| |
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 multiples 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.
Changelog for v0.5.3: * Add support for older ARM single-CPU architecturess (pre-ARMv7) (thanks to Jason Wessel from WindRiver). * Fix ARMv7 cmm_rmb/cmm_wmb primitives (use a dmb barrier). * Remove leftover list_t type from urcu/list.h (namespace cleanup). * urcu_defer: handle malloc error value. * Update README file to describe urcu interaction with fork() when not followed by an exec() system call.
