From 5f8b6491f20732e0a31e64bbf75b62def579e044 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Hajnoczi Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2011 12:23:42 +0000 Subject: block: wait_for_overlapping_requests() deadlock detection Debugging a reentrant request deadlock was fun but in the future we need a quick and obvious way of detecting such bugs. Add an assert that checks we are not about to deadlock when waiting for another request.
