Detailed Description

futex structure

A k_futex is a lightweight mutual exclusion primitive designed to minimize kernel involvement. Uncontended operation relies only on atomic access to shared memory. k_futex are tracked as kernel objects and can live in user memory so that any access bypasses the kernel object permission management mechanism.
