Message-ID: <20171026001203.GD12341@eros> (raw)

Is there any 'non-process' context apart from interrupt context? I had a
re-read of sleep sections in ldd3 and in Robert Love's book but am still
not totally clear on this.

The reason for the question is understanding when we cannot sleep.

thanks in advance,
Tobin.
