1999-06-23  Robey Pointer  <robey@netscape.com>

	* internals.h: Added p_nextlock entry to separate queueing for a
	lock from queueing for a CV (sometimes a thread queues on a lock
	to serialize removing itself from a CV queue).

	casx not cas, also successful casx returns the old value in rd
	and not the new value.

1999-05-16  Xavier Leroy  <Xavier.Leroy@inria.fr>

	* manager.c: If pthread_create() is given a NULL attribute
	and the thread manager runs with a realtime policy, set the
	scheduling policy of the newly created thread back to SCHED_OTHER.
	* manager.c: If the PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED attribute is given,
	initialize the schedpolicy field of new_thread->p_start_args
	to that of the calling thread.

	* sysdeps/sparc/sparc64/pt-machine.h (__compare_and_swap): cas
