I think a sched_yield_to is one interface: int sched_yield_to(pid_t); For futex(), the extension is needed for the FUTEX_WAIT operation. We need a new operation FUTEX_WAIT_FOR or so which takes another (the fourth) parameter which is the PID of the target. For FUTEX_LOCK_PI we need no extension. The futex value is the PID of the current owner. This is required for the whole interface to work in the first place. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
