2017-01-09Update MicroBlaze localplt.data.Joseph Myers
This patch updates the MicroBlaze localplt.data based on the results of a build with build-many-glibcs.py. This is simply an empirical update; quite possibly the port could be optimized to remove more local PLT entry usage. Tested (compilation tests) with build-many-glibcs.py. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/microblaze/localplt.data (__pread64): Add libc.so PLT entry. (__tls_get_addr): Make ld.so PLT entry optional.
2017-01-09Move fortified explicit_bzero back to string3Adhemerval Zanella
Commit 38765ab68f329fd moved the bzero, bcopy, and explicit_bzero fortified macros to a common header (strings_fortified.h). However the side effect is a fortified explicit_bzero is defined when including only strings.h. This patch moves back the fortified explicit_bzero definition to strings3.h header. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu. * string/bits/strings_fortified.h (explicit_bzero): Move back to .. * string/bits/string3.h: ... here.
2017-01-05Make fallback fesetexceptflag always succeed (bug 21028).Joseph Myers
The fallback implementation of fesetexceptflag currently fails if any exceptions are specified. It should always succeed, because the exception state is always that all exceptions (if any are defined in <fenv.h> but not supported in this configuration) are always clear, just as fallback fetestexcept always succeeds and fallback fesetenv always succeeds unless asked to set FE_NOMASK_ENV. This patch fixes it accordingly. Together with the patch to test-fexcept.c to allow feraiseexcept to fail in another place, this stops that test from failing for MIPS soft-float. Tested for mips64 soft-float. [BZ #21028] * math/fsetexcptflg.c (__fesetexceptflag): Always return 0. * math/test-fexcept.c (test_set): Allow failure of feraiseexcept if EXCEPTION_TESTS returns false.
2017-01-05Use fortify macros for b{zero,copy} along decl from strings.hAdhemerval Zanella
As described in BZ#20558, bzero and bcopy declaration can only benefit from fortified macros when decl came from string.h and when __USE_MISC is defined (default behaviour). This is due no standard includes those functions in string.h, so they are only declared if __USE_MISC is defined (as pointed out in comment 4). However fortification should be orthogona to other features test macros, i.e, any function should be fortified if that function is declared. To fix this behavior, the patch moved the bzero, bcopy, and __explicit_bzero_chk to a common header (string/bits/strings_fortified.h) and explicit fortified inclusion macros similar to string.h is added on strings.h. This allows to get fortified declarions by only including strings.h. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and along on a bootstrap installation to check if the fortified are correctly triggered with example from bug report. [BZ #20558] * string/bits/string3.h [__USE_MISC] (bcopy): Move to strings_fortified.h. [__USE_MISC] (bzero): Likewise. [__USE_MISC] (explicit_bzero): Likewise. * string/strings.h: Include strings_fortified.h. * string/Makefile (headers): Add strings_fortified.h. * string/bits/strings_fortified.h: New file. * include/bits/strings_fortified.h: Likewise.
2017-01-05Increase some test timeouts.Joseph Myers
This patch increases timeouts on some tests I've observed timing out. elf/tst-tls13 and iconvdata/tst-loading both dynamically load many objects and so are slow when testing over NFS. They had timeouts set from before the default changed from 2 to 20 seconds; this patch removes those old settings, so effectively increasing the timeout to 20 seconds (from 3 and 10 seconds respectively). malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail.c and malloc/tst-mallocfork2.c are slow on slow systems and so I set a fairly arbitrary 100 second timeout, which seems to suffice on the system where I saw them timing out. nss/tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c and nss/tst-nss-getpwent.c are slow on systems with a large passwd file; I set timeouts that empirically worked for me. (It seems tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c is hitting the 100000 getpwuid_r call limit in my testing, with each call taking a bit over 0.007 seconds, so 700 seconds for the test.) * elf/tst-tls13.c (TIMEOUT): Remove. * iconvdata/tst-loading.c (TIMEOUT): Likewise. * malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail.c (TIMEOUT): Increase to 100. * malloc/tst-mallocfork2.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 100. * nss/tst-cancel-getpwuid_r.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 900. * nss/tst-nss-getpwent.c (TIMEOUT): Define to 300.
