2015-10-20coroutine: move into libqemuutil.a libraryDaniel P. Berrange
The coroutine files are currently referenced by the block-obj-y variable. The coroutine functionality though is already used by more than just the block code. eg migration code uses coroutine yield. In the future the I/O channel code will also use the coroutine yield functionality. Since the coroutine code is nicely self-contained it can be easily built as part of the libqemuutil.a library, making it widely available. The headers are also moved into include/qemu, instead of the include/block directory, since they are now part of the util codebase, and the impl was never in the block/ directory either.

2015-03-09coroutine: Clean up qemu_coroutine_enter()Kevin Wolf
qemu_coroutine_enter() is now the only user of coroutine_swap(). Both functions are short, so inline it. Also, using COROUTINE_YIELD is now even more confusing because this code is never called during qemu_coroutine_yield() any more. In fact, this value is never read back, so we can just introduce a new COROUTINE_ENTER which documents the purpose of the task switch better.

2013-05-24coroutine: stop using AioContext in CoQueueStefan Hajnoczi
qemu_co_queue_next(&queue) arranges that the next queued coroutine is run at a later point in time. This deferred restart is useful because the caller may not want to transfer control yet. This behavior was implemented using QEMUBH in the past, which meant that CoQueue (and hence CoMutex and CoRwlock) had a dependency on the AioContext event loop. This hidden dependency causes trouble when we move to a world with multiple event loops - now qemu_co_queue_next() needs to know which event loop to schedule the QEMUBH in. After pondering how to stash AioContext I realized the best solution is to not use AioContext at all. This patch implements the deferred restart behavior purely in terms of coroutines and no longer uses QEMUBH. Here is how it works: Each Coroutine has a wakeup queue that starts out empty. When qemu_co_queue_next() is called, the next coroutine is added to our wakeup queue. The wakeup queue is processed when we yield or terminate. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
