Two years back, I wrote an article explaining how simultaneous multithreading (AKA hyperthreading) works. It enables a single processor core to run 2 threads simultaneously by interleaving their instructions without doing a context switch.
The article breaks down the CPU microarchitecture details that make this possible. The interesting part is that if you read it, you also get a solid overview of how processors execute instructions.

It's because of the design idea underlying Emacs - possibly the single most comprehensive execution of the "alternating hard and soft layers" pattern.

fork is an interesting system call. It gives an illusion of returning 2 return values to the user space, one to the parent and the other to the child. But does it really return 2 values, and how does it manage to do that? I explain in my article along along with explanation of its internals in Linux.
