[-- Attachment #1 --] Hello, For some reason, I want to understand how the queueing of blocked threads in the kernel works when waiting for a lock, which is if I understand correctly done by the turnstiles and sleepqueues. I'm the proud owner of The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System book, but for some reason, I can't find anything about it in the book. Is there a way to obtain information about how they work? I already read the source somewhat, but that shouldn't be an ideal solution, in my opinion. Yours, -- Ed Schouten <ed@fxq.nl> WWW: http://g-rave.nl/ [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFHE9fd52SDGA2eCwURAmlnAJ9CJBHhstxbBXG2O0IEj21bBk4nvwCfRSD8 a28rygT2kaoSC6e4QSn9Rs4= =l/Gb -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
