The user-visible effect of this change is that std::future::wait_for now uses std::chrono::steady_clock to determine the timeout. This makes it immune to changes made to the system clock. It also means that anyone using their own clock types with std::future::wait_until will have the timeout converted to std::chrono::steady_clock rather than std::chrono::system_clock. Now that use of both std::chrono::steady_clock and std::chrono::system_clock are correctly supported for the wait timeout, I believe that std::chrono::steady_clock is a better choice for the reference clock that all other clocks are converted to since it is guaranteed to advance steadily. The previous behaviour of converting to std::chrono::system_clock risks timeouts changing dramatically when the system clock is changed. libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: * include/bits/atomic_futex.h (__atomic_futex_unsigned): Change __clock_t typedef to use steady_clock so that unknown clocks are synced to it rather than system_clock. Change existing __clock_t overloads of _M_load_and_text_until_impl and _M_load_when_equal_until to use system_clock explicitly. Remove comment about DR 887 since these changes address that problem as best as we currently able. |
