FreeBSD currently has a userland thread implementation. Threads are not scheduled individually. FreeBSD-CURRENT will move towards a scheduler activation-based design; this is the KSE project. > My second question is; all the BSD family uses the same approach to the > thread implementation? OpenBSD's thread library is more or less the same as FreeBSD's. I don't think NetBSD has (had?) a default thread library, but there have been various competing implementations.
