From a9f5aa1cc96fc2c71f19a9c3e9dcbee0e78f83ca Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Frysinger Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2005 03:13:04 +0000 Subject: rename current stable linuxthreads to linuxthreads.old to prepare for import of latest glibc version --- libpthread/linuxthreads/Changes | 85 ----------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 85 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 libpthread/linuxthreads/Changes (limited to 'libpthread/linuxthreads/Changes') diff --git a/libpthread/linuxthreads/Changes b/libpthread/linuxthreads/Changes deleted file mode 100644 index b213f36c5..000000000 --- a/libpthread/linuxthreads/Changes +++ /dev/null @@ -1,85 +0,0 @@ -Release 0.9: -- more ports (SH, IA-64, s390) -- many bug fixes -- timed sync object wait functions -- barrier implementation -- spinlocks implementation -- thread register on x86 -- variable stack size and position on some platforms - -Release 0.8: -(ehmm, forgot to update, don't know anymore) - -Release 0.7: -- Destructors for thread-specific data now conform to the POSIX semantics - (call destructors again if non-NULL TSD remains after a round of - destruction). -- Implemented thread-specific data as a sparse array, allows more TSD keys - and smaller thread descriptors (Ulrich Drepper). -- Added "error checking" mutexes. -- Protect against multiple sigwait() on the same signals. -- Simplified implementation of semaphores when compare_and_swap is - not available. -- Fixed bug in fork() where stdin was closed if fork() was called before - the first pthread_create(). -- Fixed bug in the gethostby*_r functions (bad result if null bytes - in addresses). -- Typos in manual pages corrected. -- First cut at a PowerPC port (not working yet, runs into problems - with gcc and with the C library). - -Release 0.6: -- Validation of thread identifiers: no more crashes when operating on - a thread that has exited (based on Pavel Krauz's ideas). -- Added fallback implementation of semaphores for the 386 and the - Sparc. -- Fixed a bug in signal handling causing false restarts of suspended - threads. -- Fixed a bug in realtime scheduling causing all threads to have - default scheduling on Ix86 with libc5. -- With realtime scheduling, unlocking a mutex now restarts the - highest priority thread waiting on the mutex, not the - first-suspended thread (Richard Neitzel). -- Timing a process now returns cumulative times for all threads, not - just times for the initial thread (suggested by Wolfram Gloger). -- Cleaned up name space (internal defs prefixed by __, weak aliases - for non-portable extensions). -- MIPS port (contributed by Ralf Baechle). - -Release 0.5: -- Signal-safe semaphores a la POSIX 1003.1b added. -- Locking bug in pthread_mutex_trylock over recursive mutexes fixed. -- Race conditions in thread cancellation fixed. -- Sparc port (contributed by Miguel de Icaza). -- Support for getpwnam_r and getpwuid_r. -- Added pthread_kill_other_threads_np to be used in conjunction with - exec*(). - -Release 0.4: -- Manual pages for all functions. -- Synchronization bug causing accumulation of zombie processes fixed. -- Race condition in pthread_cond_timedwait fixed. -- Recursive mutexes are back by popular demand. -- Partial support for realtime scheduling (initiated by Richard Neitzel). -- pthread.h cleaned up a lot: now C++ compatible, added missing "const" - qualifiers, added short documentation, put to GNU libc standards - for name space pollution (Ulrich Drepper). -- Motorola 68k port (contributed by Andreas Schwab). -- Interaction with fork(2) cleaned up a lot. - -Release 0.3: -- Thread creation and reclaimation now performed by a centralized - "thread manager" thread. -- Removed recursive mutexes to make regular mutexes more efficient. -- Now available as a shared library (contributed by Richard Henderson). -- Alpha port (contributed by Richard Henderson). -- Fixed many small discrepancies with Posix 1003.1c. -- Put under the LGPL instead of the GPL. - -Release 0.2: -- Reentrant libc functions (adapted from libc 5.3.9 by Peeter Joot) -- pthread_cond_wait did not reacquire the mutex correctly on return -- More efficient pthread_cond_broadcast - -Release 0.1: -- First public release -- cgit v1.2.3
