<h3>Required features for 5.3-RELEASE</h3>
<table border=1 width="100%">
<tr><th>Issue</th><th>Status</th><th>Responsible</th><th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr><th>Issue</th><th>Status</th><th>Responsible</th><th>Description</th></tr>
<tr>
<td>SCHED_ULE as the default scheduler</td>
<td>--</td>
<td>&a.jeff;</td>
<td>SCHED_ULE provides better interactivity, higher performance, and the
ability to support pinning and affinity. Basic HTT scheduling policies
should be in place for 5.3 also.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>KSE as the default threads library</td>
<td>--</td>
<td>&a.davidxu;, &a.deischen;</td>
<td>KSE has matured to the point of being more stable and POSIX-compliant
than the traditional libc_r. All Tier-1 platforms <b>MUST</b> have
stable KSE support for 5.3 in order to support a consistent transition.
Additionally, all ports that depend on the pthreads API must be modified
to properly detect and support the default threading library.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Updated binutils for all platforms</td>
<td>--</td>
<td>--</td>
<td>Binutils needs updating in order to support new platforms, newer GDB
versions, and Thread Local Storage.</td>
