what's in POSIX. I suppose some/all of these may not be posix.
So, what should we do to provide similar functionality? 

Option 1: implement these in glibc/syscalls... dunno what the glibc team
thinks

Option 2: provide a PI device-specific ioctl to get the info it needs
from the kernel

#1 seems like a better solution to me, what do you guys think?


The other part that is missing is the ability to bind a process to a
particular CPU in a SMP system (i.e. makes sure a process starts on CPU
n and stays on it). I did some digging into this and found that this is
basically not supported by Linux's SMP system. There were some pset
patches for 2.2.x and 2.3.x, but nothing that I could find for 2.4.x

Wonder if this is something that we can do, or if it's more of a
(potential) 2.5.x thing....
