Greetings, I have been slowly attempting to port a program named Hercules to FreeBSD. My problem is the difference between Linux and FreeBSD's mtio.h and pthread implimentation. I'm wondering if there are any good references that I should read to assist in this porting. I have reading the porting handbook on the FreeBSD website which has helped me with creating the entry for the ports tree, but not much help with the actual port itself. The source code for mtio.h in both OS's has helped me figure out what is lacking or different between the OS's but I'm having a little trouble groking the actual kernel level code. Any help in terms of readme's or even textbooks is welcomed, I'm just trying to get this to make sense to me... and I'm not sure if I'm biting off more than I can chew. Thanks a bunch!
