Fix: configure: support Autoconf 2.70
The newly-released autoconf 2.70 introduces a number of breaking
changes [1] and is being rolled-out by some distros.
Amongst those changes, the AC_PROG_CC_STDC macro is marked as obsolete
and was merged into AC_PROG_CC, which we already use. On 2.70, this
results in a warning which we handle as an error.
A version check is added to invoke the AC_PROG_CC_STDC macro only when
running a pre-2.70 version of autoconf, fixing the issue.
Also, the AX_PTHREAD macro makes use of the $as_echo built-in shell
variable which no longer exists in 2.70. A patch was submitted to the
GNU Autoconf archive in March, but there have been no signs of life
given since then [2].
As such, our local copy is updated to the latest version and the patch
(which looks fairly straight-forward / safe) is applied. This should
minimize changes once we go back to an "official" version of the macro.

The urcu-common library contains common code like the write-free queue

Most but not all toolchains will automatically link an executable with a
transitive depency of an explicitly linked library if said binary uses a

call_rcu: Fix race between rcu_barrier() and call_rcu_data_free()
The current code can lose RCU callbacks at shutdown time, which can
result in hangs. This lossage can happen as follows:
o A thread invokes call_rcu_data_free(), which executes up through
the wake_call_rcu_thread(). At this point, the call_rcu_data
structure has been drained of callbacks, but is still on the
call_rcu_data_list. Note that this thread does not hold the
call_rcu_mutex.
o Another thread invokes rcu_barrier(), which traverses the
call_rcu_data_list under the protection of call_rcu_mutex,
a list which still includes the above newly drained structure.
This thread therefore adds a callback to the newly drained
call_rcu_data structure. It then releases call_rcu_mutex and
enters a mystifying loop that does futex stuff.
o The first thread finishes executing call_rcu_data_free(),
which acquires call_rcu_mutex just long enough to remove the
newly drained call_rcu_data structure from call_rcu_data_list.
Which causes one of the rcu_barrier() invocation's callbacks to
be leaked.
o The second thread's rcu_barrier() invocation never returns
resulting in a hang.
This commit therefore changes call_rcu_data_free() to acquire
call_rcu_mutex before checking the call_rcu_data structure for callbacks.
In the case where there are no callbacks, call_rcu_mutex is held across
both the check and the removal from call_rcu_data_list, thus preventing
rcu_barrier() from adding a callback in the meantime. In the case where
there are callbacks, call_rcu_mutex must be momentarily dropped across
the call to get_default_call_rcu_data(), which can itself acquire
call_rcu_mutex. This momentary drop is not a problem because any
callbacks that rcu_barrier() might queue during that period of time will
be moved to the default call_rcu_data structure, and the lock will be
held across the full time including moving those callbacks and removing
the call_rcu_data structure that was passed into call_rcu_data_free()
from call_rcu_data_list.
With this fix, a several-hundred-CPU test successfully completes more
than 5,000 executions. Without this fix, it fails within a few tens
of executions. Although the failures happen more quickly on larger
systems, in theory this could happen on a single-CPU system, courtesy
of preemption.

Fix: tls-compat.h exposes compiler-dependent public configuration
Exposing the storage class chosen by ax_tls.m4 in a public header is
a bad idea, because if a recent gcc is used when configuring
liburcu, thus detecting C11, it will choose _Thread_local. Then, if an
external project uses urcu/tls-compat.h with an older gcc (e.g. 4.8),
it will fail to build, because that storage class is unknown, and
__thread should be used instead.
Therefore, use a preprocessor conditional on __cplusplus to detect C++11
(and use thread_local). Else, the STDC version is used to select
_Thread_local. Else check if _MSC_VER is defined to select
__declspec(thread), or else rely on __thread as fallback.
Remove ax_tls.m4 because it is now unused.

Fix: rculfhash worker needs to unblock to SIGRCU
In urcu-signal flavor, call_rcu_thread calls synchronize_rcu which
will send SIGRCU signal to all registed threads, and then loops to
wait need_mb to be cleared. However, the registed workqueue_thread
does not process the SIGRCU signal, and never clear the need_mb.
Based on above, call_rcu_thread and workqueue_thread will wait
forever for completion of the grace period: call_rcu_thread which holds
the rcu_registry_lock, waits for workqueue_thread to do cmm_smp_mb.
While workqueue thread never does cmm_smp_mb because of signal blocking,
and it will eventually wait to get rcu_registry_lock in do_resize_cb.
The phenomenon is as follows, which is easy to be triggered:

