.... only one other type of application where kernel activity is a ected by an application directly manipulating data in its own address space as is done with the ECB: providing a scheduler with hints as to what state a user space thread is in to more e ectively deal with lock contention issues [33]. Consequently, the ECB, is a rare example of a data structure that is shared between applications and the kernel. A promising avenue of future research is to investigate other operating system facilities that may bene t from such a shared memory based interface. This design overview addresses ....
