Description Christine Caulfield 2006-12-07 11:13:16 UTC
There is currently only a single dlm_recvd & dlm_sendd thread per machine.
On a busy SMP system this could become a bottleneck.

There should be at least one dlm_recvd thread per CPU in the system I think.

Comment 1 Christine Caulfield 2007-01-08 11:15:39 UTC
A patch (for comments) has been posted to 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/cluster-devel/2007-January/msg00013.html

Comment 2 Christine Caulfield 2007-01-23 15:23:13 UTC
This patch is now in Steve's -nmw tree to get further testing.

Comment 3 Christine Caulfield 2007-02-12 11:58:26 UTC
This patch (with several fixes) in now in Linus' tree. It only affects the TCP
transport. SCTP is more complex and yet to do.

Comment 4 Christine Caulfield 2007-04-12 09:31:30 UTC
I'm closing this because the TCP transport is already multithreaded and the SCTP
transport parts have been amalgamated with it.

Moving all RHCS ver 5 bugs to RHEL 5 so we can remove RHCS v5 which never existed.
