Not a problem; we would just require that this exception handler be a trusted entity. For this to work, it must be impossible for an unprivileged task to change its exception handler. In Mach, anyone can change their own exception handler; in the proposed L4 scheme, will that still be so? _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
