glibc-2.6.1-4.3mdv2008.0.src.rpm

Hi!

While working on i386 lowlevellock* updates (to match the x86_64/ppc
changes I posted as RFC), I found a couple of bugs in i?86 rwlock code and I
think it is better to post them separately outside of a huge patch, for
backporting etc. purposes:

1) if after futex returns -ETIMEDOUT or gettimeofday comparison jumps
   with -ETIMEDOUT stright to label 17 the internal lock isn't acquired
   immediately by lock cmpxchgl (== we jump to label 12), %ecx (which
   holds the saved futex return value) is first overwritten by
12:
#if MUTEX == 0
	movl    %ebp, %ecx
#else
	leal    MUTEX(%ebp), %ecx
#endif
   and afterwards inside of __lll_mutex_lock_wait (it will be
   FUTEX_WAIT).  This means the comparison with -ETIMEDOUT
   later on will be always false even if futex returned that
   error code and we'll loop again.  The effect of this will be that
   pthread_rwlock_timed*lock will be looping in this case until
   it manages to grab the internal lock immediately without having
   to wait.  I believe %esi isn't used for anything at this point
   (earlier it is used to hold some value from before unlock of
   the internal lock until the futex FUTEX_WAIT syscall), then
   to pass one of the arguments to that syscall, but then nothing
   until it is poped before ret.
2) only documentation issue in rwlock_unlock - the MUTEX != 0
   case uses wrong base register, fortunately MUTEX = 0 branch
   gets it right and we know MUTEX is 0.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/i486/pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock.S
	(pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock): Copy futex retval to %esi rather than
	%ecx.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/i486/pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock.S
	(pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/i486/pthread_rwlock_unlock.S
	(__pthread_rwlock_unlock): Fix MUTEX != 0 args to __lll_*.
