// PURPOSE: This module holds various bits of client state which don't
// live comfortably anywhere else.  Note that the ThreadStates for the
// client don't live here; they instead live in m_threadstate.h.  Most
// of these values are set once at startup and not changed later.

   idea is: make up the /proc/<pid>/cmdline file the client would
   expect to see if it was running natively.  Copy into a file in
   /tmp.  When the client then does an open of /proc/<pid>/cmdline or
   /proc/self/cmdline, instead give it a file handle to the file in
   /tmp.  The problem of deleting said file when Valgrind exits is
   neatly sidestepped by unlinking it as soon as it has been created,
   but holding on to the file handle.  That causes the kernel to keep
   the file contents alive exactly until the process exits. */

/* glibc nptl pthread systems only, when no-nptl-pthread-stackcache

   Used for a (kludgy) way to disable the cache of stacks as implemented in
   nptl glibc. 
   Based on internal knowledge of the pthread glibc nptl/allocatestack.c code:
   a huge value in stack_cache_actsize (bigger than the constant
   stack_cache_maxsize) makes glibc believes the cache is full
   and so stacks are always released when a pthread terminates.
   Several ugliness in this kludge:
    * hardcodes private glibc var name "stack_cache_maxsize"
    * based on knowledge of the code of the functions
      queue_stack and __free_stacks
    * static symbol for "stack_cache_maxsize" must be in
      the debug info.
   It would be much cleaner to have a documented and supported
   way to disable the pthread stack cache. */
