It can report that condvar is busy while it is no longer such, and in reverse, it can delete a condvar which is started being used. Of course, if application allows such race, it is buggy. But my point is that threading library implementation cannot make this check non-racy without applicatin cooperation. That said, I would prefer not to add the check, at least because we cannot guarantee that EBUSY is returned always, and that what the error is returned, it actually happen. Might be, some wording in the man page explaining the details is due. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
