I've just been reading an interesting LWN article about a mutex design that allows random locking order of multiple mutexes without danger of deadlocks. This might be a useful approach for the multi-channel additions. http://lwn.net/Articles/548909/ More details at the link in the first Conclusions paragraph. - Andrew -- Sent from my iPad
