MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT Content-Disposition: inline Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 459 Lines: 14 I am trying to implement a mechanism similar to rpc. So I might want to know whether rpc_call return only after it receive response from the server. If so, how does it achieve asynchronous operation?
