Semaphores & Message queues

[pepito]

Hello:

I am using "semaphores" as mutual exclusion method into my OS, and it seems to works fine.

Some time ago I wrote too some "message" rutines that I have never used.  

Is advisable to retain these "message" rutines, or drop it?

Thank you,

pepito

Pepito,

There is no reason to reinvent the wheel all the time if you have something that works between user and kernel space keep it that is if its stable you can always work out performance later. I know from personal experience especially when your os is in early stages and you have lots of chicken egg scenarios stability is more important then performance.
