Hi, Now I've really attached the lockless receive patch. The previous patch [that I forgot to attach] was buggy, attached is an updated and tested patch: Description: - General cleanup of sys_msgrcv and sys_msgsnd: the function were too convoluted. - Enable lockless receive, update comments. - Use ipc_getref for sys_msgsnd(), it's better than rechecking that the msqid is still valid.
