 726Branch: thorpej-futex
 727Description: Overhaul of futex operations to fix thread priority issues
 728Status: Active
 729Start Date: Sun Nov 1 2020

 731Base Tag: thorpej-futex-base
 732Maintainer: Jason Thorpe <thorpej@netbsd.org>
 733Scope: src/sys src/tests/lib/libc/sys
 734Note: Normal futex operataions pass the test suite, but there are
 735 issues with Linux compatibility currently, that need to be
 736 addressed before merging. Also includes new NetBSD extensions
 737 to the futex interface to support reader/writer locks. Those
 738 changes can be discounted in favor of fixing the standard
 739 futex operations with respect to Linux compatibility.
