Linux folk,
I saw Peeter (Joot)'s post stating that his patch supporting TIDs, improved pthreads signal semantics, etc, is not ready to fold in, but making slow progress. Does this mean that there is now support for these features among kernel developers? I am hoping so. (I am interested in working on GDB-doesn't Cygnus maintain GDB for use in GNU PRO?-and I'd like to know if Peeter's direction is where the kernel is going.)
Second question: what is status of SMP Linux? I keep hearing that it is unstable and inefficient, but being redesigned. Is progress being made on this front?
