From 29955a4797e8264f75886a989dbc81b2b5443f4c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrei Vagin Date: Thu, 19 Dec 2019 17:25:18 -0800 Subject: futex: wake one waiter if futex_wake is called with a non-positive value This change is needed to be compatible with the Linux kernel. There is no glibc wrapper for the futex system call, so it is easy to make a mistake and call syscall(__NR_futex, FUTEX_WAKE, addr) without the fourth argument. This works on Linux, because it wakes one waiter even if val is nonpositive.
