    [PATCH] semtimedop - semop() with a timeout · f99a1a55
    Andrew Morton authored
    Patch from Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com> (plus a few cleanups
    and a speedup from yours truly)
    
    Adds the semtimedop() function - semop with a timeout.  Solaris has
    this.  It's apparently worth a couple of percent to Oracle throughput
    and given the simplicity, that is sufficient benefit for inclusion IMO.
    
    This patch hooks up semtimedop() only for ia64 and ia32.
