I think it would be nice to have that option. The mechanics of making the kernel pre-emption safe are fairly straight-forward (see preempt* macros in 2.5). The hard part is of course finding all the places that need to be protected. Don, perhaps this should be added to the todo list? --david ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
