631 * Added urcu/cds.h and merged all "Concurrent Data Containers" (CDS)
632 into a single .so: liburcu-cds.so to have a single header/shared
633 object holding all concurrency-aware data containers. It provides
634 support for RCU lists, queues and stacks at the moment.
635 * liburcu 0.6.0 now allows linking a single application with multiple
636 flavors of RCU. This required a library API change which is
637 incompatible with older 0.5.x liburcu. The .so version number

640 processes using fork() without following exec().

700 * library names changes: liburcu becomes the "default" version, using
701 sys_membarrier() when available, and using liburcu-mb as a
703 * The signal-based liburcu is renamed from liburcu to
704 liburcu-signal. People previously using the signal-based
705 "liburcu" will automatically be moved to the "default" liburcu

728 * new "liburcu-bp.so" : "Bulletproof RCU", made especially for
729 the UST userspace tracer. It's a library that sacrifices a bit
