Message-ID: <5155@mentor.cc.purdue.edu> Date: 14 Nov 89 15:56:27 GMT References: Reply-To: dls@mentor.cc.purdue.edu (David L Stevens) Organization: PUCC UNIX Group Lines: 12 I merged 4.3T (really post 4.3T) code into our NFS-speaking Sequent machines running DYNIX 2.1 and later DYNIX 3.0.X, X=1-17 (I believe). The interactions were minimal and virtually all the changes I had were due to the need for locking and reentrant code on a multiprocessor. For the most part the layer division keeps you worry free; you just need to make sure all the functions you're using have the arguments and semantics you want; busy work, really. The only difference that I remember offhand is the need for a larger max UDP packet size, but there were probably a couple other minor ones. -- +-DLS (dls@mentor.cc.purdue.edu)
