[Cluster-devel] [PATCH] RFC: Use workqueues for dlm lowcomms

[Patrick Caulfield]

Steve: Please do /not/ commit this patch.


The attached patch converts the dlm_sendd & dlm_recvd daemons to work queues. This removes a lot of duplicated code and allows the
receive thread to run on multiple processors on SMP systems (as per bz#218756).

It's currently only applicable to the TCP lowcomms. I'll do the SCTP one when (if?) we are happy with this one

[Cluster-devel] [PATCH] RFC: Use workqueues for dlm lowcomms

[Patrick Caulfield]

This patch converts the DLM TCP lowcomms to use workqueues rather than using its
own daemon functions. Simultaneously removing a lot of code and making it more
scalable on multi-processor machines.
