[PATCH 5/9] FIX: Continue reshape in the background

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

 



For external metadada, reshape will be continued in the background.
Reshape_array() makes fork itself, but for container operation support
we need a place to wait for reshape begin when current array reshape
time comes /reshapes has to be run in sequence/.
In such case Grow_continue() is responsible for unfreezing array
after return from reshape_array() function.
