[M3commit] [M3devel] CVS Update: cm3

[Daniel Alejandro Benavides D.]

Hi again:
I recall to have said about a virtualization infrastructure future framework for CM3 reusing existing work made by DEC and SPIN, if we manage to get the system running as a separate process in a given processor we will be definitely getting source code level compability between UNIX implementations by means of a huge historical system like DEC UNIX and a good balance on terms of security in the Modula-3 runtime protection of foreign code. 
If there is no case of having user level DEC Unix server running in a host processor we can still emulate like they did and/or have a M3 Unix server inside the kernel like they planed to do.
In perspective SPINE (spin development) developed a embedded system in NT kernel without touching host system processor but the actual network interface card internal processor featuring several M3 applications running on it.
This would be a potential place for higher optimization in the CM3 system as we wouldn't have the usual architecture M3 guest-per system but a M3 host per system given the opportunities for it

Hope this helps in something, thanks in advance
