Abstract: This paper presents the design and implementation of a two-level thread scheduling system on NetBSD. This system provides a foundation for efficient and flexible threads on both uniprocessor and multiprocessor machines. The work is based on the scheduler activations kernel interface proposed by Anderson et al. [1] for userlevel control of parallelism in the presence of multiprogramming and multiprocessing. (Update)
Context of citations to this paper: More
...Relatively few Linux applications use multi threading. The same is true of the BSD based operating systems, which until recently [31] did not provide kernel support for multi threading. The use of other shared memory facilities is also not terribly widespread. We can...
