Hello,
This is not related to Cooker, but since there is such a body of knowledge
out there I thought I would ask anyway.
Does anyone know :
a) What is the kernel 2.4 threading model. The old 2.2 had a many-to-many
model, but is this still true for 2.4.
b) IBM 're-discovered' the short comings of only having this model. They
produced some code that also put many-to-one and one-to-one threading into a
2.3 kernel. Was this code accepted into the kernel development tree ?
c) If the answer to b) is no, does any one know why not ?!?!
(The reasons I am asking are quite involved, but involve 'enterprise' level
product development, and the people I am enquiring for know a lot more about
this than me !!!)
I suppose the best person to ask is the man himself, but I don't know how to
contact Linus !
Thanks,
Owen
