[ros-dev] /nt Removal Patch

[Alex Ionescu]

Hi,

Most of the developers I've talked to (including myself) want to get rid 
of the /nt directory, since it is architecturally incorrect and should 
instead be migrated into other parts of the kernel. Since the nt 
functions that were in the directory were part of the Executive (note 
the ExXXXObjectType), I've placed the functions in \ex, and renamed all 
Ntp stuff by Exp, with the exception of some LPC stuff which I've 
renamed from Ni to Lpcp. profiles were harder, since both the Executive 
and Kernel parts were in the nt file (actually we're not implementing 
the Executive part properly imo, we don't even have EPROFILE, but that's 
another story). Anyways, attached is the patch so you can see what was 
changed and where it was displaced. I don't think anyone wants to keep 
the /nt directory, based on previous discussions, but I want to make 
sure people will be aware of it.

Best regards,
Alex Ionescu
