[KVM PATCH 2/3] eventfd: add a notifier mechanism

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This allows synchronous notifications to register with the eventfd
infrastructure.  Unlike traditional vfs based eventfd readers, notifiees
do not implictly clear the counter on reception.  However, the clearing
is primarily important to allowing threads to block waiting for events
anyway, so its an acceptable trade-off since blocking doesn't apply to
notifiers.
