Sure, run time failure needs to be considered. Falling back from PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT to PTHREAD_PRIO_NONE is relatively safe. What we really need is recursive mutexes. Removing the pre 1995 compatible code (older than VxWorks 5.5, yay) would simplify the implementation a lot. As long as we document the drop of support, I think we are fine. -- https://code.launchpad.net/~dirk.zimoch/epics-base/+git/epics-base/+merge/394327 Your team EPICS Core Developers is subscribed to branch epics-base:7.0.
