Packit Service 82fcde
- we should probably extend pthread_mutexattr_t with a field to create a
Packit Service 82fcde
  single linked list of all instances.  This requires changing the
Packit Service 82fcde
  pthread_mutexattr_* functions.
Packit Service 82fcde
Packit Service 82fcde
Packit Service 82fcde
- a new attribute for mutexes: number of times we spin before calling
Packit Service 82fcde
sys_futex
Packit Service 82fcde
Packit Service 82fcde
- for adaptive mutexes: when releasing, determine whether somebody spins.
Packit Service 82fcde
If yes, for a short time release lock.  If someone else locks no wakeup
Packit Service 82fcde
syscall needed.

- test with threaded process terminating and semadj (?) being applied
Packit Service 82fcde
  only after all threads are gone

- semaphore changes:
Packit Service 82fcde
Packit Service 82fcde
  - sem_post should only wake one thread and only when the state of
Packit Service 82fcde
    the semaphore changed from 0 to 1
Packit Service 82fcde
Packit Service 82fcde
    this also requires that sem_wait and sem_timedwait don't drop the
Packit Service 82fcde
    post if they get canceled.
Packit Service 82fcde
Packit Service 82fcde
  - possibly add counter field.  This requires reviving the
Packit Service 82fcde
    differences between old and new semaphose funtions.  The old ones
Packit Service 82fcde
    stay as they are now.  The new once can use an additional field
Packit Service 82fcde
    wich is the counter for the number of waiters
