Since I gave a big thumbs up for Evgivny's kevent work yesterday on linux-kernel, you might want to start by comparing your work to his. Because his has the advantage that 1) we have code now and 2) he has written many test applications and performed many benchmarks against his code which has flushed out most of the major implementation issues. I think most of the people who have encouraged your work are unaware of Evgivny's kevent stuff, which is extremely unfortunate, the two works are more similar than they are different. I do not think discussing all of this on netdev would be perceived as noise. :) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
