The relative timeout in linuxthreads


The current pthread interface only supports the timeout value in
absolute time. The problem is under certain conditions, the clock
can change. As the result, a thread may not time out in the right
time. I will add a new interface to support the timeout value in
relative time to solve our problems. Does anyone have any other
suggestions?

Thanks.


H.J.
