2016-11-14block/curl: Drop TFTP "support"Max Reitz1-1/+1
Because TFTP does not support byte ranges, it was never usable with our curl block driver. Since apparently nobody has ever complained loudly enough for someone to take care of the issue until now, it seems reasonable to assume that nobody has ever actually used it. Therefore, it should be safe to just drop it from curl's protocol list. [Jeff Cody: Below is additional summary pulled, with some rewording, from followup emails between Max and Markus, to explain what worked and what didn't] TFTP would sometimes work, to a limited extent, for images <= the curl "readahead" size, so long as reads started at offset zero. By default, that readahead size is 256KB. Reads starting at a non-zero offset would also have returned data from a zero offset. It can become more complicated still, with mixed reads at zero offset and non-zero offsets, due to data buffering. In short, TFTP could only have worked before in very specific scenarios with unrealistic expectations and constraints.

We leave users to choose whatever heartbeat solution they want, if the heartbeat is lost, or other errors they detect, they can use experimental command 'x_colo_lost_heartbeat' to tell COLO to do failover, COLO will do operations accordingly. For example, if the command is sent to the Primary side, the Primary side will exit COLO mode, does cleanup work, and then, PVM will take over the service work. If sent to the Secondary side, the Secondary side will run failover work, then takes over PVM's service work.

2016-10-07block: Add qdev ID to DEVICE_TRAY_MOVEDKevin Wolf2-1/+8
The event currently only contains the BlockBackend name. However, with anonymous BlockBackends, this is always the empty string. Add the qdev ID (or if none was given, the QOM path) so that the user can still see which device caused the event. Event generation has to be moved from bdrv_eject() to the BlockBackend because the BDS doesn't know the attached device, but that's easy because blk_eject() is the only user of it.

2016-09-27cpus-common: lock-free fast path for cpu_exec_start/endPaolo Bonzini1-3/+50
Set cpu->running without taking the cpu_list lock, only requiring it if there is a concurrent exclusive section. This requires adding a new field to CPUState, which records whether a running CPU is being counted in pending_cpus. When an exclusive section is started concurrently with cpu_exec_start, cpu_exec_start can use the new field to determine if it has to wait for the end of the exclusive section. Likewise, cpu_exec_end can use it to see if start_exclusive is waiting for that CPU. This a separate patch for easier bisection of issues. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2016-09-27cpus-common: simplify locking for start_exclusive/end_exclusivePaolo Bonzini1-1/+3
It is not necessary to hold qemu_cpu_list_mutex throughout the exclusive section, because no other exclusive section can run while pending_cpus != 0. exclusive_idle() is called in cpu_exec_start(), and that prevents any CPUs created after start_exclusive() from entering cpu_exec() during an exclusive section.

2016-09-27cpus-common: remove redundant call to exclusive_idle()Paolo Bonzini1-1/+0
No need to call exclusive_idle() from cpu_exec_end since it is done immediately afterwards in cpu_exec_start. Any exclusive section could run as soon as cpu_exec_end leaves, because cpu->running is false and the mutex is not taken, so the call does not add any protection either.
