From 1a7f254b4b0590bfab1baa1400705265b1b23b97 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ulrich Drepper Date: Fri, 15 May 2009 10:12:35 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] No cancel signal in unsafe places. When disabling async cancellation we cannot return from the function call if the thread is canceled. This happens when the cancel bits have been set before async cancel is disabled but the signal hasn't been sent/received yet. Delay for as long as necessary since otherwise the signal might be received in an unsafe context. --- nptl/ChangeLog | 6 ++++++ nptl/cancellation.c | 14 +++++++++++++- nptl/libc-cancellation.c | 14 +++++++++++++- 3 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/nptl/ChangeLog b/nptl/ChangeLog index b83dfd0..74a2a73 100644 --- a/nptl/ChangeLog +++ b/nptl/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,9 @@ +2009-05-15 Ulrich Drepper + + * cancellation.c (__pthread_disable_asynccancel): Don't return if + thread is canceled. + * libc-cancellation.c (__libc_disable_asynccancel): Likewise. + 2009-04-27 Ulrich Drepper * cancellation.c (__pthread_disable_asynccancel): Use THREAD_ATOMIC_AND diff --git a/nptl/cancellation.c b/nptl/cancellation.c index 81134a6..4d528cf 100644 --- a/nptl/cancellation.c +++ b/nptl/cancellation.c @@ -70,15 +70,17 @@ __pthread_disable_asynccancel (int oldtype) return; struct pthread *self = THREAD_SELF; + int newval; #ifdef THREAD_ATOMIC_AND THREAD_ATOMIC_AND (self, cancelhandling, ~CANCELTYPE_BITMASK); + newval = THREAD_GETMEM (self, cancelhandling); #else int oldval = THREAD_GETMEM (self, cancelhandling); while (1) { - int newval = oldval & ~CANCELTYPE_BITMASK; + newval = oldval & ~CANCELTYPE_BITMASK; if (newval == oldval) break; @@ -92,4 +94,14 @@ __pthread_disable_asynccancel (int oldtype) oldval = curval; } #endif + + /* We cannot return when we are being canceled.
