where to find kernel specs

[Arreglador]

hello, i need some information about windows' xp kernel, like what kind of
threads it supports (klt, ult, plt) or other information about processor
scheduling, and so on, but i can't find it anywhere. Where can i get this
kind of info? (the same goes for vista).

thanks!!!

For the most part, that kind of information is available in areas of
interest only to the most serious developers.

You might try starting with googling "charactersistics of XP kernel" or
"threading in XP". Technical documentation related to assember and
compilers may also help you.

However, bear in mind that XP code isn't exactly open-source.
