 Hi

   Kindly provide me with some basic insights
  into kernel.

 1) I want to know exact structure of kernel stack
  and process stack in memory. It would be helpful
  if description includes approximate memory addresses
  of kernel stack,process stack, and different regions
  in kernel stack and process stack. What happens
  if there are multiple processes.

 2) What about "current" data structure. Where is it
  located on memory. If I am not wrong it will be
  just below the process stack.

 3)Which variable to use to access (I am in kernel
   code) kernel stack. In "task_struct"
   kernel_stack_page is not defined. Mine is
   "linux 2.4.2 mvista".

  I am not subscribed to this list, kindly send
  me the reply to vraghava_raju@yahoo.com .
