Hi Gabi and Muli,
I'm sorry about the mistake- you understood me correctly.
I'm not sure it will speed up the OS, however I'm doing
Hi Muli,
It seems like a good idea to check the time of a single block read against a
single context switch, we'll try looking more into it.
Try to find the place where the faulting process is put to sleep
and convert that code to busy wait instead, terminating the busy-wait
when the page has
to check first what Muli has suggested -
compare times.

You can work on 2.6.24 if you prefer. I just picked some version and checked

Yes. arch/x86 is now for both 32 and 64 bits.
Cheers,

I haven't looked at those bits recently, but it sounds like Gabi is

Hi all,
I have a question regarding the linux kernel (for those of you who are
familiar with it).
I'm looking for a way to add a change to the linux kernel in order to check

flag, so as not to trigger a context switch in case of a major page fault.
