This patch adds a default pthread-offsets.h based on default
thread definitions from struct_mutex.h and struct_rwlock.h.
The idea is to simplify new ports inclusion.

This patch adds a default pthreadtypes-arch.h, the idea is to simpify
new ports inclusion and an override is required only if the architecture
adds some arch-specific extensions or requirement.
The default values on the new generic header are based on current
architecture define value and they are not optimal compared to current
code requirements as below.
- On 64 bits __SIZEOF_PTHREAD_BARRIER_T is defined as 32 while is
sizeof (struct pthread_barrier) is 20 bytes.
- On 32 bits __SIZEOF_PTHREAD_ATTR_T is defined as 36 while
sizeof (struct pthread_attr) is 32.
The default values are not changed so the generic header could be
used by some architectures.

This patch adds a new generic __pthread_rwlock_arch_t definition meant
to be used by new ports. Its layout mimics the current usage on some
64 bits ports and it allows some ports to use the generic definition.
The arch __pthread_rwlock_arch_t definition is moved from
pthreadtypes-arch.h to another arch-specific header (struct_rwlock.h).
Also the static intialization macro for pthread_rwlock_t is set to use
an arch defined on (__PTHREAD_RWLOCK_INITIALIZER) which simplifies its
implementation.
The default pthread_rwlock_t layout differs from current ports with:
1. Internal layout is the same for 32 bits and 64 bits.
2. Internal flag is an unsigned short so it should not required
additional padding to align for word boundary (if it is the case
for the ABI).

The current way of defining the common mutex definition for POSIX and
C11 on pthreadtypes-arch.h (added by commit 06be6368da) is
not really the best options for newer ports. It requires define some
misleading flags that should be always defined as 0
(__PTHREAD_COMPAT_PADDING_MID and __PTHREAD_COMPAT_PADDING_END), it
exposes options used solely for linuxthreads compat mode
(__PTHREAD_MUTEX_USE_UNION and __PTHREAD_MUTEX_NUSERS_AFTER_KIND), and
requires newer ports to explicit define them (adding more boilerplate
code).
This patch adds a new default __pthread_mutex_s definition meant to
be used by newer ports. Its layout mimics the current usage on both
32 and 64 bits ports and it allows most ports to use the generic
definition. Only ports that use some arch-specific definition (such
as hardware lock-elision or linuxthreads compat) requires specific
headers.
For 32 bit, the generic definitions mimic the other 32-bit ports
of using an union to define the fields uses on adaptive and robust
mutexes (thus not allowing both usage at same time) and by using a
single linked-list for robust mutexes. Both decisions seemed to
follow what recent ports have done and make the resulting
pthread_mutex_t/mtx_t object smaller.
Also the static intialization macro for pthread_mutex_t is set to use
a macro __PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER where the architecture can redefine
in its struct_mutex.h if it requires additional fields to be
initialized.

This patch new build tests to check for internal fields offsets for
internal pthread_rwlock_t definition. Althoug the '__data.__flags'
field layout should be preserved due static initializators, the patch
also adds tests for the futexes that may be used in a shared memory

This patch adds two new internal defines to set the internal
pthread_mutex_t layout required by the supported ABIS:
1. __PTHREAD_MUTEX_NUSERS_AFTER_KIND which control whether to define
__nusers fields before or after __kind. The preferred value for
is 0 for new ports and it sets __nusers before __kind.
2. __PTHREAD_MUTEX_USE_UNION which control whether internal __spins and
__list members will be place inside an union for linuxthreads
compatibility. The preferred value is 0 for ports and it sets
to not use an union to define both fields.
It fixes the wrong offsets value for __kind value on x86_64-linux-gnu-x32.
Checked with a make check run-built-tests=no on all afected ABIs.

This patch adds a new build test to check for internal fields
offsets for user visible internal field. Although currently
the only field which is statically initialized to a non zero value
is pthread_mutex_t.__data.__kind value, the tests also check the

internal member. A internal header (pthread-offset.h) is added

This patch removes all the replicated pthread definition accross the
architectures and consolidates it on shared headers. The new
organization is as follow:
* Architecture specific definition (such as pthread types sizes) are
place in the new pthreadtypes-arch.h header in arch specific path.
* All shared structure definition are moved to a common NPTL header
at sysdeps/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h (with now includes the arch
specific one for internal definitions).
* Also, for C11 future thread support, both mutex and condition
definition are placed in a common header at
sysdeps/nptl/bits/thread-shared-types.h.

