Essentially, yes, but the differences are important. It's important to have a clear syscall interface instead of nesting through multiplexers. And we should get the batching/latency inputs right. (I'm for both min/max elements and arguably timeouts, but I could understand not wanting to go *that* far.) > Hmm, it looks like I'm lost here... Yeah, it seems my description might not have sunk in :). We're giving userspace a way to collect events without performing a system call. > I especially like idea about world happinness in a week or so :) A few weeks! :) - z - 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
