Subject: Re: semaphore redesign
A few more things from IRC discussion.
Fields in the semaphore struct should be made volatile.
The new implementation eliminates the last call site with non-dummy cleanup
argument to __timedwait.
New sem_timedwait shows worse performance in Rich's sem-bench on my desktop, I
think primarily because it does not have sem_trywait preceding the spin loop
anymore, plus the loop itself is also a bit leaner. My proposal is to use a
different spin count somewhere in 150-200 range instead of 100.
