From ac31bf278d9ed855e6765bb71d64ed19d2b7c0f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Felker Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2014 04:49:49 -0400 Subject: simplify errno implementation the motivation for the errno_ptr field in the thread structure, which this commit removes, was to allow the main thread's errno to keep its address when lazy thread pointer initialization was used. &errno was evaluated prior to setting up the thread pointer and stored in errno_ptr for the main thread; subsequently created threads would have errno_ptr pointing to their own errno_val in the thread structure. since lazy initialization was removed, there is no need for this extra level of indirection; __errno_location can simply return the address of the thread's errno_val directly. this does cause &errno to change, but the change happens before entry to application code, and thus is not observable. --- src/internal/pthread_impl.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'src/internal') diff --git a/src/internal/pthread_impl.h b/src/internal/pthread_impl.h index 2e910b3e..650e8115 100644 --- a/src/internal/pthread_impl.h +++ b/src/internal/pthread_impl.h @@ -18,7 +18,7 @@ struct pthread { uintptr_t sysinfo; uintptr_t canary; pid_t tid, pid; - int tsd_used, errno_val, *errno_ptr; + int tsd_used, errno_val; volatile int cancel, canceldisable, cancelasync; int detached; unsigned char *map_base; -- cgit v1.2.1
