Some people were interested in playing with scheduler
activations being developed on the nathanw_sa branch.
You can find a snapshot of the branch for i386 at:
ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/i386/snapshot/20020215-nathanw_sa/
Don't bother installing this snapshot on a production
machine. However, some testing under load would be
useful. Please read the README file first.
The snapshot provides the necessary toolchain and
libc/libsyscall changes in order to track the branch.
From here, updates to libc/libsyscall and the kernel
should be (relatively) easy to track.
The snapshot also contains my custom hacks to libkvm
and its dependent system utilities (top, ps, w, uptime).
Their output is sometimes bogus.
Finally, big thumbs-up to Nathan for all his hard work!
