libxshmfence - Shared memory 'SyncFence' synchronization primitive
------------------------------------------------------------------
This library offers a CPU-based synchronization primitive compatible
with the X SyncFence objects that can be shared between processes
using file descriptor passing.
There are two underlying implementations:
1) On Linux, the library uses futexes
2) On other systems, the library uses posix mutexes and condition
variables.
All questions regarding this software should be directed at the
