Virtual Wire v.s. APIC

Virtual Wire v.s. APIC

[Earle Nietzel]

Under the new 2.4.x series kernel, should you use the APIC mode?

Or do you have to continue using the Virtual Wire mode?

Thanks for any answers...





P.S. I am only participating on the linux-smp so any linux-kernel replies 
please forward me a copy, thanx.

DOT call graphs of Rik and AA VMs

[Martin Devera]

Hi,

While I tried to understand MM in 2.4 kernels I decided to create call
graph of it (in DOT). It could help everyone who tries to understand it.

At least they are very nice :) You can also see difference in complexity
of both VMs.

Enjoy. devik

Oh yes, it's really lovely.  An great starting point for reverse-enginee^W^W 
understanding both VM designs.

There are sources and various notes (printing) on site mentioned above.
There is idea of dynamic generator for all kernels too.

These graphs remind me of the GCC node introspector project...
