Subject: programming tips

you can do stuff like

int x = read(x) = process(macro);

its like a little loop that occupies a thread

lets say im doing cpu stuff (im new to kernel programming.. some
asshole fried all my monitors) and i want wait for a return value

i can do
int x = cpu_read(code) = return_value_that_you_seek;

additionally i feel that, with security, that there should be a local
sql server tied to the linux kernel, so you can do stuff like easily
share data in a lan

sql in the linux kernel can be sorta secure if you do it from top
level = kernel to down = userspace

hope this helps, new to kernel programming and just want to help
