McKenney" , Lai Jiangshan , Stephen Hemminger , Alan Stern List-Id: lttng-dev@lists.lttng.org 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 multiples 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. Noteworthy: There is a minor imperfection in the prior version (0.8.3/0.7.11) corrected by this release. However, it is not required for correctness. We are doing this release because clients will base their packages (and did their testing) on those commits.
