Subject: perf: Fix SIGIO handling
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f506b3dc0ec454a16d40cab9ee5d75435b39dc50;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

perf: Fix SIGIO handling

Vince noticed that unless we mmap() a buffer, SIGIO gets lost. So
explicitly push the wakeup (including signals) when requested.