Fix: SONAME bump to 6.1.0
In commit
d6c78161aed9b2d550ce201b0a8cd5b3ee515ac8 we bumped the 'age'
part of the library version with the intention of keeping the same major
SONAME because we only introduced new symbols. However by bumping the
'age' and not the 'current' we substracted 1 to the major SONAME which
we did not intend. Seems like we missed this in testing.
Fix it by bumping the 'current' to end up with an SONAME of 6.1.0 which
is what we originally intended.
From the libtool manual for reference :
Programs using the previous version may use the new version as drop-in
replacement, but programs using the new version may use APIs not present
in the previous one. In other words, a program linking against the new
version may fail with “unresolved symbols” if linking against the old
version at runtime: set revision to 0, bump current and age.

Refactor liburcu to support many flavors per compile unit
This refactoring keeps the prior use of liburcu "map" APIs unchanged.
However, it introduces the following new APIs:
Each urcu flavor is now available as its own header:
include/urcu/urcu-memb.h
include/urcu/urcu-mb.h
include/urcu/urcu-signal.h
include/urcu/urcu-bp.h
include/urcu/urcu-qsbr.h
The installed urcu headers that were not under the urcu/ subdirectory
are moved there:
include/urcu-call-rcu.h -> include/urcu/call-rcu.h
include/urcu-defer.h -> include/urcu/defer.h
include/urcu-flavor.h -> include/urcu/flavor.h
include/urcu-pointer.h -> include/urcu/pointer.h
include/urcu-bp.h -> include/urcu/urcu-bp.h
include/urcu.h -> include/urcu/urcu.h
include/urcu-qsbr.h -> include/urcu/urcu-qsbr.h
The liburcu "map" API is now only available for use when URCU_API_MAP is
defined before including the liburcu flavor headers.
The old headers are now placeholders defining URCU_API_MAP and including
the new headers for backward compatibility:
include/urcu-bp.h
include/urcu-call-rcu.h
include/urcu-defer.h
include/urcu-flavor.h
include/urcu-pointer.h
include/urcu-qsbr.h
include/urcu.h
The header include/urcu/urcu.h now includes the right header between the
memb, signal, or mb flavors based on the compiler defines.
The symbol names of liburcu flavors are cleaned up, favoring the
following hierarchy:
urcu_<flavor name>_...
This is an ABI-breaking change, however the previous symbols name were
kept as aliases to maintain backward compatibility. They will be removed
when the next SONAME bump occurs.
The new liburcu-memb.so shared object is introduced, properly
namespacing this flavor. It is a duplicate of the previous liburcu.so,
which is kept around for backward compatibility.
The new URCU_API_MAP macro is introduced, controlling whether the
urcu API "mapping" should stay defined after inclusion of the flavor
headers. Users wishing to use the prior urcu API should either
explicitly define URCU_API_MAP before including the urcu/urcu*.h flavor
headers, or include the flavor header files from the include toplevel
directory, which are placeholders for backward compatibility. Use of
many urcu flavors within the same _LGPL_SOURCE compile unit should not
use the "map" APIs.
Internally, the "map" header files are split into one header per
flavor. The include guards are removed, so their effect can be
applied more than once. A new include/urcu/map/clear.h header is
introduced, which undefines the mappings at the end of the flavor
header if URCU_API_MAP is not set.
The new APIs namespaced for each urcu flavor is the recommended way to
use liburcu. We can expect the prior APIs to eventually become
deprecated over time.

Fix: only wait if work queue is empty in real-time mode
Unconditionally waiting for 10 ms after the completion of every batch
of jobs of the work queue in real-time mode appears to be a behaviour
inherited from the call-rcu thread.
While this is a fair trade-off in the context of call-rcu, it is less
evident that it is desirable in the context of a general-purpose
work queue. Waiting when work is available artificially degrades the
latency characteristics of the work queue.
If a workqueue user even need the explicit delay for batching (e.g. if
a call-rcu implementation would ever use the workqueue worker thread),
it can add it within the worker_before_wait_fct callback received as
argument from workqueue creation.

