[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/12] Threadlet Infrastructure

[Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Hi,

This patch series introduces threadlet framework
in qemu.

Changelog:

* Modified the dequeue_work function logic which was
  earlier wrong. It now returns 0 on success and 1 on
  failure.

* removed the locking for container_of which is not 
  needed in handle_work()

* changed qemu-threadlets.[c|h] to qemu-threadlet.[c|h]

* introduced signal handler APIs in qemu-threadlet.c
  directly instead of in posix-aio-compat.c

Testing:

* I have tested this series using fsstress.
  Detailed testing information has been mentioned in the
  previous iteration.

The following series implements...
