| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vfork() wrapper defined in libpthread, that's used to run pthread_atfork()-registered handlers, is not only a very bad idea, it's broken and useless. Here's the rationale: [---------snip----------] Since the implementation as it stands is broken (linking a program that vfork()s and exec()s on the child and wait()s on the parent works unless you happen to link with libpthread), and I can't think of any workable solution, I suggest that we simply remove the vfork() overrider in the non-MMU case. Yes, we might lose some small amount of functionality here, but it's not like people running uClinux expect anything resembling actual fork() to work.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I've noticed a few people have posted over the last year about problems compiling programs that use vfork when pthreads are involved. Some detective work turned up that ptfork.c aliases vfork to fork and then tries to call the original fork as __libc_fork. This patch removes the aliasing when there is no MMU present, and uses the same call semantics to call __libc_vfork. I then added a symbol to the m68k vfork.S to allow vfork to be called as __libc_vfork. The same bug exists in the uClibc CVS, and with a possible tweak this patch should go through there as well. Obviously, all other platforms need __libc_vfork as a workable means to call vfork in order for this to work for them. Let me know if there are any problems with this patch.

* Merge in the pthread library. This is the linuxthreads library taken fromEric Andersen2002-02-201-0/+107
glibc 2.1.3 and ported to work with uClibc by Stefan Soucek and Erik Andersen (me). Stefan has hacked things up such that linuxthreads runs on MMU-less systems (tested only on arm-nommu). Erik cleaned things up and made it work properly as a shared library. -Erik
