* docs/multiple-iothreads.txt: add documentation on IOThread programmingStefan Hajnoczi2014-08-151-0/+134
This document explains how IOThreads and the main loop are related, especially how to write code that can run in an IOThread. Currently only virtio-blk-data-plane uses these techniques. The next obvious target is virtio-scsi; there has also been work on virtio-net. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
