Compared to BeOS, the split has been reversed, to be like the usual split of other OSes.
Nice!
And yet another question, please. Does Haiku have functions similar toLinux functionsmodify_ldt / set_thread_area / arch_prctl, which sets base for FS/GS registers?No. We do have TLS support though. What are you trying to do ? Porting some VM stuff ?Tell us what you need it for, we'll tell you why you don't need it :pFrançois.
Porting WINE =)Wine use this funcs on init new threads to set FS/GS base to addr of TEB struct (thread environment block)
