THREAD_RAN only signals if whether clone() or thread setup has failed, there is no synchronization involved and it is already local to creating thread. I changed the concurrency comment to the following, to indicate that (c) and (d) are essentially the same as you noted: (c) If either a joinable or detached thread setup failed and THREAD_RAN is true, then the creating thread releases ownership to the new thread, the created thread sees the failed setup through PD SETUP_FAILED member, releases the PD ownership, and exits. The creating thread will be responsible for cleanup the allocated resources. The THREAD_RAN is local to creating thread and indicate whether thread creation or setup has failed. (d) If the thread creation failed and THREAD_RAN is false (meaning ARCH_CLONE has failed), then the creating thread retains ownership of PD and must cleanup he allocated resource. No waiting for the new thread is required because it never started.

I think for such case you will need to set PD->stopped_start to true before thread creation (similar to what affinity and schedule set do), add the required initialization after the setup failure check, and handle potential errors. Something like (I removed the comments to simplify): static int _Noreturn start_thread (void *arg) { struct pthread *pd = arg; if (pd->stopped_start) { bool setup_failed = false; /* Get the lock the parent locked to force synchronization. */ lll_lock (pd->lock, LLL_PRIVATE); setup_failed = pd->setup_failed == 1; if (setup_failed) pd->joinid = NULL; /* Handle any thread setup requirement. If a failure occurs, set PD->setup_failed and 'setup_failed' to true to exit early. */ lll_unlock (pd->lock, LLL_PRIVATE); if (setup_failed) goto out; } [...] } Then on the 'create_thread' error handling check for errors similar to what my patch proposes: if (__glibc_unlikely (retval != 0)) { [...] } else { if (stopped_start) { lll_unlock (pd->lock, LLL_PRIVATE); /* Thread starts the its own setup code. */ lll_lock (pd->lock, LLL_PRIVATE); /* Handle any thread setup failure similar to early setup failure. */ if (pd->setup_failed) { pid_t tid; while ((tid = atomic_load_acquire (&pd->tid)) != 0) __futex_abstimed_wait_cancelable64 ((unsigned int *) &pd->tid, tid, 0, NULL, LLL_SHARED); } else lll_unlock (pd->lock) } It would require a slight more synchronization so the created thread signal that its own setup has failed, but I don't see a better strategy here. > > The actual code changes are fine, I think. Below it is the updated patch based on your suggestion, including the concurrency state descriptor regarding THREAD_RAN. Are this version ok to commit? --- [PATCH] nptl: Deallocate the thread stack on setup failure (BZ#19511) To setup either the thread scheduling parameters or affinity, pthread_create enforce synchronization on created thread to wait until its parent either release PD ownership or send a cancellation signal if a failure occurs. However, cancelling the thread does not deallocate the newly created stack since cancellation expects that a pthread_join to deallocate any allocated thread resouces (threads stack or TLS). This patch changes on how the thread resource is deallocate in case of failure to be synchronous, where the creating thread will signal the created thread to exit early so it could be joined. The creating thread will be reponsible for the resource cleanup before returning to the caller. To signal the creating thread that a failure has occured, an unused 'struct pthread' member, parent_cancelhandling_unsed, now indicates whether the setup has failed so creating thread can proper exit. This strategy also simplifies by not using thread cancellation and thus not running libgcc_so load in the signal handler (which is avoided in thread cancellation since 'pthread_cancel' is the one responsible to dlopen libgcc_s). Another advantage is since the early exit is move to first step at thread creation, the signal mask is not already set and thus it can not act on change ID setxid handler.
