 | | A pure kernel thread-based implementation depends upon the operating system to define, store, and reload the execution states of individual threads. The operating system must now manage on a per-thread basis some of the information it's traditionally maintained for an individual process. For instance, each thread must have its own scheduling priority, its own set of saved registers, and its own CPU assignment. Other types of information, such as the file table, remain associated with the process. | |
