Hi, bringing this topic from 2018 up again (+Cc Mathieu):
https://inbox.sourceware.org/libc-alpha/c061de55-cc2a-88fe-564b-2ea9c4a7e632@redhat.com/T/

I'm wondering if URCU-in-glibc is still on the table.  I'm also
considering an learning C11 atomics and deriving a standalone
wfcqueue w/o URCU atomics.

Thanks.
