To attempt to make life a little easier, I started working today on some docco to help keep things more organized in the SMPng world. Specifically, I started on making a list of all the mutexes we have so far and what each one protects, etc. It is far from complete at this point (only sched_lock, vm86pcb_lock, and Giant are done at this point), but it is a proof of concept at least. It is written in DocBook, so that it can be checked into teh documentation tree and easily maintained by developers. (Well, easier than having 1 person be a bottleneck to receive all submissions). You can see the current HTML version at http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/mutex_list/article.html. Feedback (especially the necessary bits needed to document any mutexes you may have added) is welcome. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.baldwin.cx/~john/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
