Subject: [PATCH 20/28] Drivers: hv: Get rid of the unused global signaling state
Date: Sat,  1 Dec 2012 06:46:51 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1354373219-31374-20-git-send-email-kys@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1354373219-31374-1-git-send-email-kys@microsoft.com>

Now that we have implemented a per-connection signaling mechanism, get rid
of the global signaling state. For hosts that don't support per-connection
signaling handle, we have moved the global state to be a per-channel state.
