Log:
Implement TLS support, tls manual pages, and link the umtx and tls manual
pages together. TLS stands for 'thread local storage' and is used to
support efficient userland threading and threaded data access models.
Three TLS segments are supported in order to (eventually) support GCC3's
__thread qualifier. David Xu's thread library only uses one descriptor
for now. The system calls implement a mostly machine-independant API
which return architecture-specific results. Rather then pass the actual
descriptor structure, which unnecessarily pollutes the userland
implementation, we pass a more generic (base,size) and the system call
returns the %gs load value for IA32. For AMD64 and other architectures,
the returned value will be something for those architectures.
The current low level assembly support is not as efficient as it could be,
but it is good enough for now. The heavy weight switch code for processes
does the work. The light weight switch code for pure kernel threads has not
been changed (since the kernel doesn't use TLS descriptors we can just ignore
them).
Based on work by David Xu <davidxu at xxxxxxxxxxx> and Matthew Dillon <dillon at xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
