Hi, Can you please specify the difference between interrupt threads and regular kernel threads in the context of the different default taskqueues? Meaning, I saw that the taskqueue taskqueue_thread is actually a kernel thread running the function taskqueue_thread_loop, And the 3 other default taskqueues are working with ithreads. Which of the above preempts the other? What should I use if performance is critical (something equivalent to Linux softirq...)? Thanks, Orit Moskovichhome | help
