I need to use asm() to incorporate assmbly language stuff into the C codes to do the context switching. This differs from architecture to architecture. If someone in the net has done some stuff similar to this, I would like to talk with her/him. Besides, I need to know how could I get the "XXX Architecture Manual" for as many platforms as possible (RS6K, ALPHA, SGI, etc.). Thanks a lot for help. Honbo
