2008-10-08Fix IO performance regression in sparcaliguori1-28/+0
Replace signalfd with signal handler/pipe. There is no way to interrupt the CPU execution loop when a file descriptor becomes readable. This results in a large performance regression in sparc emulation during bootup. This patch switches us to signal handler/pipe which was originally suggested by Ian Jackson. The signal handler lets us interrupt the CPU emulation loop while the write to a pipe lets us avoid the select/signal race condition.

2008-09-11Fix the build on non-Linux systemsaliguori1-5/+1
It turns out, we're never reading from the signalfd() which is causing it to remain readable forever. I'll fix this up but I thought I'd commit this fix in the interim.
