-This directory contains the source code for all user-level processes,
-split out by main function.
-
-Naming convention:
-
- idle() classic 'idle' process; ensures there is always a
- runnable process to dispatch (vs., for instance, having
- dispatch() pause when there is nothing to dispatch).
-
- init() classic 'init' process; starts the idle process, and
- starts (and restarts) the user shell program.
-
- shell() "user shell" process, for spawning individual tests
-
- progN() program source code for user process(es) 'N'
-
-All of these expect at least one command-line argument. All are invoked
-with command lines of this form:
-
- name x n
-
-Each of these is designed to be compiled and linked separately, with the
-resulting load modules bundled into a blob for automatic loading by the
-bootstrap. Each will typically use one or more library functions from the
-../lib directory.
