I'm just looking for what people want the API to be here. With that in

I think a sched_yield_to is one interface:
int sched_yield_to(pid_t);
For futex(), the extension is needed for the FUTEX_WAIT operation. We
need a new operation FUTEX_WAIT_FOR or so which takes another (the
fourth) parameter which is the PID of the target.
For FUTEX_LOCK_PI we need no extension. The futex value is the PID of
the current owner. This is required for the whole interface to work
in the first place.
