Yeah, that's a nice idea. But sockfs is sufficiently different that
it's probably not worth it. Left for Al's larger brain.
Here's the new (tested) futex patch (actually 4 minipatches but patch
-p1 < msg works fine).
Updated futex library at:
http://www.[cc].kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rusty/futex-2.2.tar.gz
Name: Remove requirement for page to be writable.
Author: Rusty Russell
Status: Trivial
D: It's possible that someone could be passively monitoring: write
D: access is no longer strictly required (since new futex implementation).

Author: Rusty Russell
Status: Tested in 2.5.20
Depends: Futex/copy-from-user.patch.gz Futex/unpin-page-fix.patch.gz
Depends: Futex/waitq.patch.gz
D: This changes the implementation so that the waker actually unpins
D: the page. This is preparation for the async interface, where the
D: process which registered interest is not in the kernel.
