IMO this library has some crucial problems like changing the TPL during context switching. For my project "EFIDroid" I've invested many months analyzing, testing and implementing my own threading implementation based on LK(LittleKernel, a MIT licensed project) threads and get/set -context. The result is a pretty stable implementation which can even be used in UEFI drivers: https://github.com/efidroid/uefi_edk2packages_EFIDroidLKLPkg/tree/master/UEFIThreads I'm currently using this lib for my LKL(LinuxKernelLibrary) port to be able to use linux touchscreen drivers in UEFI - so you could say it has been well tested. The only "problem" is that it only supports ARM right now and that the get/set context implementation was copied (and simplified) from glibc which means that this part is GPL code.
