[okl4-developer] rootspace server

[Jorge Torres]

Hi Geoffrey, okl4.org,

Thank you for you for your prompt answer, but I probably wasn't clear
explaining my concerns:

Yes true, I know debug name has nothing to do with thread's space, I'm just
calling them by their debbug names so it is easier for me to explain what I
want to know, both L_timer and L_syscal thread are part of Wombat and yet
L_syscal is not in the rootspace, my question was more about, where is it
that L_timer is specified to be privileged (be in the rootspace), since such
thread creation is specified by the build system, I can't find where, it is
not in the iguana's SCOnscript for sure, does elfweaver specifies this too?,
if so (if L_timer thread space is set by the build system), this means that
I could do the same for a new ig-server,

Thank you very much for your time, and I hope this time I have made my
question a little more clear than initially,

Cheers,

Jorge
