Or more generally how does the LINUX kernel, lower and raise the = interrupt level it is currently working on? How does it apply to NFS ?

Hey,
        = How does nfs=20 maintain the isolation between multiple threads.That is when one nfs = thread is=20 running how does it avoid other nfs threads from running. This is = achieved in=20 BSD using the splxxx() functions. But in LINUX i do not see any similare = function which handles this.
        Or more=20 generally how does the LINUX kernel, lower and raise the interrupt level = it is=20 currently working on? How does it apply to NFS ?
 
Waiting for reply,
 
rgds,
