Why is condvar(9) API not part of the mutex(9) one? A condvar is nothing more than a mutex with a queue of waiting threads. I would simply imagine some wait calls applied to mutexes with the queue in the mutex struct. Nicholas -- Nicholas Souchu - nsouch@free.fr - nsouch@FreeBSD.org http://www.freebsd.org/~nsouch/kgi4BSD