2017-01-05Fix MIPS n64 readahead (bug 21026).Joseph Myers
As noted in bug 20126, MIPS n64 uses an incorrect implementation of readahead intended for 32-bit systems. This patch adds a syscalls.list entry to fix this. An updated version of the consolidation patch <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-09/msg00527.html> could remove this syscalls.list entry again. Tested with compilation (only) for mips64; the nature of the syscall doesn't allow for a glibc test to detect this issue. [BZ #21026] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n64/syscalls.list (readahead): New syscall entry.
2017-01-04Fix string/tester.c for GCC 7 -Wstringop-overflow=.Joseph Myers
GCC 7 has a -Wstringop-overflow= warning that includes warning for strncat with a size specified that is larger than the size of the buffer (which is dubious usage, but valid at runtime if in fact there isn't an overflow with the particular buffer contents present). string/tester.c tests such cases; this patch arranges for this warning to be ignored around relevant strncat calls. Tested compilation for aarch64 (GCC mainline) with build-many-glibcs.py; did execution testing for x86_64 (GCC 5). * string/tester.c (test_strncat): Disable -Wstringop-overflow= around tests of strncat with large sizes.
2017-01-04Fix malloc/ tests for GCC 7 -Walloc-size-larger-than=.Joseph Myers
GCC 7 has a -Walloc-size-larger-than= warning for allocations of half the address space or more. This causes errors building glibc tests that deliberately test failure of very large allocations. This patch arranges for this warning to be ignored around the problematic function calls. Tested compilation for aarch64 (GCC mainline) with build-many-glibcs.py; did execution testing for x86_64 (GCC 5). * malloc/tst-malloc.c: Include <libc-internal.h>. (do_test): Disable -Walloc-size-larger-than= around tests of malloc with negative sizes. * malloc/tst-mcheck.c: Include <libc-internal.h>. (do_test): Disable -Walloc-size-larger-than= around tests of malloc and realloc with negative sizes. * malloc/tst-realloc.c: Include <libc-internal.h>. (do_test): Disable -Walloc-size-larger-than= around tests of realloc with negative sizes.
2017-01-04Update libm-test XFAILs for ibm128 format.Joseph Myers
This patch cleans up and updates the libm-test XFAILs for the ibm128 format. More of them are changed to use a new ibm128-libgcc conditional, to reflect that they are not in fact needed if you've patched libgcc to fix the known issues (at substantial performance cost). Many additional XFAILs are added for tests that fail with unpatched libgcc (most but not all of them xfail-rounding). Note that further such fixes will be needed for test-ldouble actually to pass with default libgcc (in particular, XFAILs for pow tests and for various affected tests directly embedded in libm-test.inc). With patched libgcc, there may be a few XFAILs needed but the results are already substantially clean apart from a few ulps differences. Tested for powerpc. * math/libm-test.inc (TEST_COND_ibm128_libgcc): New macro. (init_max_error) [TEST_COND_ibm128]: Increase maximum error allowed to 16 ulps. * math/auto-libm-test-in: Change most XFAILs for ibm128 to use ibm128-libgcc. XFAIL more tests for ibm128-libgcc. * math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
2017-01-04Move wrappers to libm-compat-calls-autoGabriel F. T. Gomes
This commit moves one step towards the deprecation of wrappers that use _LIB_VERSION / matherr / __kernel_standard functionality, by adding the suffix '_compat' to their filenames and adjusting Makefiles and #includes accordingly. New template wrappers that do not use such functionality will be added by future patches and will be first used by the float128 wrappers.
2017-01-04Fix MicroBlaze bits/setjmp.h for C++.Joseph Myers
For MicroBlaze, setjmp/check-installed-headers-cxx fails with: ../setjmp/setjmp.h:34:8: error: '__jmp_buf_tag' has a field '__jmp_buf_tag::__jmpbuf' whose type depends on the type '<unnamed struct>' which has no linkage [-Werror=subobject-linkage] This patch fixes this in the same way as for some other architectures: the struct used for the internal __jmp_buf type is given the tag __jmp_buf_internal_tag. Tested (compilation tests) with build-many-glibcs.py. * sysdeps/microblaze/bits/setjmp.h (__jmp_buf): Give struct tag __jmp_buf_internal_tag.
