    3232== C) Condvar ==
    3333
    34 The user level, POSIX compliant, condvar is defined in the '''pthread''' library, implemented by the [https://www-soc.lip6.fr/trac/almos-mkh/browser/trunk/libs/libpthread/pthread.h pthread.h] and [https://www-soc.lip6.fr/trac/almos-mkh/browser/trunk/libs/libpthread/pthread.c pthread.c] files.

    3636It allows a given thread  to efficiently wait for a change in a shared user object.
     
    4949== D) Barrier ==
    5050
    51 The user level, POSIX compliant, barrier is defined in the '''pthread''' library, implemented by the [https://www-soc.lip6.fr/trac/almos-mkh/browser/trunk/libs/libpthread/pthread.h pthread.h] and [https://www-soc.lip6.fr/trac/almos-mkh/browser/trunk/libs/libpthread/pthread.c pthread.c] files.

    5353It can be used by a muti-threaded user application to implement a "rendez-vous" for a given number of  threads running in different clusters. As the implementation uses a toggle variable, the same barrier can be safely used several times, as long as the number of expected threads does not change.
     
    6565== E) Semaphore ==
    6666
    67 The user level, POSIX compliant, semaphore is defined in the '''semaphore''' library, implemented by the [https://www-soc.lip6.fr/trac/almos-mkh/browser/trunk/libs/libsemaphore/semaphore.h semaphore.h] and [https://www-soc.lip6.fr/trac/almos-mkh/browser/trunk/libs/libsemaphore/semaphore.c semaphore.c] files.

    6868
    6969It can be used by a muti-threaded user application to synchronize user threads running in different clusters, through the ''wait'' and ''post'' primitives.