This patch remove the PID cache and usage in current GLIBC code. Current
usage is mainly used a performance optimization to avoid the syscall,
however it adds some issues:
- The exposed clone syscall will try to set pid/tid to make the new
thread somewhat compatible with current GLIBC assumptions. This cause
a set of issue with new workloads and usecases (such as BZ#17214 and
[1]) as well for new internal usage of clone to optimize other algorithms
(such as clone plus CLONE_VM for posix_spawn, BZ#19957).
- The caching complexity also added some bugs in the past [2] [3] and
requires more effort of each port to handle such requirements (for
both clone and vfork implementation).
- Caching performance gain in mainly on getpid and some specific
code paths. The getpid performance leverage is questionable [4],
either by the idea of getpid being a hotspot as for the getpid
implementation itself (if it is indeed a justifiable hotspot a
vDSO symbol could let to a much more simpler solution).
Other usage is mainly for non usual code paths, such as pthread
cancellation signal and handling.
For thread creation (on stack allocation) the code simplification in fact
adds some performance gain due the no need of transverse the stack cache
and invalidate each element pid.
Other thread usages will require a direct getpid syscall, such as
cancellation/setxid signal, thread cancellation, thread fail path (at
create_thread), and thread signal (pthread_kill and pthread_sigqueue).
However these are hardly usual hotspots and I think adding a syscall is
justifiable.
It also simplifies both the clone and vfork arch-specific implementation.
And by review each fork implementation there are some discrepancies that
this patch also solves:
- microblaze clone/vfork does not set/reset the pid/tid field
- hppa uses the default vfork implementation that fallback to fork.
Since vfork is deprecated I do not think we should bother with it.
The patch also removes the TID caching in clone. My understanding for
such semantic is try provide some pthread usage after a user program
issue clone directly (as done by thread creation with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID
and pthread tid member). However, as stated before in multiple discussions
threads, GLIBC provides clone syscalls without further supporting all this
semantics.
I ran a full make check on x86_64, x32, i686, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le.
For sparc32, sparc64, and mips I ran the basic fork and vfork tests from
posix/ folder (on a qemu system). So it would require further testing
on alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, nios2, s390, sh, and tile (I excluded microblaze
because it is already implementing the patch semantic regarding clone/vfork).

The previous barrier implementation did not fulfill the POSIX requirements
for when a barrier can be destroyed. Specifically, it was possible that
threads that haven't noticed yet that their round is complete still access
the barrier's memory, and that those accesses can happen after the barrier
has been legally destroyed.
The new algorithm does not have this issue, and it avoids using a lock
internally.
This adds new functions for futex operations, starting with wait,
abstimed_wait, reltimed_wait, wake. They add documentation and error
checking according to the current draft of the Linux kernel futex manpage.
Waiting with absolute or relative timeouts is split into separate functions.
This allows for removing a few cases of code duplication in pthreads code,
which uses absolute timeouts; also, it allows us to put platform-specific
code to go from an absolute to a relative timeout into the platform-specific
futex abstractions..
Futex operations that can be canceled are also split out into separate
functions suffixed by "_cancelable".
There are separate versions for both Linux and NaCl; while they currently
differ only slightly, my expectation is that the separate versions of
lowlevellock-futex.h will eventually be merged into futex-internal.h
when we get to move the lll_ functions over to the new futex API.
mq_notify (present in POSIX by 1996) brings in references to
pthread_barrier_init and pthread_barrier_wait (new in the 2001 edition
of POSIX). This patch fixes this by making those functions into weak
aliases of __pthread_barrier_*, exporting the __pthread_barrier_*
names at version GLIBC_PRIVATE and using them in mq_notify.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and comparison of installed
stripped shared libraries). Changes in addresses from dynamic symbol
table / PLT changes render most comparisons not particularly useful,
but when the addresses of subsequent code don't change there's no sign
of unexpected changes there. This patch does not remove any
linknamespace XFAILs because of other namespace issues remaining with
mqueue.h functions.

This patch relies on the C version of the rwlocks posted earlier.
With C rwlocks it is very straight forward to do adaptive elision
using TSX. It is based on the infrastructure added earlier
for mutexes, but uses its own elision macros. The macros
are fairly general purpose and could be used for other
elision purposes too.
This version is much cleaner than the earlier assembler based
version, and in particular implements adaptation which makes
it safer.
I changed the behavior slightly to not require any changes
in the test suite and fully conform to all expected
behaviors (generally at the cost of not eliding in
various situations). In particular this means the timedlock
variants are not elided. Nested trylock aborts.
