2013-05-17 Thread Stefan Hajnoczi
There is ongoing work to enable multiple event loop threads. This will allow QEMU itself to take advantage of SMP and reduce Big QEMU Lock (BQL) contention. This series is one step in that effort. These patches make coroutines safe in a multi-event loop/multi-threaded world. I have successfully t
