To make them SMP ready we have two options.

1. Instead of ISR disable/enable use ISR locks. Advantage: not interface
change. Disadvantage: space overhead for user which only use the
unprotected routines.

2. Add a new chain API, e.g. new structure rtems_chain_with_lock which
provides a chain + ISR lock. Advantage: you get what you need.
Disadvantage: API duplication.


The space quoted is not large however I wonder if clearly stating the need for a locked chain in the code is an advantage in terms of readability.

We already have protected and unprotected now. Does this relate ?

Subject: [PATCH] FIXME: Add and use _Assert_Owner_of_giant()

What is the FIXME referring to ?
