Do we mean: Threads can block (e.g. in the kernel) independently of the execution of other threads in the same process? > 5/ All threads share the same file resources. The resources shared among threads in the same process should be configurable. The file descriptors, resource limits, credentials, address space, and so forth should be shared, unless otherwise specified at the time of the creation of the thread. Um, of course it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to NOT share the address space :-) -- Jacques Vidrine / n@nectar.com / nectar@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
