will inconvenient for diff the code between local and database like svn status, it will have lots of M, but in fact, you only change one file. Any suggestions is welcome Thank you! -- Best regards, Peter Chen -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies&quo

Re: The biggest continual physical memory we can get during the kernel running?

Thank you, peter. Yes, graphical guys ask me the same questions, and the other device drivers which don't support scatter buffer also have this doubt. Best Regards, Peter Chen On Mon, 2009-03-30 at 11:53 -0400, Peter Teoh wrote: > On Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 8:13 AM, Peter Chen wrote: &g

Two questions about scheduler

d for process B. 2. At IRQ handler, it wakes up process B. then, after IRQ exiting, the higher priority process B will preempt process A who is interrupted by above IRQ. -- Best Regards Peter Chen -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecar

CONFIG_SMP for single-core CPU

Hi all, My CPU is AMD Sempron 2800+: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_Sempron_microprocessors#.22Palermo.22_.28Socket_754.2C_D0.2C_E3_.26_E6.2C_90_nm.29 It sounds a single-core cpu, as I haven't find it at AMD cpu lists which support SMP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_multiproces
