Hi,

I'd been chatting with Jens about this, so obviously I'm interested in the
feature...

One thing I was wondering about is what happens when there are multiple
OP_FUTEX_WAITs queued for the same futex, and that futex gets woken up. I
don't really have an opinion about what would be best, just that it'd be
helpful to specify the behaviour.

Greetings,

Andres Freund
