Guess I can give up Usenet for a few months. :)
We should probably agree on a common name for the thread struct that
isn't likely to overlap anyone else's likely names for thread structs:
lwkt_thread, lwthread, lw_thread, something like that. maybe grab some
mindspace: dragonthread?
/*
* Use the convenient mostly pre-built message stored in the
* userthread structure
*/
msg = &curthread->td_sysmsg;
msg = &curthread->td_sysmsg[READ] or something like that, no?
* (later on) development of a kernel-supported signal infrastructure
for proper POSIX signal handling.
First pass would be synchronous signal handlers, so caught signals are
delivered as messages, otherwise they kill or ignore as now?
I will be focusing on the kernel side of things. I would like those
interested in doing the userland threading project to focus on the
userland side of things.
dragonfly.userapi?
