so all you need is a queue? then implement a queue or find an existing implementation of a queue. i don't see what 'raw character code' you're talking about. there's an interface, that does not implement any queuing - each driver implements its own queuing mechanism. what you should think is, why are you implementing it in kernel space and not in user space? it _Sounds_ as if you're talking about implementing a protocol stack - is this the case? if it is, then have a look at how other protocol stacks are implemented in the kernel, and see which implementation suites you best. -- guy "For world domination - press 1, or dial 0, and please hold, for the creator." -- nob o. dy ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
