I think I'll find 'foutir' to be fine for "fout"ing my file ...

The IDE disk accesses on my old P100 machine often cause droputs,
though, so I'm thinking that if this proves to be a problem, I could
hack the code to write everything to a pre-allocated RAM buffer, and
then write to a file after the perf is over.

For control signals, of course I guess I would use foutk, for example,
instead of foutir.

(BTW anyone ever figure out how to tune the disk-flush deamon to result
in minimum amounts of long kernel interruptions?)
 
As far as porting the stuff to the standard version, have you people
been sumbmitting patches for the standard version, and John Fitch
doesn't like them? I can't imagine why these opcodes you mention
shouldn't be in the canonical sources (or the real-time priority for
that matter). John, is there a reason, or is it just that nobody has
taken the time to submit a patch against the canonical sources?
