[comp.os.mach] External Pagers

zwilling@barney.cs.wisc.edu (Mike Zwilling) (09/09/89)

I'm using Mach Release 2 and am interested in developing some
some code using the external pager facilities.  I noticed in the
documentation that the external pager calls are not available
except in special experimental versions of the compiler.  Does
anyone know when these facilities will be available?  Will they
be available in the next release?

Thanks in advance,
Mike

The external pager (XP) facilities are standard in Mach 2.5.
The kernel source still has a MACH_XP compilation option,
but the non-MACH_XP code is already suffering from bit-rot.
