Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] iothread improvements for Mac OS X
Date: Thu,  9 Jun 2011 13:10:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1307617825-17149-1-git-send-email-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

These are two old patches that I never submitted because I didn't really
think they were useful except as cleanups.  Recently, however, Alex Graf
mentioned some problems that Mac OS X has with iothread, and they sounded
to me like they were related to these patches.  And quite surprisingly,
both of them were fixing bugs!

Mac OS X still has problems with iothread according to Alex's testing
(Linux times out in libata, and reactos likewise hangs early on I/O),
but at least the patches fix deadlocks and keep a responsive UI.

Paolo Bonzini (2):
  iothread: replace fair_mutex with a condition variable
  qemu-timer: change unix timer to dynticks
