Back when we did this: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1109.1/01941.html http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1109.1/01943.html Things came apart -- notably sysvsems. And yes its true that anything not dealing with spuriuos wakups is borken, but there's still quite a lot of borken out there, although I think we fixed all the really common ones. But if we decide we want to go do this, I'd propose we reintroduce this delayed wake list thing again. -- 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/
