Subject: Re: [9fans] Why is the tcp/ip stack of plan9 implemented in kernel?
Date: Sat, 27 Jan 2018 09:45:17 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <59023bc9d534255352961e36cd7a3bec@quintile.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <6500C762-F156-42DF-8A78-9B411EB24E35@lsub.org>
in early versions of plan9 the tcp/ip stack in Streams, inherited (I assume) from V10.
This turned out not to be as clean nor as efficent as hoped and this was dropped
for a more traditional implementation in later releases. Maybe the bad experiences
of poor performance informed the decision for an in-kernel implementation?
