Hi, I am a beginner to L4, and very interested in it. I think it is great in terms of its minimality and security. However, I have some questions about it, (1) How is its performance compared to other monolithic kernel, say, Linux. Could it make use of multicore, multiprocessor to enjoy the performance scalability?
The performance of Fiasco kernel is not bad, and it should be better than Linux.
Fiasco kernel can support multicore very well, while it has deadlock issue.
Could you elaborate on the deadlock?