2017-01-04Make MIPS soft-fp preserve NaN payloads for NAN2008.Joseph Myers
This corresponds to a patch applied to libgcc. In glibc it doesn't actually affect much (only fma, I think). The MIPS sfp-machine.h files have an _FP_CHOOSENAN implementation which emulates hardware semantics of not preserving signaling NaN payloads for an operation with two NaN arguments (although that doesn't suffice to avoid sNaN payload preservation in any case with just one NaN argument). However, those are only hardware semantics in the legacy NaN case; in the NAN2008 case, the architecture documentation says hardware preserves payloads in such cases. Furthermore, this implementation assumes legacy NaN semantics, so in the NAN2008 case the implementation actually has the effect of preserving sNaN payloads but not preserving qNaN payloads, when both should be preserved. This patch fixes the code just to copy from the first argument. Tested for mips64 soft-float. * sysdeps/mips/mips32/sfp-machine.h (_FP_CHOOSENAN): Always preserve NaN payload if [__mips_nan2008]. * sysdeps/mips/mips64/sfp-machine.h (_FP_CHOOSENAN): Likewise.
2017-01-04Fix MicroBlaze __backtrace get_frame_size namespace (bug 21022).Joseph Myers
Many linknamespace tests fail for MicroBlaze because __backtrace (as brought in by libc_fatal.c) uses an inline function get_frame_size which is not declared static. This patch fixes it to be declared static. Tested (compilation tests) with build-many-glibcs.py. [BZ #21022] * sysdeps/microblaze/backtrace.c (get_frame_size): Make static.
2017-01-03Update i386 libm-test-ulps.Joseph Myers
When testing changes to i386 libm functions (that are shadowed for i686 builds by i686 versions) recently, I saw that the plain i386 libm-test-ulps (as opposed to the i686 multiarch version) needed updating for tests that had been added since it was last updated. This patch updates it accordingly. * sysdeps/i386/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update.
2017-01-03Remove duplicate strcat implementationsAdhemerval Zanella
Since commit 6e46de42fe16 default strcat implementation is essentially the same for specialized ia64 and powerpc ones. This patch removes the redundant implementation and adjust powerpc64 ifunc code to use the default one. Checked on powerpc32-linux-gnu (default and power4) and ia64-linux build and on powerpc64le-linux-gnu. * sysdeps/ia64/strcat.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/powerpc/strcat.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strcat-power7.c: Use default C implementation. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strcat-power8.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/multiarch/strcat-ppc64.c: Likewise.
2017-01-03powerpc: Fix write-after-destroy in lock elision [BZ #20822]Tulio Magno Quites Machado Filho
The update of *adapt_count after the release of the lock causes a race condition when thread A unlocks, thread B continues and destroys the mutex, and thread A writes to *adapt_count.
2017-01-03Fix math/test-fenvinline for no-exceptions configurations.Joseph Myers
This patch fixes math/test-fenvinline.c to stop it failing in no-exceptions configurations (where some exception macros are defined but may not be supported at runtime). The relevant parts of the test are disabled in that case; some parts can still run (and the rounding mode tests are written in a way such that they work even if the rounding modes aren't supported). Tested for mips64 soft-float, and for x86_64 to make sure the tests still run when the exceptions are supported. * math/test-fenvinline.c (do_test): Disable tests of raised exceptions if !EXCEPTION_TESTS (FLOAT).
2017-01-03Fix x86 strncat optimized implementation for large sizesAdhemerval Zanella
Similar to BZ#19387, BZ#21014, and BZ#20971, both x86 sse2 strncat optimized assembly implementations do not handle the size overflow correctly. The x86_64 one is in fact an issue with strcpy-sse2-unaligned, but that is triggered also with strncat optimized implementation. This patch uses a similar strategy used on 3daef2c8ee4df2, where saturared math is used for overflow case. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu. It fixes BZ #19390. [BZ #19390] * string/test-strncat.c (test_main): Add tests with SIZE_MAX as maximum string size. * sysdeps/i386/i686/multiarch/strcat-sse2.S (STRCAT): Avoid overflow in pointer addition. * sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcpy-sse2-unaligned.S (STRCPY): Likewise.
