Add a helper method to WTF::MachSemaphore to wait with a timeout duration

• Component: Web Template Framework
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Wenson Hsieh]

Namely, the ability to broadcast (semaphore_signal_all), and the ability to wait for a limited amount of time before giving up (semaphore_timedwait)

We call this waitFor() in WTF::Semaphore and WTF::BinarySemaphore, perhaps we should keep the names the same?

I think you can use timeout.secondsAs<unsigned>() here and below instead of explicitly casting yourself.

Sounds good — changed to waitFor().

timeout.secondsAs<unsigned>() ought to work. However, timeout.nanosecondsAs<unsigned>() won't work for anything above a few seconds. I can use timeout.nanosecondsAs<int64_t>() and then subtract against the number of nanoseconds, but I'll still need a static cast to clock_res_t around the result.

Seems like the "convert Seconds to a mach_timespec_t" should be a separate function; could be useful elsewhere and a good separate concept. Simpler but related to MonotonicTime::fromMachAbsoluteTime.
