New scalable read-write lock implemenation in Fedora Rawhide.
by Carlos O'Donell 17 Nov '16

17 Nov '16

Torvald, The new v2 rwlock rewrite is now in Rawhide. It passed all the testing I could throw at it and the regression test results across the Fedora arches looked good. I'm moving this forward so we can make the case for glibc 2.25. commit b587bccfe792ad45d3f2308159741fafa39c0ced Author: Carlos O'Donell <carlos(a)systemhalted.org> Date: Thu Nov 17 12:46:05 2016 -0500 glibc-2.24.90-17 * Add new scalable implementation of POSIX read-write locks. -- Cheers, Carlos.

Support static linking with debugging information
by Florian Weimer 10 Nov '16

glibc-static contains a stripped version of libc.a. Why? There is an unstripped version in glibc-debuginfo, under /usr/lib/debug, but it is not a debuginfo-only file. It seems suitable as input to the static linker. Wouldn't it be more friendly towards developers of you automatically got glibc debugging symbols when linking statically? Thanks, Florian
