Miklic" X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en] (X11; U; FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT alpha) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-arch@freebsd.org Subject: LWP Support Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-arch@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG All, I am currently working on OSF1 support for FreeBSD/Alpha, and I found that FreeBSD apparently has no support for any type of LWP mechanism--not only would LWPs make my OSF1 emulation work much easier, but it would also benefit anyone trying to create effective and efficient multi-threaded programs... Does anyone know if there is any work being done on this front, or would anyone be interested in helping me through some of the FreeBSD internals to start my own?
