Title:
  Patch for glibc Bug 23538 - "Hang in pthread_cond_broadcast" not
  available on Ubuntu LTS

Status in glibc package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in glibc source package in Bionic:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  There is a patch for versions of glibc prior to 2.29 which fixes a
  hang that can occur when using pthread condition variables. [1]

  I was unable to locate the patch [2] in the glibc-source tree.
  However, I can confirm that the defect also occurs on Ubuntu 18.04
  with glibc 2.27-3.

  Would it be possible to backport the patch to the glibc version
  shipped with the current LTS of Ubuntu?

  Thanks!

  Martin
