Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Enable poll handler in hpilo
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2009 13:57:36 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090810195735.GA29372@ldl.fc.hp.com> (raw)

Add a .poll() in order for applications to wait for a packet without wasting 
system resources by repeatedly reading a mostly empty channel.

Three patches follow: some minor refactoring that shouldn't be functionally 
different, adding an interrupt handler, and finally adding a .poll().

Please CC me on any replies, and thanks,
Dave
