New Revision: 232209
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/232209

Log:
    Follow changes made in revision 232144, pass absolute timeout to kernel,
    this eliminates a clock_gettime() syscall.
This or some other change has broken CLOCK_MONOTONIC usage with
condition variables.

You should be able to reproduce this by something like this:

        pthread_cond_t cv;
        pthread_condattr_t attr;
        pthread_mutex_t lock;
        struct timespec ts;
          int error;

        (void)pthread_mutex_init(&lock, NULL);

        (void)pthread_condattr_init(&attr);
        (void)pthread_condattr_setclock(&attr, CLOCK_MONOTONIC);

        (void)pthread_cond_init(&cv,&attr);
        (void)pthread_condattr_destroy(&attr);

        (void)clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC,&ts);
        ts.tv_sec += 10;
        (void)pthread_mutex_lock(&lock);
        (void)pthread_cond_timedwait(&cv,&lock,&ts);
        (void)pthread_mutex_unlock(&lock);

This should timeout after 10 seconds, but pthread_cond_timedwait(3)
returns immediately with ETIMEDOUT. CLOCK_REALTIME works properly.
Bascially pthread_condattr_setclock(&attr, CLOCK_MONOTONIC) is no-op.
If you change CLOCK_MONOTONIC to CLOCK_REALTIME in clock_gettime(2)
call, it will timeout after 10 seconds.
this has been broken for  a while for  me in fact fixing this was, I
thought,
one of the reasons for this work..  glad I'm not the omnly person
seeing it though.

for me it broke sysutils/fio  from ports
For me it breaks sbin/hastd and openbsm/auditdistd, but my feeling is
that it is was broken recently. This stuff use to work not so long ago.
Hi,

Revision 233134 should have fixed the problem.
