Re: how to implement Thread Local Storage (TLS) in kernel

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I want to "extend" the ETHREAD data structure and keep
some extra information about each running thread. Creating
a TLS scheme is the only way I can think of in kernel...

I think creating a table and using Thread ID to lookup is the
easy part. The hard part is knowing when to remove the entry
when a thread exits. Do you know any (un)documented API that
kernel handles thread exiting evernt?
