New Query

Information
has glosseng: Kernel preemption is a method used mainly in monolithic and hybrid kernels where all or most device drivers are run in kernel space, whereby the scheduler is permitted to forcibly perform a context switch (ie, preemptively schedule) on a driver or other part of the kernel during its execution, rather than co-operatively wait for the driver or kernel function (such as a system call) to complete its execution and return control of the processor to the scheduler.
