Hey peeps, gotta say it borders on pathetic that this PR has been sitting here for more than 4 months. It's a big mystery why Linux didn't make rwlock/shared_mutex prioritize writers (to avoid writer starvation) by default. Reader starvation is only a hypothetical possibility. When it's an actual possibility, you're doing lots of writing, so mostly exclusive locks, so just use a friggin' regular mutex. It's not like it's a big PR anyway. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
