Revert "std: adjust requested stack size for thread-local storage."

2014-01-05T23:29:24+00:00

This reverts commit f1b5f59287106fc511d29c425255bd343608065c. Using a private function of a library is a bad idea: several people (on Linux) were meeting with linking errors because of it (different/older versions of glibc).

std: adjust requested stack size for thread-local storage.

2014-01-04T00:07:02+00:00

If there is a lot of data in thread-local storage some implementations of pthreads (e.g. glibc) fail if you don't request a stack large enough -- by adjusting for the minimum size we guarantee that our stacks are always large enough. Issue #6233.

Test fixes and rebase conflicts

std: Update std::rt::thread to specify stack sizes

It's now possible to spawn an OS thread with a stack that has a specific size.

green: Rip the bandaid off, introduce libgreen

2013-12-25T03:59:52+00:00

This extracts everything related to green scheduling from libstd and introduces a new libgreen crate. This mostly involves deleting most of std::rt and moving it to libgreen. Along with the movement of code, this commit rearchitects many functions in the scheduler in order to adapt to the fact that Local::take now *only* works on a Task, not a scheduler. This mostly just involved threading the current green task through in a few locations, but there were one or two spots where things got hairy. There are a few repercussions of this commit: * tube/rc have been removed (the runtime implementation of rc) * There is no longer a "single threaded" spawning mode for tasks. This is now encompassed by 1:1 scheduling + communication. Convenience methods have been introduced that are specific to libgreen to assist in the spawning of pools of schedulers.

std: Introduce an unstable::stack module

2013-12-24T22:41:59+00:00

This module will be used to manage the OS-specific TLS registers used to specify the bounds of the current rust stack (useful in 1:1 and M:N)

Fallout of rewriting std::comm

2013-12-17T01:47:11+00:00

Improve the rt::thread module

2013-11-27T17:53:48+00:00

* Added doc comments explaining what all public functionality does. * Added the ability to spawn a detached thread * Added the ability for the procs to return a value in 'join'
