[patch 08/12] pollfs: pollable futex

From: davi
Date: Sun Apr 01 2007 - 12:05:53 EST


Asynchronously wait for FUTEX_WAKE operation on a futex if it still contains
a given value. There can be only one futex wait per file descriptor. However,
it can be rearmed (possibly at a different address) anytime.

Building block for pollable semaphores and user-defined events.
