[Qemu-devel] using pthread in qemu

[Clemens Kolbitsch]

hi!
i know... i have been told not to use them, but i just HAVE TO for the 
moment :-(

i need to run a second thread inside my hardware module which is not a problem 
as long as i don't use the qcow2 image format. when i switch to qcow2, qemu's 
main thread hangs because the second thread is waiting for a semaphore...

does anyone know how to tell the second pthread not to block the primary 
thread??

as always --- any help is greatly appreciated!!
