Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Core :: IPC, defect, P1)

Description

[Jim Mathies [:jimm]]

Land just some basics, pref'd off so we can start working on this.

todo:

- gecko thread creation and registration
- simple test protocols
- thread check helpers

Hmm, unfortunately I just realized this can't be tied to a pref since we need to know about the switch before gecko is initialized.

IPC Patch v2

This doesn't compile. Also the previous comment was incorrect; the patch applies cleanly on top of updated versions of the patches listed that I haven't posted yet.

Will fix compilation issues and re-submit.
