Subject: [PATCH] Switch to poll in xenconsoled's io loop.
Date: Thu, 3 Jan 2013 17:14:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1357233257-13918-1-git-send-email-wei.liu2@citrix.com> (raw)

The original implementation utilies select(). In Linux select() typically
supports up to 1024 file descriptors. This can be a problem when user tries to
boot up many guests. Switching to poll() has minimum impact on existing code
and has better scalibility.

Up to 8192 file descriptors are supported in the current implementation.
