"bottom halves" in the sense used are a linux thing.Hugh? I learned the term from a red book with a daemon on the cover. I very much doubt the four authors are writing about linux given the book's title. The figure says "Never scheduled, cannot block. Runs on kernel stack in kernel address space." Is this outdated?
"Runs on kernel stack in kernel space" is not the same thing as the Linux concept of bottom half. :-) That said, I don't know what the figured referred to is, but the text quoted do not say "bottom half" at least...
