libxshmfence - Shared memory 'SyncFence' synchronization primitive

This library offers a CPU-based synchronization primitive compatible with the X SyncFence objects that can be shared between processes using file descriptor passing.

There are two underlying implementations:

  1. On Linux, the library uses futexes

  2. On other systems, the library uses posix mutexes and condition variables.

All questions regarding this software should be directed at the Xorg mailing list:
