Will there be a situation where two threads running on two different processors tries to write to the same logging file ?
If your application has two threads that both write to the same file, then you have to serialize that access yourself if you don't want output from the two threads mixed up.
In that case how do i achive synchronization or it will be taken care by smp kernel itself ?
The kernel won't do it for you. You can use a mutex, you can use flock() or more or less any other synchronization method you can think of. -- Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@xxxxxxxxx> Don't top-post http://www.catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/T/top-post.html Plain text mails only, please http://www.expita.com/nomime.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
