nptl: Reinstate pthread_timedjoin_np as a cancellation point (BZ#24215)
Patch ce7eb0e90315 ("nptl: Cleanup cancellation macros") changed the join sequence for internal common __pthread_timedjoin_ex to use the new macro lll_wait_tid. The idea was this macro would issue the cancellable futex operation depending whether the timeout is used or not. However if a timeout is used, __lll_timedwait_tid is called and it is not a cancellable entrypoint. This patch fixes it by simplifying the code in various ways: - Instead of adding the cancellation handling on __lll_timedwait_tid, it moves the generic implementation to pthread_join_common.c (called now timedwait_tid with some fixes to use the correct type for pid). - The llvm_wait_tid macro is removed, along with its replication on x86_64, i686, and sparc arch-specific lowlevellock.h. - sparc32 __lll_timedwait_tid is also removed, since the code is similar to generic one. - x86_64 and i386 provides arch-specific __lll_timedwait_tid which is also removed since they are similar in functionality to generic C code and there is no indication it is better than compiler generated code. New tests, tst-join8 and tst-join9, are provided to check if pthread_timedjoin_np acts as a cancellation point. Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, sparcv9-linux-gnu, and aarch64-linux-gnu. [BZ #24215] * nptl/Makefile (lpthread-routines): Remove lll_timedwait_tid. (tests): Add tst-join8 tst-join9. * nptl/lll_timedwait_tid.c: Remove file. * sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/lll_timedwait_tid.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/lll_timedwait_tid.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/sysv/linux/x86_64/lll_timedwait_tid.c: Likewise. * nptl/pthread_join_common.c (timedwait_tid): New function. (__pthread_timedjoin_ex): Act as cancellation entrypoint is block is set. * nptl/tst-join5.c (thread_join): New function. (tf1, tf2, do_test): Use libsupport and add pthread_timedjoin_np check. * nptl/tst-join8.c: New file. * nptl/tst-join9.c: Likewise. * sysdeps/nptl/lowlevellock-futex.h (lll_futex_wait_cancel, lll_futex_timed_wait_cancel): Add generic macros. * sysdeps/nptl/lowlevellock.h (__lll_timedwait_tid, lll_wait_tid): Remove definitions. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/lowlevellock.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sparc/lowlevellock.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/lowlevellock.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/sparc/sparc32/lowlevellock.c (__lll_timedwait_tid): Remove function. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/lowlevellock.S (__lll_timedwait_tid): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/lowlevellock.S: Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/lowlevellock-futex.h (lll_futex_timed_wait_cancel): New macro.
