[Discuss-gnuradio] Gating function??

Other than gr_pwr_squelch_xx, there doesn't appear to be a simple gating function in Gnu Radio--is that true? I tried gr_mute_ff(), but it injects zeros, rather than gating the stream, which is precisely what I don't want. The gr_pwr_squelch_ff() function appears to chew up a *lot* of CPU, which

I just merged the SMP scheduler code (features/mp-sched) into the trunk [9336]. Outside of the dependency on boost 1.35 or later (see below), things should continue to work without changes, but will be faster on SMP machines. This has been tested on Linux and NetBSD, and is believed to work on OS

George, The timestamp semantics that we are using on the USRP2 is that for Rx, the timestamp refers to the time that we clock the sample out of the DSP Rx pipeline (n.b., not the Rx FIFO). For transmit, it's the time we clock the sample into the TX pipeline (not the Tx FIFO). In both cases, t
