Any reason this wasn't > added to the mutex manpage? I made it a separate page because it seems like one uses mtx_pools in a different kind of situation than one would use a strait mutex. Plus, the mutex.9 page is rather long already, and it seemed like adding in docs on 'a way to get a mutex' would detract from the point of the page. The next commit added a reference from mutex.9 (and the other related man pages, like condvar and sx) to mtx_pool.9 though. -garrett -- garrett rooney Unix was not designed to stop you from rooneg@electricjellyfish.net doing stupid things, because that would http://electricjellyfish.net/ stop you from doing clever things.
