Ekuphunyezweni kwe-futex (i-fast userspace mutex) ifowuni yenkqubo, ukusetyenziswa kwememori ye-stack emva kokuba ikhululekile ifunyenwe kwaye yapheliswa. Oku, kwakhona, kwavumela umhlaseli ukuba enze ikhowudi yakhe kumxholo we-kernel, kunye nazo zonke iziphumo ezivela kwindawo yokhuseleko. Ukuba sesichengeni bekukwikhowudi yesiphathi semposiso.
Ukulungiswa Olu buthathaka luvele kwi-Linux mainline ngoJanuwari 28 kwaye kusuku olungaphambi kwezolo lwangena kwiikernels 5.10.12, 5.4.94, 4.19.172, 4.14.218.
Ngexesha lengxoxo yolu lungiso, kwacetyiswa ukuba obu buthathaka bukhona kuzo zonke iikernel ukusukela ngo-2008:

FWIW, esi sibophelelo sine:
Ukulungiswa: 1b7558e457ed ("futexes: lungisa impazamo yokuphatha kwi futex_lock_pi")
kwaye eso esinye isibophelelo sisuka ku-2008
I-Linux distros kunye nokuthunyelwa kuyachaphazeleka, ngaphandle kokuba kukho into
ngenye indlela iwunciphise umba kwezinye iinguqulelo zekernel.
