From 71973b046120a13df4eaa9143bed5ba8a67abc7f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Hajnoczi Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2012 15:23:00 +0100 Subject: dataplane: add event loop Outside the safety of the global mutex we need to poll on file descriptors. I found epoll(2) is a convenient way to do that, although other options could replace this module in the future (such as an AioContext-based loop or glib's GMainLoop). One important feature of this small event loop implementation is that the loop can be terminated in a thread-safe way. This allows QEMU to stop the data plane thread cleanly.
