McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>, Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@...tta.com>, Alan Stern <stern@...land.harvard.edu> Subject: [RELEASE] Userspace RCU 0.7.17 Hi, Even though the urcu stable-0.7 branch was supposed to be end of life, there is one last important fix for the urcu-signal flavor that was sitting in that branch that I would like to release before taking it away for good. All the good zombie movies start like this, right ? liburcu is a LGPLv2.1 userspace RCU (read-copy-update) library. This data synchronization library provides read-side access which scales linearly with the number of cores. It does so by allowing multiple copies of a given data structure to live at the same time, and by monitoring the data structure accesses to detect grace periods after which memory reclamation is possible. liburcu-cds provides efficient data structures based on RCU and lock-free algorithms. Those structures include hash tables, queues, stacks, and doubly-linked lists. Changelog: 2016-04-26 Userspace RCU 0.7.17 * Fix: urcu-signal: smp_mb_master() needs registry lock Project website: http://liburcu.org Git repository: git://git.liburcu.org/urcu.git -- Mathieu Desnoyers EfficiOS Inc. http://www.efficios.com
