Subject: [TUHS] Chaosnet in v8
Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2024 07:26:41 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <877ch547fu.fsf@frodo.floren.lan> (raw)
I've been doing some research on Lisp machines and came across an
interesting tidbit: there was Chaosnet support in Unix v8, e.g.
https://www.tuhs.org/cgi-bin/utree.pl?file=V8/usr/sys/chunix/chaos.c
Does anyone remember why that went in? My first guess would be for
interoperability with the Symbolics users at Bell Labs (see Bromley's
"Lisp Lore", 1986), but that's just speculation.
