lightweight interrupt threads
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 :-) Julian To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
Re: lightweight interrupt threads
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).

I remember Bosko mentioning this though (kse loaning).
