That's a very platform-specific question. Or do you mean "does OpenSolaris have a committed/documented, kernel- and/or userland-callable function that does ..." ? In which case the answer is no, you'll probably need architecture-specific assembly. (the hypervisors, both xVM and sun4v, will have hypercall equivalents for the operation, but these won't be callable from userland programs either) FrankH. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
