Sure, I mean the idea, not the actual existing code. Something simple as
sysmon_pswitch(9). Say
struct sysmon_sleep {
const char *smpsl_name;
void *smpsl_arg;
void (*smpsl_func)(void *, int);
};
int sysmon_sleep_register(struct sysmon_sleep *);
int sysmon_sleep_unregister(struct sysmon_sleep *);
And the smpsl::smpsl_func(arg, state) would be called from an ioctl, invoked
by the zzz(8) program.
