Hi all,
       do any body knows what the solaris does when a context/address switch 
happens? 
       since the entity of solaris schedule is kernel thread , and not like 
linux , solaris separates user address space and kernel address, so when a 
thread make a syscall, there will be a address space changing ..my question is 
:how the kernel make this happens? I know there is an ASI register in SPARC, it 
is said ASI has something to do with this procedure, anybody knows how to use 
it? another question is :is there any register like the cr3(x86) in sparc ? how 
to use it?

       I want to know these answers for so long..thx for your help.
