xen: events: Process event channels notifications in round-robin order.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Avoids fairness issue resulting from domain 0 processing lowest
numbered event channel first.

Fixes bug #1115 "Event channel port scanning unfair".

Bugzilla: http://bugzilla.xensource.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1115
Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com>
[ijc: forward ported from linux-2.6.18-xen.hg 324:7fe1c6d02a2b
 various variables have different names in this tree:
  l1  -> pending_words
  l2  -> pending_bits
  l1i -> word_idx
  l2i -> bit_idx]
