Committed with the idiomatic approach.

I'll work on this additional check later.

Thanks, I completely forgot we have other partial specializations, I
just fixed the one that showed a deadlock in the user's example!


I prefer to restore somehow previous implementation to continue to
have _GLIBCXX_DEBUG post operators implemented in terms of normal post
operators.

Why?

Implementing post-increment as:

  auto tmp = *this;
  ++*this;
  return tmp;

is the idiomatic way to write it, and it works fine in this case. I
don't think it performs any more work than your version, does it?
Why not use the idiomatic form?

Is it just so that post-inc of a debug iterator uses post-inc of the
underlying iterator? Why does that matter?


A little yes, but that's a minor reason that is just making me happy.

Main reason is that this form could produce a __msg_init_copy_singular
before the __msg_bad_inc.

Ah yes, I see. That's a shame. I find the idiomatic form much simpler
to read, and it will generate better code (because it just reuses
existing functions, instead of adding new ones).

We could do this though, right?

 _GLIBCXX_DEBUG_VERIFY(this->_M_incrementable(),
   _M_message(__msg_bad_inc)
   ._M_iterator(*this, "this"));
 _Safe_iterator __tmp = *this;
 ++*this;
 return __tmp;

That does the VERIFY check twice though.


And moreover I plan to propose a patch later to skip any check in the
call to _Safe_iterator(__cur, _M_sequence) as we already know that __cur
is ok here like anywhere else in the lib.

There will still be one in the constructor normally elided unless
--no-elide-constructors but there is not much I can do about it.

Don't worry about it. Nobody should ever use -fno-elide-constructors
in any real cases (except maybe debugging some very strange corner
cases, and in that case the extra safe iterator checks are not going
to be their biggest problem).

The patch is OK for trunk then.

not detected.

I also plan to remove the debug check in the _Safe_iterator 
constructor from base iterator to avoid the redundant check we have 
now. But I need to make sure first that we are never calling it with 
an unchecked base iterator. And it might not be the right moment to do 
such a change.

Tested under Linux x86_64.

Ok to commit ?

I think we should backport this too, after some soak time on trunk.

With -fno-elide-constructors the debug iterator post-increment and
post-decrement operators are susceptible to deadlock. They take a mutex
lock and then return a temporary, which also attempts to take a lock to
attach itself to the sequence. If the return value and *this happen to
Note that the chosen mutex depends on the sequence so there is no need 
for conditional sentense here, it will necessarily be the same mutex.

collide and use the same mutex from the pool, then you get a deadlock
trying to lock a mutex that is already held by the current thread.
