But the ideas certainly are interesting. :-) Rice University has been doing that a lot with their licenses, these days. I don't know if they would have done this anyway, or if it's an overreaction on their part to FreeBSD ignoring their patches. Since they aren't a publically funded university, I don't think there is much you can do, unless the work was done under a DARPA grant, and even then, it would be a pain to fight. Back to the original topic, though... you might want to ask Alfred for his CPU affinity patches that he did. They are more for locking things to a CPU than affinity, but they can do what you want to do (even though I think what you seem to want looks more like an SVR4 "fixed" scheduling class). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
