- Hi,
- I wanted to know whether it is possible to implement shared
- primitives in i860. I am interested in locks implementation on i860.
- Is it possible to implement locks on variables? Will it be efficient?
- Is there a simulator for the i860 or similar architecture CPU's
- available via public domain facilities.
-
- Thanks,
- Subbiah.
