Hi Florian,
Am I interpreting you correctly that glibc intends to add a
sigev_notify_thread_id define to access this field in struct sigevent?
I plan to send a patch to qemu to use sigev_notify_thread_id over
_sigev_un.tid if it is available, and I just want to confirm that
glibc intends to follow suit before I mention that in the commit
message.
Thanks
