2016-09-13iothread: Stop threads before main() quitsFam Zheng
Right after main_loop ends, we release various things but keep iothread alive. The latter is not prepared to the sudden change of resources. Specifically, after bdrv_close_all(), virtio-scsi dataplane get a surprise at the empty BlockBackend: (gdb) bt at /usr/src/debug/qemu-2.6.0/hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c:543 at /usr/src/debug/qemu-2.6.0/hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c:577 It is because the d->conf.blk->root is set to NULL, then blk_get_aio_context() returns qemu_aio_context, whereas s->ctx is still pointing to the iothread: hw/scsi/virtio-scsi.c:543: if (s->dataplane_started) { assert(blk_get_aio_context(d->conf.blk) == s->ctx); } To fix this, let's stop iothreads before doing bdrv_close_all().

2014-03-13iothread: add I/O thread objectStefan Hajnoczi
This is a stand-in for Michael Roth's QContext. I expect this to be replaced once QContext is completed. The IOThread object is an AioContext event loop thread. This patch adds the concept of multiple event loop threads, allowing users to define them. When SMP guests run on SMP hosts it makes sense to instantiate multiple IOThreads. This spreads event loop processing across multiple cores. Note that additional patches are required to actually bind a device to an IOThread. [Andreas Färber <afaerber@suse.de> pointed out that the embedded parent object instance should be called "parent_obj" and have a newline afterwards. This patch has been changed to reflect this. -- Stefan] Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
