[stgt] [PATCH 2/3] Remove startup_lock

Andy Grover agrover at redhat.com
Tue Apr 29 03:51:21 CEST 2014


The purpose of the startup lock was to hold threads at the startup_lock
so if a thread creation fails, it's still possible to have them
end themselves by looking at info->stop. Since we are back to using
pthread_cancel instead of info->stop, we don't need this any more.
The only wrinkle is we need to only send pthread_cancels to
successfully-created threads, so now check this in the destroy_threads
reverse-loop.
