From 133890103b9de08904f909995973e4b5c08a780e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davide Libenzi Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2009 11:41:11 -0700 Subject: eventfd: revised interface and cleanups Change the eventfd interface to de-couple the eventfd memory context, from the file pointer instance. Without such change, there is no clean way to racely free handle the POLLHUP event sent when the last instance of the file* goes away. Also, now the internal eventfd APIs are using the eventfd context instead of the file*. This patch is required by KVM's IRQfd code, which is still under development.
