An SRB is SCHEDULEd to run either globally (implying no specific address  
space association) or locally, which means within an address space.   Local 
SRBs 
are chained off the local SRB chain within the address space, not  the TCB 
chain within the address space.  Global SRBs are dispatched  before any address 
space is dispatched.  Whenever an address space is  dispatched, its local SRBs, 
if any exist at that moment, are  dispatched before any TCBs are.
