2014-05-28aio: Fix use-after-free in cancellation pathFam Zheng1-1/+1
The current flow of canceling a thread from THREAD_ACTIVE state is: 1) Caller wants to cancel a request, so it calls thread_pool_cancel. 2) thread_pool_cancel waits on the conditional variable elem->check_cancel. 3) The worker thread changes state to THREAD_DONE once the task is done, and notifies elem->check_cancel to allow thread_pool_cancel to continue execution, and signals the notifier (pool->notifier) to allow callback function to be called later. But because of the global mutex, the notifier won't get processed until step 4) and 5) are done. 4) thread_pool_cancel continues, leaving the notifier signaled, it just returns to caller. 5) Caller thinks the request is already canceled successfully, so it releases any related data, such as freeing elem->common.opaque. 6) In the next main loop iteration, the notifier handler, event_notifier_ready, is called. It finds the canceled thread in THREAD_DONE state, so calls elem->common.cb, with an (likely) dangling opaque pointer. This is a use-after-free. Fix it by calling event_notifier_ready before leaving thread_pool_cancel. Test case update: This change will let cancel complete earlier than test-thread-pool.c expects, so update the code to check this case: if it's already done, done_cb sets .aiocb to NULL, skip calling bdrv_aio_cancel on them.

2013-08-22aio / timers: Add QEMUTimerListGroup to AioContextAlex Bligh1-0/+3
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>
2013-08-19tests: adjust test-thread-pool to new aio_poll() semanticsStefan Hajnoczi1-12/+12
aio_poll(ctx, true) will soon block when fd handlers have been set. Previously aio_poll() would return early if all .io_flush() returned false. This means we need to check the equivalent of the .io_flush() condition *before* calling aio_poll(ctx, true) to avoid deadlock.

We're already using them in several places, but __sync builtins are just too ugly to type, and do not provide seqcst load/store operations. Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2013-03-15threadpool: drop global thread poolStefan Hajnoczi1-23/+21
Now that each AioContext has a ThreadPool and the main loop AioContext can be fetched with bdrv_get_aio_context(), we can eliminate the concept of a global thread pool from thread-pool.c. The submit functions must take a ThreadPool* argument. block/raw-posix.c and block/raw-win32.c use aio_get_thread_pool(bdrv_get_aio_context(bs)) to fetch the main loop's ThreadPool. tests/test-thread-pool.c must be updated to reflect the new thread_pool_submit() function prototypes.

2012-12-11tests: avoid qemu_aio_flush() in test-thread-pool.cStefan Hajnoczi1-6/+14
We need to eliminate calls to qemu_aio_flush() since the function is being removed. Most callers will use bdrv_drain_all() instead but test-thread-pool.c is lower level. Since the test uses the global AioContext we can loop on qemu_aio_wait() to wait for aio and bh activity to complete.

2012-11-27tests: make threadpool cancellation test looserPaolo Bonzini1-2/+5
The cancellation test is failing on the buildbots. While the failure merits a little more investigation to understand what is going on, the logs show that the failure is not impacting the coverage provided by the test. Hence, loosen a bit the assertions in a way that should let the test proceed and hopefully pass.
