From 53af186b11ad6879d6c09ac8d7d301c084fc9f10 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Volker Lendecke Date: Fri, 1 Sep 2017 15:57:26 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] pthreadpool: Fix fork behaviour glibc's pthread_cond_wait(&c, &m) increments m.__data.__nusers, making pthread_mutex_destroy return EBUSY. Thus we can't allow any thread waiting for a job across a fork. Also, the state of the condvar itself is unclear across a fork. Right now to me it looks like an initialized but unused condvar can be used in the child. Busy worker threads don't cause any trouble here, they don't hold mutexes or condvars. Also, they can't reach the condvar because _prepare holds all mutexes.
