container_stabilise_request

This is a request to stabilise a container.

Signature

Status container_stabilise_request(
	Token		cont,
	StateInterval	state_interval )

Arguments

cont - - indicates the container to be stabilised
state_interval - indicates the state_interval to be stabilised.

Semantics

This is a manager interface function. It is used by the kernel to force a checkpoint to be made stable. The manager is obliged to stabilise the container when it receives this call. The kernel only makes the request of state intervals which have already been checkpointed using the container_snapshot call.

Status

Notes

Some facility should be provided to allow this function to operate on state intervals that have been created by a logging manager. This is not currently supported.
