for safety are now load errors e.g. /foo/${ORIGIN}.so in DT_NEEDED
results in a load failure now.
* Support for ISO C threads (ISO/IEC 9899:2011) has been added. The
implementation includes all the standard functions provided by
<threads.h>:
- thrd_current, thrd_equal, thrd_sleep, thrd_yield, thrd_create,
thrd_detach, thrd_exit, and thrd_join for thread management.
- mtx_init, mtx_lock, mtx_timedlock, mtx_trylock, mtx_unlock, and
mtx_destroy for mutual exclusion.
- call_once for function call synchronization.
- cnd_broadcast, cnd_destroy, cnd_init, cnd_signal, cnd_timedwait, and
cnd_wait for conditional variables.
- tss_create, tss_delete, tss_get, and tss_set for thread-local storage.
Application developers must link against libpthread to use ISO C threads.
Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:
* The nonstandard header files <libio.h> and <_G_config.h> are no longer
