[RFC PATCH v5 2/4] Migration thread mutex

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

 



ramlist mutex is implemented to protect the RAMBlock list traversal in the
migration thread from their addition/removal from the iothread.

Note: Combination of iothread mutex and migration thread mutex works as a
rw-lock. Both mutexes are acquired while modifying the ram_list members or RAM
block list.
