21.1Slukem#
31.1Slukem# This file contains a list of branches that exist in the NetBSD CVS
41.1Slukem# tree and their current state.
51.1Slukem#
61.1Slukem# This list is necessarily incomplete.
71.1Slukem# 
81.1Slukem# Within reason, developers may create branch and version tags at any
91.1Slukem# time for any purpose.  To avoid name collisions, private tags should
101.1Slukem# have names which begin with the developer's NetBSD login name
111.1Slukem# followed by a - or _ character (e.g., thorpej_scsipi,
121.1Slukem# thorpej-signal)
131.1Slukem# 
141.1Slukem# Any branch or version tag not listed here should be assumed to be
151.1Slukem# private to the developer who created it.  It is inappropriate for
161.1Slukem# anyone other than that developer to commit, move tags, or otherwise
171.1Slukem# modify the contents of the branch.
181.1Slukem#
191.1Slukem# Please update this file when a new branch is ready for consumption
201.1Slukem# by folks other than the maintainer, or when the use or status of an
211.1Slukem# existing branch changes significantly.

2571.8Sgmcgarry		from the machine-dependent context switch code is the
2581.8Sgmcgarry		first step in cleaning up the scheduler.  It is necessary
2591.8Sgmcgarry		for the newlock branch, making the scheduler SMP friendly,
2601.8Sgmcgarry		adding real-time scheduler extensions, and reducing the
2611.8Sgmcgarry		number of code paths for LWP and proc switching.

6391.1SlukemNotes:		No longer active due to lack of time, and introduction
6401.1Slukem		of UBC. In terms of UBC, the primary cache for
6411.1Slukem		file data is the VM cache, which needs to operate
6421.1Slukem		in terms of VM pages. As no existing device has native
6431.1Slukem		pages the same size as our VM pages, there already is
6441.1Slukem		a mapping going on between the VM system and the
6451.1Slukem		underlying blocks. So it would be easier and cleaner
6461.1Slukem		to adjust that to deal w/ different block sizes.
6471.1Slukem		Also with UBC, all i/o is in terms of bytes at an offset
6481.1Slukem		with a certain length, so the exact block size isn't a big
6491.1Slukem		deal.
6501.1Slukem
6511.1Slukem		Any other wrstuden-devbsize tag may (and should) go away.
