[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Fast Thread-Local Storage support

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

These patches by Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> add thread-local storage
support for POSIX and Windows platforms.  Fast native TLS mechanisms are used
when available and pthread_get/setspecific() is used as a fallback.

My dataplane block layer RFC work relies on this and it has been discussed
separately by Ed and Peter, so I wanted to share my latest edited version of
these patches.

The only change I made is to prepend "tls_" to the function names.

Paolo: Posting so you can take this back into your tree if you wish.
