On this page, you say:
The algorithms described on this page are essentially the BSDI algorithms
plus accomodations we disussed at the Yahoo SMP meeting. However, I did
not do a direct port. I did a from-scratch rewrite because, simply put,
it was easier for me. The variables are named differently but I attempt
to follow the same API. All the work is subject to change... the point is
to make it work first, then clean it up later.
Does this include the locking primitives? In the case of the locking
primitives, there is functionality that we definitely need, such as the
witness code, and it probably would save effort to use the BSD/OS code.
I'm guessing that you are actually using the BSD/OS code in this case; I'm
just looking for clarification.
Thanks,
Jason
