The FUTEX_LOCK_PI futex operand uses a CLOCK_REALTIME based absolute timeout since it was implemented, but it does not require that the FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME flag is set, because that was introduced later. In theory as none of the user space implementations can set the FUTEX_CLOCK_REALTIME flag on this operand, it would be possible to creatively abuse it and make the meaning invers, i.e. select CLOCK_REALTIME when not set and CLOCK_MONOTONIC when set. But that's a nasty hackery. Another option would be to have a new FUTEX_CLOCK_MONOTONIC flag only for FUTEX_LOCK_PI, but that's also awkward because it does not allow libraries to handle the timeout clock selection consistently. So provide a new FUTEX_LOCK_PI2 operand which implements the timeout semantics which the other operands use and leave FUTEX_LOCK_PI alone.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
