Hi Robert,
This isn't my thing but my flatmate had left a copy of solaris internals on
the table ;)

This is briefly mentioned around about page 384 and appears to be targetted
at userspace processes for exactly the cases you're suggesting (holding
global resources).

A good entry point into the sun online documentation for this stuff is
schedctl_init() -
