      coroutine: use AioContext for CoQueue BH · 28f08246
      由 Stefan Hajnoczi 提交于 
      CoQueue uses a BH to awake coroutines that were made ready to run again
using qemu_co_queue_next() or qemu_co_queue_restart_all().  The BH
currently runs in the iothread AioContext and would break coroutines
that run in a different AioContext.

This is a slightly tricky problem because the lifetime of the BH exceeds
that of the CoQueue.  This means coroutines can be awoken after CoQueue
itself has been freed.  Also, there is no qemu_co_queue_destroy()
function which we could use to handle freeing resources.

Introducing qemu_co_queue_destroy() has a ripple effect of requiring us
to also add qemu_co_mutex_destroy() and qemu_co_rwlock_destroy(), as
well as updating all callers.  Avoid doing that.

We also cannot switch from BH to GIdle function because aio_poll() does
not dispatch GIdle functions.  (GIdle functions make memory management
slightly easier because they free themselves.)

Finally, I don't want to move unlock_queue and unlock_bh into
AioContext.  That would break encapsulation - AioContext isn't supposed
to know about CoQueue.

This patch implements a different solution: each qemu_co_queue_next() or
qemu_co_queue_restart_all() call creates a new BH and list of coroutines
to wake up.  Callers tend to invoke qemu_co_queue_next() and
qemu_co_queue_restart_all() occasionally after blocking I/O, so creating
a new BH for each call shouldn't be massively inefficient.

Note that this patch does not add an interface for specifying the
AioContext.  That is left to future patches which will convert CoQueue,
CoMutex, and CoRwlock to expose AioContext.

      coroutine: introduce coroutines · 00dccaf1
      由 Kevin Wolf 提交于 
      Asynchronous code is becoming very complex.  At the same time
synchronous code is growing because it is convenient to write.
Sometimes duplicate code paths are even added, one synchronous and the
other asynchronous.  This patch introduces coroutines which allow code
that looks synchronous but is asynchronous under the covers.

A coroutine has its own stack and is therefore able to preserve state
across blocking operations, which traditionally require callback
functions and manual marshalling of parameters.

Creating and starting a coroutine is easy:

  coroutine = qemu_coroutine_create(my_coroutine);
  qemu_coroutine_enter(coroutine, my_data);

The coroutine then executes until it returns or yields:

  void coroutine_fn my_coroutine(void *opaque) {
      MyData *my_data = opaque;

      /* do some work */

      qemu_coroutine_yield();

      /* do some more work */
  }

Yielding switches control back to the caller of qemu_coroutine_enter().
This is typically used to switch back to the main thread's event loop
after issuing an asynchronous I/O request.  The request callback will
then invoke qemu_coroutine_enter() once more to switch back to the
coroutine.

Note that if coroutines are used only from threads which hold the global
mutex they will never execute concurrently.  This makes programming with
coroutines easier than with threads.  Race conditions cannot occur since
only one coroutine may be active at any time.  Other coroutines can only
run across yield.

This coroutines implementation is based on the gtk-vnc implementation
written by Anthony Liguori <anthony@codemonkey.ws> but it has been
significantly rewritten by Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com> to use
setjmp()/longjmp() instead of the more expensive swapcontext() and by
Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> for Windows Fibers support.
