Are the preempt, low latency, and cpu affinity patches applicable to the amd-64
platform running in native 64 bit mode? I would also like to know the same about
the O(1) scheduler patches. If not, will/does the 2.6 kernel implement these for
amd-64?
Thank you
Mark

The CPU affinity system call, the preemptive kernel, and the O(1)
scheduler are all available for x86-64 on 2.6.
I don't think any of the patches have been ported to 2.4, although the
CPU affinity system call would be trivial to get working.
