Quick question(s): 1. Is AIO SMP-safe? 2. If not, how could one force coherency? (Read and rewrite locked a word from each cache line?) Is it worth the effort, or should one not use AIO across process boundaries? I'm asking primarily about 4.x, unless anyone has good guesses of how 5.x will be. ;-) I'll also keep an eye out for KSEs... thanks to Terry and others for alerting me to those. (KSEs really answer most of my recent questions, but I don't think that I can wait that long, nor do I have the kernel background to really offer any assistance in the KSE project...)
