Not only that, but you need a way for it to be 'aborted' out and have it cleanup as it goes. I suspect that this will require re-writing a large number of syscalls with threading in mind, and leaving the 'old' calls in place will allow more flexibility as things change.
I could envision the 'old' calls going away at some point as the new calls get completely fleshed out and tested, to be replaced with simple wrappers for the threaded calls.
Maybe in the libraries, but we will need to keep the old syscalls in the kernel effectively forever. (for old binaries) It's not much of a cost.. (look at linux emulation).
If I can ask one question, how will we cover things like errno, which we'll want to be in thread-specific storage, but not on the stack (I think)?
