[Schemix-devel] Updates

[Dr William Bland]

Hi all,
        A couple of changes in CVS:

1) Schemix now understands C types char,short,int,long,float,double as
   well as all the unsigned variants.  For example, to ask the system
   how many processes have been started on your box since it was last
   rebooted, you can do:
        (assert-type 'unsigned-long kernel::total_forks)
        (display kernel::total_forks)
   and if you were feeling particularly nasty you could fool the kernel
   into thinking it had started a different number of processes:
        (set! kernel::total_forks 42)

2) Schemix now compiles on both 2.5 and 2.4 kernels.  If you want to
   compile it on 2.5 you have to set SCHEMIX_USE_DEVFS=0 and
   SCHEMIX_USE_KALLSYMS=0 (both in schemix.h) at the moment.

Best wishes,
                Bill.
