[PATCH 1/2] perf bench: futex: Support operations for shared futexes

From: Davidlohr Bueso
Date: Mon Sep 29 2014 - 12:42:32 EST


Unlike futex-hash, requeuing and wakeup benchmarks do not support
shared futexes, limiting the usefulness of the programs. Correct
this, and allow using the local -S parameter. The default remains
using private futexes.
