Subject: [lttng-dev] [RELEASE] Userspace RCU 0.8.9
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 21:15:07 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <697307935.70382.1461705307398.JavaMail.zimbra@efficios.com> (raw)
Hi,
This is a bugfix release (0.8.9) for the Userspace RCU library.
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:
