WSL

• Add support for the futex pi-aware operations. [GH 1006]
  • Note that priorities are not currently a supported WSL feature so there are limitations, but standard usage should be unblocked.
• Windows firewall support for WSL processes. [GH 1852]
  • For example, to allow the WSL python process to listen on any port, use the elevated Windows cmd:
    netsh.exe advfirewall firewall add rule name=wsl_python dir=in action=allow program="C:\users\<username>\appdata\local\packages\canonicalgrouplimited.ubuntuonwindows_79rhkp1fndgsc\localstate\rootfs\usr\bin\python2.7" enable=yes
  • For additional details on how to add firewall rules, see link
