Support monotonic time for pthread_cond_timedwait

2015-01-21T19:29:12+00:00

This is to avoid that the pthread_cond_timedwait() is not affected by time
adjustment which could make the waiting period very long or very short which
is not what we want in any cases.

Update workqueue implementation to use a single queue for the work

2015-01-15T16:05:22+00:00

Previously I used one queue per worker; now I use one queue for
everyone.  The "broadcast" code is gone, replaced with an idempotent
'update' operation.

Incorporate some comments based on notes from dgoulet

Avoid chan/circ linear lookups for requests

2015-01-14T16:31:12+00:00

The solution I took is to not free a circuit with a pending
uncancellable work item, but rather to set its magic number to a
sentinel value.  When we get a work item, we check whether the circuit
has that magic sentinel, and if so, we free it rather than processing
the reply.

Remove if (1) indentation in cpuworker.c

2015-01-14T16:28:26+00:00

To avoid having diffs turn out too big, I had replaced some unneeded
ifs and fors with if (1), so that the indentation would still work out
right.  Now I might as well clean those up.

Refactor cpuworker to use workqueue/threadpool code.
