Hi All,
Sorry for a somewhat unusual question.
I have a devised a compound synchronization object approximately of
the rwlock's level which helps with some aspects of data queue
handling and provider-consumer interactions between threads. One of
particular uses - it allows to wait for a worker to complete a
specific work item with priority inheritance from the waiting thread
(if the OS provides the priority inheritance feature at all, of
course). If I would like to contribute this object to the libpthread,
what would be the best way/place to do it?
