Do you have some userspace applications or libraries with real-time needs in mind that could use it ? We could help moving them to liburcu. The wait-free read-side is, as you certainly know, a characteristic of RCU that can be very useful to RT applications. [CCing linux-rt-users, as it seems appropriate to ask them too.] Thanks, Mathieu -- Mathieu Desnoyers Operating System Efficiency R&D Consultant EfficiOS Inc. http://www.efficios.com
