>With two kernels running on their own, how do you >handle that? > I think I might be going a "bit" off-topic here. But the philosophy of runnig two kernels , on their own, is the philosophy of RTLinux a RTOS. Its quite simple really : A RT Kernel (the microkernel) runs, the vanilla Linux kernel as an idle process. Thus, only non-rt tasks are marked as "pending" and whenever there are no rt tasks running, Linux is woken up and it can perform the "pending" tasks. This is really only a gist of how thetwo kernels run and this is very specific to the RT context. Raseel. Thanks Raseel Bhagat

Hey Kenneth, can you explain how you would allocate the two swap spaces to the two different cpu's ? I have never worked on a SMP machine myself and its intriguing. Raseel Thanks Raseel Bhagat

Re: Swap Space
by abhilash kumar 12 Feb '05

Hi all Well abt the Swap space I have a system with 512 RAM so does that mean that I need around a GB of swap space???? Well swap space is used to swap out the processes when there is less memory available so If u have enough memory there is no need of a swap space at all. I tested this out with many processes running and found that the swap space utilization was 0 and only my memory was being utilized. So its "recommended" for better performance to have a swap space of twice the amount of RAM iff u have less RAM(< 256 RAM and u r using X and all the heavy stuff). Although u can allocate a swap space of the same amt of RAM or less. In case while using the system u find that the system is running low on memory then u can create a swap file and use it temorarily as the swap space..NO NEED TO CREATE A SWAP PARTITION.
