I will resend.
Just created this patch before had added hook in git.
Thanks.

    Current implementation has at least two races that lead to several
    issues:

    - gbls->remain can overflow. One thread can decrement remain counter
    to 0.
    While another can decrement it once again and it will be > 0. After
    what some thread will loop very long time ...

    - Several threads can terminate the same timer and as result the
    same event.
    After out from the main loop a thread terminates a last timer it used.
    But a last timer saved in ttp for a thread can be received in another
    thread. So after leaving the main loop two threads can hold the same
    timer.

    - Some timer cannot be freed as several threads try to delete the same
    timer, as result one of the timer/tmo stay not freed after termination.

    - The test can send more events that requested. The receiving of
    requested
    number of tmos doesn't mean the test sent the same number. It rather
    sent more.

    This patch is intended to fix above drawbacks.

    The termination path must follow the next things:

    - An event can be in the following places: in a timer (waiting to be
    scheduled), in a queue for a thread to be scheduled, received in the
    main loop.

    - An event "holds" a timer, so when we receive an event we can
    delete it's
    timer.

    - a thread cannot delete timer w/o an event as it doesn't know who
    is owner of
    the event (and obvious the timer).

    - a thread shouldn't send events more than requested.

    -  all threads have to be "held" in the loop till a last received event.
    The scheduler can assign event for any of the threads, so one thread can
    receive two last events for example.

    According to above, added several improvements:
    - don't send more timeouts that supposed to receive
    - free timer and tmo for a last received tmos = num of threads.
    - leave the main loop only if a last tmo/timer is free.
