spl (short for set priority level) is the name for a collection of Unix interrupt priority control commands. The functions include 'splhigh, splserial, splsched, splclock, splstatclock, splvm, spltty, splsofttty, splnet, splbio, splsoftnet, splsoftclock, spllowersoftclock, spl0, splx''. :"The naming goes back to the early days of UNIX on the PDP-11. The PDP-11 had a relatively simplistic level-based interrupt structure. When running at a specific level, only higher priority interrupts were allowed. UNIX named functions for setting the interrupt priority level after the PDP-11 SPL instruction, so initially the functions had names like spl4 and spl7. Later machines came out with interrupt masks, and BSD changed the names to more descriptive names such as splbio (for block I/O) and splhigh (block out all interrupts)." :-- Greg Lehey, ''Improving the FreeBSD SMP implementation'', 2001 USENIX Annual Technical Conference - FREENIX These commands set the interrupt masks, while returning their previous contents. This returned information, can then be used with the ''splx'' routine to change the masks back. ==External links== * (The FreeBSD SMPng implementation ) * (spl manpage ) for a BSD implementation 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Spl (Unix)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
