Thread scheduling in 2.6 kernels

> Nope, tls here refers to "thread".....

Ok, got it...you're referring to Thread Local Storage. I think you
meant for me to search "/lib/tls" _path_ in the addr space mappings of
my main process, right?

Googling also shows that libtls is the TLS library

I did not see any tls dir entries in my process' addr map:

$ cat /proc/<my apps' pid>/maps | grep tls
$

As a matter of fact, there's no /lib/tls dir at all!

But I'm not sure if this means that NPTL is NOT supported....because I
can see the individual threads under the 'task' of my apps' /proc
listing...
