2014-03-13aio: add aio_context_acquire() and aio_context_release()Stefan Hajnoczi1-0/+18
It can be useful to run an AioContext from a thread which normally does not "own" the AioContext. For example, request draining can be implemented by acquiring the AioContext and looping aio_poll() until all requests have been completed. The following pattern should work: /* Event loop thread */ while (running) { aio_context_acquire(ctx); aio_poll(ctx, true); aio_context_release(ctx); } /* Another thread */ aio_context_acquire(ctx); bdrv_read(bs, 0x1000, buf, 1); aio_context_release(ctx); This patch implements aio_context_acquire() and aio_context_release(). Note that existing aio_poll() callers do not need to worry about acquiring and releasing - it is only needed when multiple threads will call aio_poll() on the same AioContext.

2013-08-22aio / timers: Add QEMUTimerListGroup to AioContextAlex Bligh1-0/+4
Add a QEMUTimerListGroup each AioContext (meaning a QEMUTimerList associated with each clock is added) and delete it when the AioContext is freed. Signed-off-by: Alex Bligh <alex@alex.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2013-08-22aio / timers: Untangle include filesAlex Bligh1-2/+3
include/qemu/timer.h has no need to include main-loop.h and doing so causes an issue for the next patch. Unfortunately various files assume including timers.h will pull in main-loop.h. Untangle this mess. Signed-off-by: Alex Bligh <alex@alex.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2013-08-19aio: drop io_flush argumentStefan Hajnoczi1-12/+2
The .io_flush() handler no longer exists and has no users. Drop the io_flush argument to aio_set_fd_handler() and related functions. The AioFlushEventNotifierHandler and AioFlushHandler typedefs are no longer used and are dropped too.

2013-07-19QEMUBH: make AioContext's bh re-entrantLiu Ping Fan1-0/+7
BH will be used outside big lock, so introduce lock to protect between the writers, ie, bh's adders and deleter. The lock only affects the writers and bh's callback does not take this extra lock. Note that for the same AioContext, aio_bh_poll() can not run in parallel yet.

2013-03-15aio: add a ThreadPool instance to AioContextStefan Hajnoczi1-0/+6
This patch adds a ThreadPool to AioContext. It's possible that some AioContext instances will never use the ThreadPool, so defer creation until aio_get_thread_pool(). The reason why AioContext should have the ThreadPool is because the ThreadPool is bound to a AioContext instance where the work item's callback function is invoked. It doesn't make sense to keep the ThreadPool pointer anywhere other than AioContext. For example, block/raw-posix.c can get its AioContext's ThreadPool and submit work. Special note about headers: I used struct ThreadPool in aio.h because there is a circular dependency if aio.h includes thread-pool.h.

2013-02-21aio: convert aio_poll() to g_poll(3)Stefan Hajnoczi1-0/+3
AioHandler already has a GPollFD so we can directly use its events/revents. Add the int pollfds_idx field to AioContext so we can map g_poll(3) results back to AioHandlers. Reuse aio_dispatch() to invoke handlers after g_poll(3).

2013-01-17aio: Fix return value of aio_poll()Kevin Wolf1-4/+2
aio_poll() must return true if any work is still pending, even if it didn't make progress, so that bdrv_drain_all() doesn't stop waiting too early. The possibility of stopping early occasionally lead to a failed assertion in bdrv_drain_all(), when some in-flight request was missed and the function didn't really drain all requests. In order to make that change, the return value as specified in the function comment must change for blocking = false; fortunately, the return value of blocking = false callers is only used in test cases, so this change shouldn't cause any trouble.
