Hi,

Perhaps you are right that this istn't the best list, but misc is misc
after all...

My question was definitely not precize enough though.

I wanted to know if BSD kernel could be augmented with QNX like SRR IPC
without the requirement to copy data from process1 memory to kernel and
then from kernel to process2 memory. In Linux it is not possible because
the kernel can see only the memory of the current process so the whole
implementation will never match QNX's in speed and elegance.

I could probably spend a few days to conclude this from kernel source but I
was hoping that some VM expert will be able to give me the ansewer in five
seconds.

Regards,
Wojtek
