I'd like to bring a kernel thread implementation, ported from NetBDS by the newconfig project, into the kernel. Who would like to review things before they go into the tree? I can see many benefits for having this in the tree, but very little downside. This should allow people to more easily port raid-frame from NetBSD if they desire. FYI, this is an outshoot of the porting of the newconfig code to new-bus. Each bridge controller has its own even thread to handle cards events in a sane manner. It is basically a stripped down pccardd in the kernel, but one that has a huge hint database. I'm not proposing, at this time, to bring it on. I just want to get the kthread stuff in as a separate issue. Comments? Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