2017-01-03Fix elf/tst-ldconfig-X for cross testing.Joseph Myers
elf/Makefile passes arguments to tst-ldconfig-X.sh that are different from what it expects, so resulting in the test failing in cross testing. This patch corrects the arguments passed (the script itself has correct logic for cross testing, it's just the Makefile that's wrong). Tested for powerpc (cross testing) and for x86_64 (native testing). * elf/Makefile ($(objpfx)tst-ldconfig-X.out): Correct arguments passed to tst-ldconfig-X.sh.
2017-01-03Fix up tabs/spaces mismatchesMartin Galvan
Mixing them up breaks the gdb pretty printer tests. ChangeLog: 2017-01-02 Martin Galvan <martingalvan@sourceware.org> * nptl/nptl-printers.py: Fix tabs/spaces mismatches.
2017-01-02Fix MIPS n32 lseek, lseek64 (bug 21019).Joseph Myers
The lseek consolidation broke lseek64 for MIPS n32, so resulting in io/test-lfs failing with an incorrect return from ftello64. This configuration uses the lseek syscall with a 64-bit return value; as the C syscall macros return long, they cannot be used in this case and so an assembly implementation is needed; accordingly, this patch adds lseek64 back to syscalls.list for this configuration. lseek was also broken, truncating the result without checking for overflow. lseek however was already broken before the consolidation; it aliased lseek64 so would return an out-of-range value, resulting in architecturally undefined behavior in the caller if it tried to use a non-sign-extended value with a 32-bit instruction. This patch adds a custom lseek implementation in C for n32, which calls __lseek64 to get the 64-bit value then checks for overflow. Because the prior lseek breakage did not show in test results, and the lseek64 breakage showed only indirectly through tests of ftello64, test coverage was clearly inadequate. This patch extends io/test-lfs.c to test the lseek64 return value (at a point where it has already seeked over 2GB into a file), and then to test the lseek return value (with the latter's expectations depending on whether off_t is smaller than off64_t). Tested for mips64 n32. Also tested test-lfs for x86_64 and x86, where as expected it passes. [BZ #21019] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/syscalls.list (lseek64): New syscall entry. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/mips64/n32/lseek.c: New file. * io/test-lfs.c (do_test): Test offset returned from lseek64 and lseek.
2017-01-02Add build-many-glibcs.py powerpc-linux-gnu-power4 build.Joseph Myers
The 32-bit powerpc configurations in build-many-glibcs.py were failing to cover the powerpc32 multiarch code at all, because that code is only built for power4 and above configurations. This patch adds a 32-bit power4 configuration so that at least some of that multiarch code gets build-tested. (This is preparation for reviewing the w_* file renaming, which affects such powerpc32 multiarch files.) * scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.add_all_configs): Add power4 glibc for powerpc-linux-gnu.
2017-01-02Fix test-sysvsem on some platformsAdhemerval Zanella
The command IPC_STAT of semctl expects an union semun in its fourth argument instead of struct semid_ds *. This can cause failures on powerpc32-linux-gnu. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, and powerpc32-linux-gnu (qemu system emulation).
2017-01-02Fix math/test-nearbyint-except for no-exceptions configurations.Joseph Myers
The test math/test-nearbyint-except conditions some of its tests on an EXCEPTION_TESTS call, not not all that need such a condition. This patch fixes it to use such a conditional for all its tests and to return 77 (UNSUPPORTED) if none of the floating-point types tested support exceptions. Tested for mips64 soft float (where the test previously failed and is now UNSUPPORTED); also tested for x86_64 to make sure the test still PASSes in exceptions-supported cases. * math/test-nearbyint-except.c: Include <stdbool.h>. (any_supported): New variable. (TEST_FUNC): Return early if !EXCEPTION_TESTS (FLOAT). Otherwise set any_supported. (do_test): Return 77 if no floating-point type supported exceptions.
