From 5e3bc735d93dd23f074b5116fd11e1ad8cd4962f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fabien Chouteau Date: Tue, 8 Jan 2013 16:30:56 +0100 Subject: Check return values from g_poll and select The current implementation of os_host_main_loop_wait() on Windows, returns 1 only when a g_poll() event occurs because the return value of select() is overridden. This is wrong as we may skip a socket event, as shown in this example: 1. select() returns 0 2. g_poll() returns 1 (socket event occurs) 3. os_host_main_loop_wait() returns 1 4. qemu_iohandler_poll() sees no socket event because select() has return before the event occurs 5. select() returns 1 6. g_poll() returns 0 (g_poll overrides select's return value) 7. os_host_main_loop_wait() returns 0 8. qemu_iohandler_poll() doesn't check for socket events because the return value of os_host_main_loop_wait() is zero. 9. goto 5 This patch use one variable for each of these return values, so we don't miss a select() event anymore. Also move the call to select() after g_poll(), this will improve latency as we don't have to go through two os_host_main_loop_wait() calls to detect a socket event.
