    qemu_capabilities: Rework domain caps cache · c7600931
    Michal Privoznik 提交于
    Since v5.6.0-48-g270583ed we try to cache domain capabilities,
    i.e. store filled virDomainCaps in a hash table in virQEMUCaps
    for future use. However, there's a race condition in the way it's
    implemented. We use virQEMUCapsGetDomainCapsCache() to obtain the
    pointer to the hash table, then we search the hash table for
    cached data and if none is found the domcaps is constructed and
    put into the table. Problem is that this is all done without any
    locking, so if there are two threads trying to do the same, one
    will succeed and the other will fail inserting the data into the
    table.
    
    Also, the API looks a bit fishy - obtaining pointer to the hash
    table is dangerous.
    
    The solution is to use a mutex that guards the whole operation
    with the hash table. Then, the API can be changes to return
    virDomainCapsPtr directly.
