2014-08-15docs/multiple-iothreads.txt: add documentation on IOThread programmingStefan Hajnoczi
This document explains how IOThreads and the main loop are related, especially how to write code that can run in an IOThread. Currently only virtio-blk-data-plane uses these techniques. The next obvious target is virtio-scsi; there has also been work on virtio-net. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
