PTHREAD_CLEANUP_POP(P) POSIX Programmer's Manual PTHREAD_CLEANUP_POP(P)
NAME
pthread_cleanup_pop, pthread_cleanup_push - establish cancellation han-
dlers
SYNOPSIS
#include
void pthread_cleanup_pop(int execute);
void pthread_cleanup_push(void (*routine)(void*), void *arg);
DESCRIPTION
The pthread_cleanup_pop() function shall remove the routine at the top
of the calling thread's cancellation cleanup stack and optionally
invoke it (if execute is non-zero).
The pthread_cleanup_push() function shall push the specified cancella-
tion cleanup handler routine onto the calling thread's cancellation
cleanup stack. The cancellation cleanup handler shall be popped from
the cancellation cleanup stack and invoked with the argument arg when:
* The thread exits (that is, calls pthread_exit()).
* The thread acts upon a cancellation request.
* The thread calls pthread_cleanup_pop() with a non-zero execute argu-
ment.
These functions may be implemented as macros. The application shall
ensure that they appear as statements, and in pairs within the same
lexical scope (that is, the pthread_cleanup_push() macro may be thought
to expand to a token list whose first token is '{' with
pthread_cleanup_pop() expanding to a token list whose last token is the
corresponding '}' ).
The effect of calling longjmp() or siglongjmp() is undefined if there
have been any calls to pthread_cleanup_push() or pthread_cleanup_pop()
made without the matching call since the jump buffer was filled. The
effect of calling longjmp() or siglongjmp() from inside a cancellation
cleanup handler is also undefined unless the jump buffer was also
filled in the cancellation cleanup handler.
RETURN VALUE
The pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop() functions shall
not return a value.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
These functions shall not return an error code of [EINTR].
The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
The following is an example using thread primitives to implement a can-
celable, writers-priority read-write lock:
typedef struct {
pthread_mutex_t lock;
pthread_cond_t rcond,
wcond;
int lock_count; /* < 0 .. Held by writer. */
/* > 0 .. Held by lock_count readers. */
/* = 0 .. Held by nobody. */
int waiting_writers; /* Count of waiting writers. */
} rwlock;
void
waiting_reader_cleanup(void *arg)
{
rwlock *l;
l = (rwlock *) arg;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&l->lock);
}
void
lock_for_read(rwlock *l)
{
pthread_mutex_lock(&l->lock);
pthread_cleanup_push(waiting_reader_cleanup, l);
while ((l->lock_count < 0) && (l->waiting_writers != 0))
pthread_cond_wait(&l->rcond, &l->lock);
l->lock_count++;
/*
* Note the pthread_cleanup_pop executes
* waiting_reader_cleanup.
*/
pthread_cleanup_pop(1);
}
void
release_read_lock(rwlock *l)
{
pthread_mutex_lock(&l->lock);
if (--l->lock_count == 0)
pthread_cond_signal(&l->wcond);
pthread_mutex_unlock(l);
}
void
waiting_writer_cleanup(void *arg)
{
rwlock *l;
l = (rwlock *) arg;
if ((--l->waiting_writers == 0) && (l->lock_count >= 0)) {
/*
* This only happens if we have been canceled.
*/
pthread_cond_broadcast(&l->wcond);
}
pthread_mutex_unlock(&l->lock);
}
void
lock_for_write(rwlock *l)
{
pthread_mutex_lock(&l->lock);
l->waiting_writers++;
pthread_cleanup_push(waiting_writer_cleanup, l);
while (l->lock_count != 0)
pthread_cond_wait(&l->wcond, &l->lock);
l->lock_count = -1;
/*
* Note the pthread_cleanup_pop executes
* waiting_writer_cleanup.
*/
pthread_cleanup_pop(1);
}
void
release_write_lock(rwlock *l)
{
pthread_mutex_lock(&l->lock);
l->lock_count = 0;
if (l->waiting_writers == 0)
pthread_cond_broadcast(&l->rcond)
else
pthread_cond_signal(&l->wcond);
pthread_mutex_unlock(&l->lock);
}
/*
* This function is called to initialize the read/write lock.
*/
void
initialize_rwlock(rwlock *l)
{
pthread_mutex_init(&l->lock, pthread_mutexattr_default);
pthread_cond_init(&l->wcond, pthread_condattr_default);
pthread_cond_init(&l->rcond, pthread_condattr_default);
l->lock_count = 0;
l->waiting_writers = 0;
}
reader_thread()
{
lock_for_read(&lock);
pthread_cleanup_push(release_read_lock, &lock);
/*
* Thread has read lock.
*/
pthread_cleanup_pop(1);
}
writer_thread()
{
lock_for_write(&lock);
pthread_cleanup_push(release_write_lock, &lock);
/*
* Thread has write lock.
*/
pthread_cleanup_pop(1);
}
APPLICATION USAGE
The two routines that push and pop cancellation cleanup handlers,
pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop(), can be thought of as
left and right parentheses. They always need to be matched.
RATIONALE
The restriction that the two routines that push and pop cancellation
cleanup handlers, pthread_cleanup_push() and pthread_cleanup_pop(),
have to appear in the same lexical scope allows for efficient macro or
compiler implementations and efficient storage management. A sample
implementation of these routines as macros might look like this:
#define pthread_cleanup_push(rtn,arg) { \
struct _pthread_handler_rec __cleanup_handler, **__head; \
__cleanup_handler.rtn = rtn; \
__cleanup_handler.arg = arg; \
(void) pthread_getspecific(_pthread_handler_key, &__head); \
__cleanup_handler.next = *__head; \
*__head = &__cleanup_handler;
#define pthread_cleanup_pop(ex) \
*__head = __cleanup_handler.next; \
if (ex) (*__cleanup_handler.rtn)(__cleanup_handler.arg); \
}
A more ambitious implementation of these routines might do even better
by allowing the compiler to note that the cancellation cleanup handler
is a constant and can be expanded inline.
This volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 currently leaves unspecified the
effect of calling longjmp() from a signal handler executing in a POSIX
System Interfaces function. If an implementation wants to allow this
and give the programmer reasonable behavior, the longjmp() function has
to call all cancellation cleanup handlers that have been pushed but not
popped since the time setjmp() was called.
Consider a multi-threaded function called by a thread that uses sig-
nals. If a signal were delivered to a signal handler during the opera-
tion of qsort() and that handler were to call longjmp() (which, in
turn, did not call the cancellation cleanup handlers) the helper
threads created by the qsort() function would not be canceled.
Instead, they would continue to execute and write into the argument
array even though the array might have been popped off the stack.
Note that the specified cleanup handling mechanism is especially tied
to the C language and, while the requirement for a uniform mechanism
for expressing cleanup is language-independent, the mechanism used in
other languages may be quite different. In addition, this mechanism is
really only necessary due to the lack of a real exception mechanism in
the C language, which would be the ideal solution.
There is no notion of a cancellation cleanup-safe function. If an
application has no cancellation points in its signal handlers, blocks
any signal whose handler may have cancellation points while calling
async-unsafe functions, or disables cancellation while calling async-
unsafe functions, all functions may be safely called from cancellation
cleanup routines.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