Fix: don't wait after completion of job batch if work queue is empty
On completion of a batch of jobs from the work queue, a wait of 10
ms (using poll()) is performed if there is no work present in the
work queue before waiting on its futex.
The work queue thread's structure is inspired by the call-rcu thread.
In the context of the call-rcu thread, my understanding is that the
intention is to ensure that the thread does not continuously wake-up
to process a single queued item. This is fine as an application should
not wait for a call-rcu job to be executed (or at least I don't see a
use-case for that).
In the context of the work queue, waiting for more work to be available
artificially slows down the execution of work on which an application
may wait.
I have observed a case where LTTng's session daemon's shutdown is
takes around 4 seconds as a large number of cds_lfht objects are
destroyed. Removing the wait reduces the duration of this phase of the
shut-down to almost ~10ms.
If a workqueue user even need the explicit delay for batching (e.g. if
a call-rcu implementation would ever use the workqueue worker thread),

Fix: don't use overlapping mmap mappings on Cygwin
The allocation scheme used by the mmap based RCU hash table is to make a
large unaccessible mapping to reserve memory without allocating it.
Then smaller chunks are allocated by overlapping read/write mappings which
do allocate memory. Deallocation is done by an overlapping unaccessible
mapping.
This scheme was tested on Linux, macOS and Solaris. However, on Cygwin the
mmap wrapper is based on the Windows NtMapViewOfSection API which doesn't
support overlapping mappings.
An alternative to the overlapping mappings is to use mprotect to change the
protection on chunks of the large mapping, read/write to allocate and none
to deallocate. This works perfecty on Cygwin and Solaris but on Linux a
call to madvise is also required to deallocate and it just doesn't work on
macOS.
For this reason, we keep to original scheme on all platforms except Cygwin.

This is needed to ensure usage of the TLS from a signal handler works

Given that the link-editor figures out the right model to use at

This also brings interesting speedups over the GD model. This does not
affects TLS accesses performed by executables, but does affect TLS

Add --enable-rcu-debug to configure
When used CONFIG_RCU_DEBUG is defined in urcu/config.h, thus the
debugging self-test are used at all time. This enables a permanent
built-in debugging behaviour.

ARM32: use dmb ish (inner shareable domain) for smp barriers
Based on https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-11/msg01272.html:
From: Ramana Radhakrishnan <ramana.radhakrishnan@arm.com>:
"Hans Boehm pointed out that we were using dmb sy instead of dmb ish.
Given that the ARM-ARM says that the inner shareability domain is really
the one that contains all PE's controlled by a single hypervisor or
operating system, it would be safe to replace all dmb sy's with dmb
ish's. "
Keep full system barriers for cmm_mb()/cmm_rmb()/cmm_wmb().

Cleanup: remove cmm_wmb() from rcu_xchg_pointer and rcu_cmpxchg_pointer
Both rcu_xchg_pointer() and rcu_cmpxchg_pointer() imply both release and
acquire barriers. Therefore, the extra cmm_wmb() is redundant and can be
removed.

Fix: uatomic arm32: add missing release barrier before uatomic_xchg
__sync_lock_test_and_set() only imply a release barrier, but
uatomic_xchg() guarantees both acquire and release barrier semantics.
Therefore, add the missing release barrier.

Allow forcing the use of sys membarrier
When using the default (liburcu.so) and bulletproof (liburcu-bp.so)
flavours of Userspace RCU, kernel support for sys-membarrier is detected
dynamically and stored in the rcu_has_sys_membarrier_memb and
urcu_bp_has_sys_membarrier global variables.
Checking the value of these variables adds a small but measurable overhead
to smp_mb_slave. On systems which support sys-membarrier, it would be
nice to have a way of avoiding that overhead.
Here is the proposed approach: if CONFIG_RCU_FORCE_SYS_MEMBARRIER is
defined then rcu_has_sys_membarrier_memb/urcu_bp_has_sys_membarrier are
replaced with the constant 1, eliminating the overhead in smp_mb_slave.
As a sanity check, support for sys-membarrier is still detected at
startup. A program using liburcu or liburcu-bp compiled with this option
aborts in the library constructor if the membarrier system call is not
supported by the operating system.

Fix: rcutorture: work-around signal issue on mac os x
Our MacOS X test machine with the following config:
15.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 15.6.0
root:xnu-3248.60.10~1/RELEASE_X86_64
appears to have issues with liburcu-signal signal being delivered on top
of pthread_cond_wait. It seems to make the thread continue, and
therefore corrupt the rcu_head. Work around this issue by unregistering
the RCU read-side thread immediately after call_rcu (call_rcu needs us
to be registered RCU readers).

Fix: Do not use wildcards in include/Makefile.am
Wildcards are not officially supported by autotools
in Makefiles since it needs to know the exact list
of files it has to work with.
Using an absolute path was a hack that worked as long
as the path to the header files from the top source dir
was the same as the install path of those files, which
is not the case anymore.
