Subject: easy question on syscall control flow
Date: Mon, 04 Oct 2004 15:24:20 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4161BF84.9030306@nortelnetworks.com> (raw)


If I drop down from userspace to the kernel to run a syscall, is there any way 
for me to get back to that process' userspace without finishing the syscall (ie 
through signal handlers, etc.)?

I think I'm doing some extra locking that I don't actually need, and I thought 
I'd double-check before removing it.

Thanks,

Chris
