10a/ Quick access to mutex state.
One of the things that affects the performance of a threaded application is the time that is consumed testing the state of a mutex. Without trying to push this discussion into the "how it should be done phase", just consider sharing mutex state between user- and kernel- space. We will need a VM wizard at some point. 8-)
---- possible userland implementation goals-----
1/ A libpthread that can be linked with libc.
2/ Libc needs to change so that library functions and system calls used internal to the library do not use the externally visible cancellable equivalents.
A big re-write of libc is required.
