Avoid a system call when no sleep is required. Sleep in a loop (actually
two loops) to handle interruption by signals.

	PR libstdc++/80538
	* src/c++11/thread.cc (this_thread::__sleep_for)
	[_GLIBCXX_HAVE_SLEEP]: Only call sleep for non-zero values.
	Loop while sleep call is interrupted and until steady_clock
	shows requested duration has elapsed.
	(!_GLIBCXX_HAVE_USLEEP]: Use the _GLIBCXX_HAVE_SLEEP code path, but
	avoiding the usleep call.
	* testsuite/30_threads/this_thread/60421.cc: Test repeated
	signal interruptions.

Tested x86_64-linux (by manually fudging the configure macros to test
the !_GLIBCXX_USE_NANOSLEEP paths).

Committed to trunk.

I wonder if this would be worthwhile:

--- a/libstdc++-v3/src/c++11/thread.cc
+++ b/libstdc++-v3/src/c++11/thread.cc
@@ -208,6 +208,8 @@ namespace this_thread
 # else
            if (__ns.count() > 1000000 || secs == 0)

+           else
+             __gthread_yield();
 # endif
          }

That way for durations smaller than 1ms we give other threads a chance
to run, instead of sleeping for the __s seconds, looping back to this
test, and then sleeping an entire extra second.

But I'm assuming that systems with no usleep are probably rare, and
can live with rounding up to sleep for a full second.

Well conforming implementations usually won't have usleep which was obscolencent in SUSv3 and removed from SUSv4.
As you certainly know we have clock_nanosleep / nanosleep nowadays.

thanks,

Yes, of course. We don't even look for usleep unless nanosleep isn't
available, so I mean systems with no nanosleep *and* no usleep.

Right. Wasn't obvious to me from just the patch. Sorry for the noise..
