From: David van Moolenbroek Date: Tue, 25 Feb 2014 13:24:52 +0000 (+0100) Subject: Rearrange endpoint number layout X-Git-Tag: v3.3.0~414 X-Git-Url: http://zhaoyanbai.com/repos/%22http:/www.isc.org/icons/man.rndc-confgen.html?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e7974541d02e3603d59bd82caebea23eb97bd6b4;p=minix.git Rearrange endpoint number layout The constants ANY, NONE, and SELF are now a function of the way the endpoint number is split between a generation number and a process slot number, rather than the other way around. This allows for the use of bit masking and shifting instead of the previous (and more expensive) multiplication and division.
