They are different. kern_et.c provides event timer drivers API, timeevents.c consumes it to manage kernel clocks. kern_et.c theoretically can be used without timeevents.c if some other code consume timers, for example, exposing them to user-level. May be names indeed cryptic a bit, but I had no better ideas. > or perhaps called subr_eventtimers.c instead? Whatever you like, but why exactly so and why "subr_" important? -- Alexander Motin _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
