Subject: [PATCH v4 06/11] qemu-thread: Use futex for QemuEvent on Windows
Date: Mon, 26 May 2025 14:29:16 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250526-event-v4-6-5b784cc8e1de@daynix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250526-event-v4-0-5b784cc8e1de@daynix.com>
Use the futex-based implementation of QemuEvent on Windows to
remove code duplication and remove the overhead of event object
construction and destruction.
