Raising flags in a process structure was the idea I had about signal posting. It is this "cross-processor interrupt" thing what made me doubt. I've been looking for information about this, and it seems to be Solaris related. This is a quote from the Solaris Internals book:
Quote:
Interprocessor interrupts
The delivery of a signal may require interrupting a thread on another processor
However, I still don't know why such a signal delivery requires interrupting the processor the process is running in. Why can't those flags be simply raised for this process?
