Shawn O. Pearce a1d34bc0 2008-12-30T21:49:38 Support building on Mac OS X by using pthread_getspecific for TLS The Mach-O format does not permit gcc to implement the __thread TLS specification, so we must instead emulate it using a single int cell allocated from memory and stored inside of the thread specific data associated with the current pthread. What makes this tricky is git_errno must be a valid lvalue, so we really need to return a pointer to the caller and deference it as part of the git_errno macro. The GCC-specific __attribute__((constructor)) extension is used to ensure the pthread_key_t is allocated before any Git functions are executed in the library, as this is necessary to access our thread specific storage.

Andreas Ericsson ae234862 2008-11-18T22:20:15 Add an embryo of a TLS-aware error handling system This adds the per-thread global variable git_errno to the system, which callers can examine to get information about an error. Two helper functions are added to reduce LoC-count for the library code itself. Also, some exceptions are made for running sparse on GIT_TLS definitions, since it doesn't grok thread-local variables at all. Signed-off-by: Andreas Ericsson <ae@op5.se> Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
