Things that aren't done yet
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Implement PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED for semaphores, mutexes,
|
|
condition variables, read/write locks, barriers.
|
|
|
|
2. For version 3 onwards: the following types need to change, resulting in an ABI
|
|
change:
|
|
|
|
a) ptw32_handle_t (a.k.a. pthread_t)
|
|
Change the reuse counter from unsigned int to size_t. Type "int" on 32 bit
|
|
and 64 bit Windows is 32 bits wide.
|
|
|
|
To give an indication of relative effectiveness of the current "unsigned int",
|
|
consider an application that creates and detaches threads at the rate of 1
|
|
per millisecond. At this rate the reuse counter will max out after 49 days.
|
|
|
|
After changing to "size_t" an application compiled for x64 and creating and
|
|
detaching a thread every nanosecond would max out after 584 years.
|
|
|
|
b) pthread_once_t
|
|
Remove unused elements.