2017-01-02Correct MIPS math-tests.h condition for sNaN payload preservation.Joseph Myers
Testing for MIPS soft float shows that the issue with NaN payload preservation applies to soft float as well as hard float: the sfp-machine.h emulates hardware non-preservation semantics, although only for the case of two NaN arguments. This patch duly changes the MIPS math-tests.h to expect such non-preservation for soft float as well as hard float. The issue in the NAN2008 case for which I posted <https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-01/msg00034.html>, of sNaN payloads being preserved but qNaN payloads not being preserved, is not currently an issue for glibc tests because we don't have any tests that check for qNaN payloads being preserved by arithmetic, so a simple __mips_nan2008 conditional suffices without needing compiler version checks in the __mips_nan2008 case. Tested for mips64 soft float. * sysdeps/mips/math-tests.h (SNAN_TESTS_PRESERVE_PAYLOAD): Do not condition on [__mips_hard_float].
2017-01-02Fix i686 memchr for large input sizesAdhemerval Zanella
Similar to BZ#19387 and BZ#20971, both i686 memchr optimized assembly implementations (memchr-sse2-bsf and memchr-sse2) do not handle the size overflow correctly. It is shown by the new tests added by commit 3daef2c8ee4df29, where both implementation fails with size as SIZE_MAX. This patch uses a similar strategy used on 3daef2c8ee4df2, where saturared math is used for overflow case. Checked on i686-linux-gnu. [BZ #21014] * sysdeps/i386/i686/multiarch/memchr-sse2-bsf.S (MEMCHR): Avoid overflow in pointer addition. * sysdeps/i386/i686/multiarch/memchr-sse2.S (MEMCHR): Likewise.
2017-01-02Fix pthread_cond_t on sparc for new condvar.Torvald Riegel

2017-01-02Make build-many-glibcs.py use binutils 2.28 branch by default.Joseph Myers
Now that a release branch exists for binutils 2.28, this patch makes build-many-glibcs.py use that by default in place of 2.27. * scripts/build-many-glibcs.py (Context.checkout): Default binutils version to 2.28 branch.

2016-12-31Enhance --enable-tunables to select tunables frontend at build timeSiddhesh Poyarekar
At the GNU Tools Cauldron 2016, the state of the current tunables patchset was considered OK with the addition of a way to select the frontend to be used for the tunables. That is, to avoid being locked in to one type of frontend initially, it should be possible to build tunables with a different frontend with something as simple as a configure switch. To that effect, this patch enhances the --enable-tunables option to accept more values than just 'yes' or 'no'. The current frontend (and default when enable-tunables is 'yes') is called 'valstring', to select the frontend where a single environment variable is set to a colon-separated value string. More such frontends can be added in future. * Makeconfig (have-tunables): Check for non-negative instead of positive. * configure.ac: Add 'valstring' as a valid value for --enable-tunables. * configure: Regenerate. * elf/Makefile (have-tunables): Check for non-negative instead of positive. (CPPFLAGS-dl-tunables.c): Define TUNABLES_FRONTEND for dl-tunables.c. * elf/dl-tunables.c (GLIBC_TUNABLES): Define only when TUNABLES_FRONTEND == TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring. (tunables_strdup): Likewise. (disable_tunables): Likewise. (parse_tunables): Likewise. (__tunables_init): Process GLIBC_TUNABLES envvar only when. TUNABLES_FRONTEND == TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring. * elf/dl-tunables.h (TUNABLES_FRONTEND_valstring): New macro.

2016-12-31Initialize tunable list with the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variableSiddhesh Poyarekar
Read tunables values from the users using the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. The value of this variable is a colon-separated list of name=value pairs. So a typical string would look like this: GLIBC_TUNABLES=glibc.malloc.mmap_threshold=2048:glibc.malloc.trim_threshold=1024 * config.make.in (have-loop-to-function): Define. * elf/Makefile (CFLAGS-dl-tunables.c): Add -fno-tree-loop-distribute-patterns. * elf/dl-tunables.c: Include libc-internals.h. (GLIBC_TUNABLES): New macro. (tunables_strdup): New function. (parse_tunables): New function. (min_strlen): New function. (__tunables_init): Use the new functions and macro. (disable_tunable): Disable tunable from GLIBC_TUNABLES. * malloc/tst-malloc-usable-tunables.c: New test case. * malloc/tst-malloc-usable-static-tunables.c: New test case. * malloc/Makefile (tests, tests-static): Add tests.
