How does the new scheduler/API handle different classes? If you want to have processes^Wthreads in 3 or 4 different scheduling classes (perhaps real-time, time-sharing, etc, a la Solaris), how does "a scheduler" handle this? Is there only ever one scheduler selected in the kernel, and it is up to this scheduler to handle all the threads in each class? Or can you stack schedulers somehow, so that each class gets its own scheduler, and it's up to the top-level scheduler to schedule amongst the classes? -- Dan Eischen To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
