Hi,

Baruch Siach and I have been working on supporting TLS and NPTL for the Xtensa architecture, and I would like to start committing those changes.

Most changes are very limited to the Xtensa architecture, so shouldn't affect other architectures at all. However, the Xtensa implementation requires TLS descriptor support, which Baruch has ported to uClibc, and it touches shared code. We'll post that patch for review.

I understand that there have been requests for a next release, and it would be great if we could get NPTL support for Xtensa into that release. Some library functions are only implemented in NPTL and not the old linuxthreads library, so I see failures when building some packages with buildroot.

Please let me know if you have any objects or suggestions.

Thanks,
-Chris
