nptl: Fix sem_wait and sem_timedwait cancellation (BZ#18243)
This patch fixes both sem_wait and sem_timedwait cancellation point for
uncontended case. In this scenario only atomics are involved and thus
the futex cancellable call is not issue and a pending cancellation signal
is not handled.
The fix is straighforward by calling pthread_testcancel is both function
start. Although it would be simpler to call CANCELLATION_P directly, I
decided to add an internal pthread_testcancel alias and use it to export
less internal implementation on such function. A possible change on
how pthread_testcancel is internally implemented would lead to either
continue to force use CANCELLATION_P or to adjust its every use.
GLIBC testcase also does have tests for uncontended cases, test-cancel12
and test-cancel14.c, however both are flawed by adding another
cancellation point just after thread pthread_cleanup_pop:
47 static void *
48 tf (void *arg)
49 {
50 pthread_cleanup_push (cleanup, NULL);
51
52 int e = pthread_barrier_wait (&bar);
53 if (e != 0 && e != PTHREAD_BARRIER_SERIAL_THREAD)
54 {
55 puts ("tf: 1st barrier_wait failed");
56 exit (1);
57 }
58
59 /* This call should block and be cancelable. */
60 sem_wait (&sem);
61
62 pthread_cleanup_pop (0);
63
64 puts ("sem_wait returned");
65
66 return NULL;
67 }
So sem_{timed}wait does not act on cancellation, pthread_cleanup_pop executes
'cleanup' and then 'puts' acts on cancellation. Since pthread_cleanup_pop
removed the clean-up handler, it will ran only once and thus it won't accuse
an error to indicate sem_wait has not acted on the cancellation signal.
This patch also fixes this behavior by removing the cancellation point 'puts'.
It also adds some cleanup on all sem_{timed}wait cancel tests.
It partially fixes BZ #18243. Checked on x86_64.
