In practice, with this implementation we never need to make a system call.
We get the main thread's tid (which is the same as our pid) back from
the set_tid_address system call we have to make during initialization.
A new pthread will have the same pid as its parent, and a fork child's
main (and only) thread will have a pid equal to its tid, which we get for
free from the kernel before clone returns.
The only time we'd actually have to make a getpid system call now is if
we take a signal during fork and the signal handler calls getpid. (That,
or we call getpid in the dynamic linker while it's still dealing with its
own relocations and hasn't even set up the main thread yet.)

Add 64-bit bionic implementation for denver. memcpy/memset are
denver-specific optimized. Use generic version of other routines.

vfork() was removed from POSIX 2008, so this replaces its implementation
with a call to fork().

This function has been removed from POSIX.
Unfortunately, we can't leave #define index(a, b) strchr((a), (b)) in its place
because defining a preprocessor macro for index() breaks a whole lot of code.

These symbols are still defined for LP32 for binary compatibility, but
the declarations have been replaced with the POSIX recommended #defines.

System calls can be pretty slow. This is mako, which has one of our
lowest latencies:
iterations ns/op
BM_unistd_getpid 10000000 209
BM_unistd_gettid 200000000 8

The problem with the original patch was that using syscall(3) means that
errno can be set, but pthread_create(3) was abusing the TLS errno slot as
a pthread_mutex_t for the thread startup handshake.
There was also a mistake in the check for syscall failures --- it should
have checked against -1 instead of 0 (not just because that's the default
idiom, but also here because futex(2) can legitimately return values > 0).
This patch stops abusing the TLS errno slot and adds a pthread_mutex_t to
pthread_internal_t instead. (Note that for LP64 sizeof(pthread_mutex_t) >
sizeof(uintptr_t), so we could potentially clobber other TLS slots too.)
I've also rewritten the LP32 compatibility stubs to directly reuse the
code from the .h file.
This reverts commit 75c55ff84e.

This reverts commit 8167dd7cb9.
For some reason I thought the bcopy change was bzero. The bcopy code doesn't pass our tests, so reverting until I can figure out what's wrong.

Since __bionic_clone uses tail-call to invoke __bionic_clone_entry,
at runtime the unwinder will reach the stack of the clone() function,
which belongs to the parent thread, if the link register is not cleared.

glibc doesn't have tkill or tgkill and says "use syscall(3) instead".
I've left tgkill since it's quite widely used, but there's no reason
to have tkill as well.

to add the constants at all.)
