On s390 (31bit) if glibc is build with -Os, pthread_join sometimes
blocks indefinitely. This is e.g. observable with
testcase intl/tst-gettext6.
pthread_join is calling lll_wait_tid(tid), which performs the futex-wait
syscall in a loop as long as tid != 0 (thread is alive).
On s390 (and build with -Os), tid is loaded from memory before
comparing against zero and then the tid is loaded a second time
in order to pass it to the futex-wait-syscall.
If the thread exits in between, then the futex-wait-syscall is
called with the value zero and it waits until a futex-wake occurs.
As the thread is already exited, there won't be a futex-wake.
In lll_wait_tid, the tid is stored to the local variable __tid,
which is then used as argument for the futex-wait-syscall.
But unfortunately the compiler is allowed to reload the value
from memory.
With this patch, the tid is loaded with atomic_load_acquire.
Then the compiler is not allowed to reload the value for __tid from memory.
ChangeLog:
[BZ #23137]
* sysdeps/nptl/lowlevellock.h (lll_wait_tid):
Use atomic_load_acquire to load __tid.
