Re: [PATCH] Remove wrapper functions in pthread.cc


I see this patch removes one unnecessary function call. I think we might be
able to remove one more function call from pthread_* functions to pthread::*
functions. I think it could be possible using GCC's feature of emitting aliases
of functions. This has unfortunately an inconvenience, one needs to have a
mangled C++ function name to be able to define the alias properly. I tryed this
simple test but haven't investigated it more thoroughly.

#include <cstdio>

void f ()
{
  printf ("f()\n");
}

void g () __attribute__ ((alias ("_Z1fv")));

class A {
public:
  static int static_func (int);
};

int A::static_func (int x)
{
  printf ("A::static_func()");
  return 1;
}

extern "C" int global_func (int) __attribute__ ((alias
("_ZN1A11static_funcEi")));

int main ()
{
  g ();
  global_func (1);
}
