[RFC PATCH 8/8] fork/vhost_task: remove no_files

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

 



The vhost_task can now support the worker being freed from under the
device when we get a SIGKILL or the process exits without closing
devices. We no longer need no_files so this removes it.
