Re: Windows: FIO randomly hangs using attached script

Closing the loop on this: after running a couple of million times the script that used to reproduce this, I have not seen a single error with the patch.

Thanks All for the great work on this!

    FWIW this has been accepted as a bug in the mingw-w64 project's
    winpthreads library. The standalone program on
    https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gist.github.com_sitsofe_abd99efec507b18234e7cc042d1baff1&d=DwIBaQ&c=s883GpUCOChKOHiocYtGcg&r=OMged-t_5I_fmfpUaT3vaA06lgLL_alYnDQJxHmXz64&m=C-SjzVSuoSBlexryZgGqFEfxhSdPbozUDu3U82Yjmqs&s=Xri6zcEiOde_B9rOwAyOAqm92oyNy-W5DHk01BPTQ_I&e=
    reliably triggers the deadlock for me when using a mingw build on both
    real Windows and under Wine but not when built for Linux with glibc.
    See https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__sourceforge.net_p_mingw-2Dw64_bugs_710_&d=DwIBaQ&c=s883GpUCOChKOHiocYtGcg&r=OMged-t_5I_fmfpUaT3vaA06lgLL_alYnDQJxHmXz64&m=C-SjzVSuoSBlexryZgGqFEfxhSdPbozUDu3U82Yjmqs&s=Ms3hnbtg0t-Ycfm-kLxkR0pvsG1BpG6Ch-oyrsk6h4Y&e= for the "Deadlock in
    winpthreads' pthread_cond_signal()" bug.
    
    Rob, David, Rebecca: do you know if the current git fio cures the
    deadlock you were seeing?
