[vhostmd PATCH 3/3] Add a timeout to the metrics request and fix the timeout value.

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

 



A timeout in the send request part of dump_virtio_metrics()
should prevent the send from looping forever.
The timeout value is fixed to a reasonable value of 5 seconds.
