Hi,
This is the v12 of the refactored patch-series to have a generic
asynchronous task offloading framework (called threadlets)
within qemu.
I have run KVM autotest suite with this patch. This test suite
ran successfully for the following tests:
-connecthon
-ebizzy
-dbench
-fsstress
-disktest
-cpu_hotplug
-hackbench
-sleeptest
Changelog:
* Refactored the code in the following manner as asked by Anthony:
* Earlier Patch1 has been broken down into 4 patches:
1) Make the necessary confiugation and Makefile changes.
2) Move paio_cancel to new infrastructure and introduce
only those APIs needed for this.
3) Move paio_submit to new infrastructure and introduce
only those APIs needed for this.
4) Clean up posix-aio.compat.c off all the old code.
The following series implements...
