threads code. It should fix a lot of bugs,
improve portability, and reduce code complexity.

The major changes are:

1. We no longer (ever) use the platform-native implementation of
recursive mutexes. These are a non-standard extension to the
posix-threads spec, are buggy on some platforms when they do exist, and
do not interact well with pthread_cond_wait(). Instead, we now implement
recursion ourselves in the _Jv_MutexLock()/_Jv_MutexUnlock() calls.

2. We now use our own interruptable condition variables to implement
wait()/sleep()/join(). Each thread has its own associated 'native'
condition variable and mutex that is used to implement waiting. For each
libgcj condition variable, a linked list of threads waiting on that
variable is maintained. When a condition variable is notified, it picks
one waiting thread, signals it, and removes it from the linked list of
waiters (wait set). When a thread is interrupted (or if a wait timeout
occurs), the thread removes itself from the wait set for the condition
variable it is waiting on. This implementation is based on a suggestion
from Tom Tromey (thanks, Tom).

The patch also fixes a few other threads bugs, which should be
self-explanitory.

I'm awaiting review of this code. Enjoy!

regards

2000-03-23  Bryce McKinlay  <bryce@albatross.co.nz>

	* Makefile.in: New #defines and friends for Thread.h.
	* posix-threads.cc: (struct starter): Remove `object'.
	(_Jv_CondWait): Use interruptable condition variables and new
	recursive mutexes.
	(_Jv_CondNotify): Ditto.
	(_Jv_CondNotifyAll): Ditto.
	(_Jv_ThreadInterrupt): Set thread interrupt flag directly. Interrupt
	the target thread by signaling its wait condition.
	(_Jv_ThreadInitData): Set `thread_obj' in the thread data struct,
	not the starter struct. Initialize wait_mutex and wait_cond.
	(_Jv_MutexLock): New recursive mutex implementation. Moved from 
	posix-threads.h.
	(_Jv_MutexUnlock): Ditto.
	(really_start): Set info->data->thread from pthread_self() to work 
	around a race condition.	
	* java/lang/Thread.java: (isInterrupted_): Renamed to overloaded
	`isInterrupted(boolean)'. Clear interrupted flag if clear_flag is
	set.
	startable_flag: New private field.
	(Thread): Initialize `startable_flag'.
	(toString): Check for null thread group.
	* java/lang/natThread.cc: (struct natThread): New fields 
	`join_mutex', `join_cond'. Removed fields `joiner', `next'.
	(class locker): Removed.
	(initialize_native): Initialize `join_cond' and `join_mutex'.
	(interrupt): Now just calls _Jv_ThreadInterrupt().
	(join): Simplified. Just wait on the target thread's join condition.
	(finish_): Remove join list code. Unset thread group. Signal
	potential joiners by notifying the dying threads join_cond.
	(start): Check for illegal restarts.
	* java/lang/natObject.cc: Check for return value of _Jv_CondWait and
	act appropriatly.
	* include/posix-threads.h: Remove all HAVE_RECURSIVE_MUTEX related
	#defines and #ifdefs.
	(struct _Jv_Thread_t): New fields `thread_obj', `wait_cond',
	`wait_mutex', `next'.
	(struct _Jv_ConditionVariable_t): Declare as a struct.
	(struct _Jv_Mutex_t): New recursive implementation.
	(_Jv_PthreadCheckMonitor): Reimplemented. Simple `owner' check.
	_Jv_HaveCondDestroy: Never define this for posix-threads.
	(_Jv_CondNotify): Remove inline implementation(s), prototype instead.
	(_Jv_CondNotifyAll): Ditto.
	(_Jv_MutexLock): Ditto.
	(_Jv_MutexUnlock): Ditto.
	(_Jv_MutexInit): Changed to reflect new mutex implementation.
	(_Jv_MutexDestroy): Ditto.
	(_Jv_CondDestroy): Removed.
