Also this is what wikipedia says of idle task. " In Unix-like operating systems such as Linux, the idle task has process ID zero, and never exits. " but the results which i am getting show that this task does exist and is initiating so many DMA transfers. what can be the possible reason for it or is it that i am missing something? devvrat
I think you misread the sentence: the task does exiST, but never exiTS. Thomas -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
