I am currently working on a pthreads interface to my kernel managed threads for FreeBSD 2.1, the first release won't be complete, I plan to support : pthread_create, pthread_join, pthread_kill, pthread_sigmask, pthread_exit pthread_self and pthread_detached. In addition to the above there will also be pthread_mutex_init and the lock, unlock trylock and destroy functions. The code is all written but still buggy so I am hanging onto it a bit longer, but when I send it out, you can see it isn't complete by any means. I need your help! Is anybody out there interested in writing the condvar stuff and some other bits? I simply haven't got the time do it all in a useful timeframe... DJS
