Subject: [RELEASE] Userspace RCU 0.9.3
Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2016 21:15:58 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1526234159.22101.1480540558679.JavaMail.zimbra@efficios.com> (raw)

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.

This is mainly a bugfix release, with noteworthy changes:
- Adds GNU Hurd support,
- Bumps the library current version and age because we added missing
  destroy functions for queues and stacks,
- Quite a few MacOS X support fixes.
