Hi

Kindly provide me with some basic insights
into kernel.

1) I want to know exact structure of kernel stack
and process stack in memory. It would be helpful
if description includes approximate memory addresses
of kernel stack,process stack, and different regions
in kernel stack and process stack. What happens
if there are multiple processes.

2) What about "current" data structure. Where is it
located on memory. If I am not wrong it will be
just below the process stack.

3)Which variable to use to access (I am in kernel
code) kernel stack. In "task_struct"
kernel_stack_page is not defined. Mine is
"linux 2.4.2 mvista".

I am not subscribed to this list, kindly send
me the reply to vraghava_raju@yahoo.com .