2016-12-31Add framework for tunablesSiddhesh Poyarekar
The tunables framework allows us to uniformly manage and expose global variables inside glibc as switches to users. tunables/README has instructions for glibc developers to add new tunables. Tunables support can be enabled by passing the --enable-tunables configure flag to the configure script. This patch only adds a framework and does not pose any limitations on how tunable values are read from the user. It also adds environment variables used in malloc behaviour tweaking to the tunables framework as a PoC of the compatibility interface. * manual/install.texi: Add --enable-tunables option. * INSTALL: Regenerate. * README.tunables: New file. * Makeconfig (CPPFLAGS): Define TOP_NAMESPACE. (before-compile): Generate dl-tunable-list.h early. * config.h.in: Add HAVE_TUNABLES. * config.make.in: Add have-tunables. * configure.ac: Add --enable-tunables option. * configure: Regenerate. * csu/init-first.c (__libc_init_first): Move __libc_init_secure earlier... * csu/init-first.c (LIBC_START_MAIN):... to here. Include dl-tunables.h, libc-internal.h.

Some tests can produce rather verbose tracing information, and the --verbose option provides a standardized way to enable such logging output.
2016-12-31support: Use support_record_failure consistentlyFlorian Weimer
This causes more test programs to link in the support_record_failure function, which triggers an early call to mmap from an ELF constructor, but this should not have side effects intefering with the functionality actually under test (unlike, say, a call to malloc).

2016-12-31New condvar implementation that provides stronger ordering guarantees.Torvald Riegel
This is a new implementation for condition variables, required after http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=609 to fix bug 13165. In essence, we need to be stricter in which waiters a signal or broadcast is required to wake up; this couldn't be solved using the old algorithm. ISO C++ made a similar clarification, so this also fixes a bug in current libstdc++, for example. We can't use the old algorithm anymore because futexes do not guarantee to wake in FIFO order. Thus, when we wake, we can't simply let any waiter grab a signal, but we need to ensure that one of the waiters happening before the signal is woken up. This is something the previous algorithm violated (see bug 13165). There's another issue specific to condvars: ABA issues on the underlying futexes. Unlike mutexes that have just three states, or semaphores that have no tokens or a limited number of them, the state of a condvar is the *order* of the waiters. A waiter on a semaphore can grab a token whenever one is available; a condvar waiter must only consume a signal if it is eligible to do so as determined by the relative order of the waiter and the signal. Therefore, this new algorithm maintains two groups of waiters: Those eligible to consume signals (G1), and those that have to wait until previous waiters have consumed signals (G2). Once G1 is empty, G2 becomes the new G1. 64b counters are used to avoid ABA issues. This condvar doesn't yet use a requeue optimization (ie, on a broadcast, waking just one thread and requeueing all others on the futex of the mutex supplied by the program). I don't think doing the requeue is necessarily the right approach (but I haven't done real measurements yet): * If a program expects to wake many threads at the same time and make that scalable, a condvar isn't great anyway because of how it requires waiters to operate mutually exclusive (due to the mutex usage). Thus, a thundering herd problem is a scalability problem with or without the optimization. Using something like a semaphore might be more appropriate in such a case. * The scalability problem is actually at the mutex side; the condvar could help (and it tries to with the requeue optimization), but it should be the mutex who decides how that is done, and whether it is done at all. * Forcing all but one waiter into the kernel-side wait queue of the mutex prevents/avoids the use of lock elision on the mutex. Thus, it prevents the only cure against the underlying scalability problem inherent to condvars. * If condvars use short critical sections (ie, hold the mutex just to check a binary flag or such), which they should do ideally, then forcing all those waiter to proceed serially with kernel-based hand-off (ie, futex ops in the mutex' contended state, via the futex wait queues) will be less efficient than just letting a scalable mutex implementation take care of it. Our current mutex impl doesn't employ spinning at all, but if critical sections are short, spinning can be much better. * Doing the requeue stuff requires all waiters to always drive the mutex into the contended state. This leads to each waiter having to call futex_wake after lock release, even if this wouldn't be necessary.
