Troubleshooting Existing AST Code

Asynchronous System Traps (ASTs) are a user-mode facility fundamental to OpenVMS. It is common to find AST usage in existing codebases, e.g., network, realtime. For those used to linux SIGNAL, ASTs are both similar and different. While ASTs are used for similar purposes, the semantics differ significantly. This session will compare ASTs with linux SIGNAL, as well as examine erroneous code that the speaker has seen in his consulting practice.
