With current kernel versions, the check does not reliably detect that
unavailable CPUs are requested, for these reasons:
(1) The kernel will silently ignore non-allowed CPUs, that is, CPUs
which are physically present but disallowed for the thread
based on system configuration.
(2) Similarly, CPU bits which lack an online CPU (possible CPUs)
are ignored.
(3) The existing probing code assumes that the CPU mask size is a
power of two and at least 1024. Neither has it to be a power
of two, nor is the minimum possible value 1024, so the value
determined is often too large. This means that the CPU set
size check in glibc accepts CPU bits beyond the actual hard
system limit.
(4) Future kernel versions may not even have a fixed CPU set size.
After the removal of the probing code, the kernel still returns
EINVAL if no CPU in the requested set remains which can run the
thread after the affinity change.
Applications which care about the exact affinity mask will have
to query it using sched_getaffinity after setting it. Due to the
effects described above, this commit does not change this.
The new tests supersede tst-getcpu, which is removed. This
addresses bug 19164 because the new tests allocate CPU sets
dynamically.

|
|
|
|
The @glibcadj{} implements functions to allow users to create and manage
|
|
data specific to a thread. Such data may be destroyed at thread exit,
|
|
if a destructor is provided. The following functions are defined:
|
|
|
|
@comment pthread.h
|

@comment POSIX
|

@deftypefun int pthread_key_create (pthread_key_t *@var{key}, void (*@var{destructor})(void*))

|
|
@c pthread_key_create ok
|
|
@c KEY_UNUSED ok
|
|
@c KEY_USABLE ok
|
|
Create a thread-specific data key for the calling thread, referenced by
|
|
@var{key}.
|
|
|
|
Objects declared with the C++11 @code{thread_local} keyword are destroyed
|
|
before thread-specific data, so they should not be used in thread-specific
|
|
data destructors or even as members of the thread-specific data, since the
|
|
latter is passed as an argument to the destructor function.

@c This uses atomic compare and exchange to increment the seq number
|

@c after testing it's not a KEY_UNUSED seq number.
|
|

|
|
Destroy the thread-specific data @var{key} in the calling thread. The

is it called during thread exit.
