2015-11-11throttle: Check for pending requests in throttle_group_unregister_bs()Alberto Garcia
throttle_group_unregister_bs() removes a BlockDriverState from its throttling group and destroys the timers. This means that there must be no pending throttled requests at that point (because it would be impossible to complete them), so the caller has to drain them first. At the moment throttle_group_unregister_bs() is only called from bdrv_io_limits_disable(), which already takes care of draining the requests, so there's nothing to worry about, but this patch makes this invariant explicit in the documentation and adds the relevant assertions.

2015-10-23throttle: Remove throttle_group_lock/unlock()Alberto Garcia
The group throttling code was always meant to handle its locking internally. However, bdrv_swap() was touching the ThrottleGroup structure directly and therefore needed an API for that. Now that bdrv_swap() no longer exists there's no need for the throttle_group_lock() API anymore. Signed-off-by: Alberto Garcia <berto@igalia.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2015-10-23block/throttle-groups: Make incref/decref publicMax Reitz
Throttle groups are not necessarily referenced by BDSs alone; a later patch will essentially allow BBs to reference them, too. Make the ref/unref functions public so that reference can be properly accounted for. Their interface is slightly adjusted in that they return and take a ThrottleState pointer, respectively, instead of a ThrottleGroup pointer. Functionally, they are equivalent, but since ThrottleGroup is not meant to be used outside of block/throttle-groups.c, ThrottleState is easier to handle.

2015-06-23throttle: Check current timers before updating any_timer_armed[]Alberto Garcia
Calling throttle_group_config() cancels all timers from a particular BlockDriverState, so any_timer_armed[] should be updated accordingly. However, with the current code it may happen that a timer is armed in a different BlockDriverState from the same group, so any_timer_armed[] would be set to false in a situation where there is still a timer armed. The consequence is that we might end up with two timers armed. This should not have any noticeable impact however, since all accesses to the ThrottleGroup are protected by a lock, and the situation would become normal again shortly thereafter as soon as all timers have been fired. The correct way to solve this is to check that we're actually cancelling a timer before updating any_timer_armed[].

2015-06-12throttle: acquire the ThrottleGroup lock in bdrv_swap()Alberto Garcia
bdrv_swap() touches the fields of a BlockDriverState that are protected by the ThrottleGroup lock. Although those fields end up in their original place, they are temporarily swapped in the process, so there's a chance that an operation on a member of the same group happening on a different thread can try to use them.

2015-06-12throttle: Add throttle group supportAlberto Garcia
The throttle group support use a cooperative round robin scheduling algorithm. The principles of the algorithm are simple: - Each BDS of the group is used as a token in a circular way. - The active BDS computes if a wait must be done and arms the right timer. - If a wait must be done the token timer will be armed so the token will become the next active BDS.
