# HG changeset patch # User kfraser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # Date 1182267148 -3600 # Node ID eeeb77195ac20e8e08c57a7248913bedc0d999bf # Parent 865c4ae59be3b0aa7e375b929414244d1e5bdf74 blktap: Add fallback code to blktap for missing poll-on-aio support. blktap requires a xen specific kernel AIO ABI which has been vetoed by upstream in favour of another approach. Rather than include this ABI, Fedora has been carrying a patch which makes tap:aio use a thread to poll for aio events and notify the main thread via a pipe. The upstream approach of allowing io_getevents() poll normal file descriptors via epoll is still progressing: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/1/3/16 but when that does make it upstream, blktap will require significant re-working to use that approach. In the meantime, here's a patch which uses the poll-in-a-thread approach only if AIO poll support isn't available. It also hides the details behind a simple abstraction and makes both tap:aio and tap:qcow use it.
