2002-09-30 Thread Julian Elischer


I was talking to someone about lightweight interrupt threads
and interactions with KSEs and specifically about
KSE borrowing..

Believe it or not, I can't remember who it was..
if it was you, let me know :-)

Dunno who it was, but my understanding is that we already actually use
lightweight interrupt threads on sparc64, so you might want to peruse
there and look at the approach taken.  :-)  You might have been talking to
Bosko (possibly at USENIX ATC), as he was maintaining an i386 lightweight
interrupt thread implementation (although I think it got fairly hosed over
time due to a lot of changes in the main tree).

Not yet :)  Its in my perforce tree still; still some issues to resolve.

I remember Bosko mentioning this though (kse loaning).
