hi all,
is there an api / usage model / or best practice for opaque "handles" ?
"it depends" :) What are you wanting to do exactly?
Im aware of 1 case: the handle returned by zs_malloc I have tried to use it, and have run into locking conflicts when trying to keep the memory zs_mapped longer than the duration of a function. OTOH, if I map and unmap within the function, things work, but this is unacceptable overhead.
so I figure I should read some good code, rather than keep hacking at bad code.
Again, what are you trying to do? greg k-h
