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.

To use jemalloc, add MALLOC_IMPL = jemalloc in a board config file
and you get the new version automatically.
Update the pthread_create_key tests since jemalloc uses a few keys.
Add a new test to verify memalign works as expected.

pthread_once is nice for decoupling, but it makes resource availability less
predictable, which is a bad thing.
This fixes a test failure if uselocale(3) is called before
pthread.pthread_key_create_lots runs.

I fixed this bug a while back, but didn't remove it from the list,
could have added a better test, and could have written clearer code
that didn't require a comment.

Let the kernel keep pthread_internal_t::tid updated, including
across forks and for the main thread. This then lets us fix
pthread_join to only return after the thread has really exited.
Also fix the thread attributes of the main thread so we don't
unmap the main thread's stack (which is really owned by the
dynamic linker and contains things like environment variables),
which fixes crashes when joining with an exited main thread
and also fixes problems reported publicly with accessing environment
variables after the main thread exits (for which I've added a new
unit test).
In passing I also fixed a bug where if the clone(2) inside
pthread_create(3) fails, we'd unmap the child's stack and TLS (which
contains the mutex) and then try to unlock the mutex. Boom! It wasn't
until after I'd uploaded the fix for this that I came across a new
public bug reporting this exact failure.

If __get_tls has the right type, a lot of confusing casting can disappear.
It was probably a mistake that __get_tls was exposed as a function for mips
and x86 (but not arm), so let's (a) ensure that the __get_tls function
always matches the macro, (b) that we have the function for arm too, and
(c) that we don't have the function for any 64-bit architecture.

Although 'register' is deprecated, we need to use v1, and there's

In c++11, register has been deprecated, and
libc is now built as gnu++11
From the documentation:
A register specifier is a hint to the implementation
that the variable so declared will be heavily used.
[ Note: The hint can be ignored and in most implementations
it will be ignored if the address of the variable is taken.
This use is deprecated (see D.2)

KernelArgumentBlock is defined as a class in KernelArgumentBlock.h, but
forward declarations refer to it as a struct.
While this is essentially the same, the mismatch causes a compiler
warning in clang (and may cause warnings in future versions of gcc) in
code that is supposed to be compiled with -Werror.

Fix the pthread_setname_np test to take into account that emulator kernels are
so old that they don't support setting the name of other threads.
The CLONE_DETACHED thread is obsolete since 2.5 kernels.
Rename kernel_id to tid.
Fix the signature of __pthread_clone.
Clean up the clone and pthread_setname_np implementations slightly.

POSIX says pthread_create returns EAGAIN, not ENOMEM.
Also pull pthread_attr_t functions into their own file.
Also pull pthread_setname_np into its own file.
Also remove unnecessary #includes from pthread_key.cpp.
Also account for those pthread keys used internally by bionic,
so they don't count against the number of keys available to user
code. (They do with glibc, but glibc's limit is the much more
generous 1024.)
Also factor out the common errno-restoring idiom to reduce gotos.

This was originally motivated by noticing that we were setting the
wrong bits for the well-known tls entries. That was a harmless bug
because none of the well-known tls entries has a destructor, but
it's best not to leave land mines lying around.
Also add some missing POSIX constants, a new test, and fix
pthread_key_create's return value when we hit the limit.

There's now only one place where we deal with this stuff, it only needs to
be parsed once by the dynamic linker (rather than by each recipient), and it's
now easier for us to get hold of auxv data early on.

The AT_RANDOM changes broke setuid / setgid executables
such as "ping". When the linker executes a setuid program,
it cleans the environment, removing any invalid environment
entries, and adding "NULL"s to the end of the environment
array for each removed variable. Later on, we try to determine
the location of the aux environment variable, and get tripped
up by these extra NULLs.
Reverting this patch will get setuid executables working again,
but getauxval() is still broken for setuid programs because of
this bug.
This reverts commit e3a49a8661.

Populate the stack canaries from the kernel supplied
AT_RANDOM value, which doesn't involve any system calls.
This is slightly faster (6 fewer syscalls) and avoids
unnecessarily reading /dev/urandom, which depletes entropy.

Based on a pair of patches from Intel:

For x86, this patch supports _both_ the global that ARM/MIPS use
and the per-thread TLS entry (%gs:20) that GCC uses by default. This
lets us support binaries built with any x86 toolchain (right now,
the NDK is emitting x86 code that uses the global).
I've also extended the original tests to cover ARM/MIPS too, and
be a little more thorough for x86.

I gave up trying to use the usual thread-local buffer idiom; calls to
calloc(3) and free(3) from any of the "dl" functions -- which live in
the dynamic linker -- end up resolving to the dynamic linker's stubs.
I tried to work around that, but was just making things more complicated.
This alternative costs us a well-known TLS slot (instead of the
dynamically-allocated TLS slot we'd have used otherwise, so no difference
there), plus an extra buffer inside every pthread_internal_t.

Since e19d702b8e, dlsym and friends use recursive mutexes that
require the current thread id, which is not available before the libc
constructor. This prevents us from using dlsym() in .preinit_array.
This change moves TLS initialization from libc constructor to the earliest
possible point - immediately after linker itself is relocated. As a result,
pthread_internal_t for the initial thread is available from the start.
As a bonus, values stored in TLS in .preinit_array are not lost when libc is
initialized.

For performance reasons, we don't call the kernel helper. Instead, we directly
access the TLS register on ARMv6 and higher. For ARMv5TE, keep using the hard-coded
address populated by the kernel on each task switch.
NOTE: Since we don't call the kernel helper, this must precisely match your
kernel configuration. This is controlled by setting the ARCH_ARM_HAVE_TLS_REGISTER
variable to 'true' in your board configuration file.
the TLS access functions to use the kernel helper.
This Fix is verified on ST Ericsson's U8500 platform and Submitted on behalf of a third-party:
Surinder-pal SINGH from STMicroelectronics.
This is needed to properly initialize the C runtime when libc.so
is loaded by the dynamic linker.
Move the temporary TLS setup before the first system call, just
in case something really horrible happens, we won't crash when
trying to write an error code in 'errno'
Remove the broken TLS_SLOT_THREAD_ID setup. First, this slot
should normally receive the address of a pthread_internal_t,
not a kernel thread identifier. Second, it is never used by
the linker anyway.
Also remove an obsolete comment.
