From: Anton Ivanov <anton.ivanov@cambridgegreys.com>

This adds a set of functions and macros intended to process
hashes in parallel.

The principles of operation are documented in the fasthmap.h

If these one day go into the OVS tree, the OVS tree versions
would be used in preference.

Bleep bloop.  Greetings Anton Ivanov, I am a robot and I have tried out your patch.
Thanks for your contribution.

I encountered some error that I wasn't expecting.  See the details below.


checkpatch:
WARNING: Line is 83 characters long (recommended limit is 79)
#189 FILE: lib/fasthmap.c:148:

Please check this out.  If you feel there has been an error, please email aconole@redhat.com

Thanks,

Hi Anton,

This is not a full review, just something I noticed while trying to run 
this patch set through CI on github (with parallelization enabled).

If pool_size < 3 then ovn_add_worker_pool() returns NULL and ovn-northd 
will crash.

Thanks, I thought I had that working in one of the earlier revisions.

Looks like something was not moved while redoing the patchset.

I need to update it anyway to named semaphores at least for OSX (if not 
for everything), because OSX build fails without that.

I will release a fixed version tomorrow.
