Be it kernel mode context - user mode context, kernel space - user space context, interruptible - atomic context. So, it depends on what do you talk about. IMHO, context itself refers to "attributes and environment that describe the situation". For example, in interruptible - atomic context, we focus on whether there is a chance interrupt is coming (and whether interrupt is non blocked), or whether we should make it non interruptible. In other word...put it simple, to define "context", we need to know "the context of the situation" regards, Mulyadi. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
