The ctx->first_bh list contains all created BHs, including those that
are not scheduled. The list is iterated by the event loop and therefore
has O(n) time complexity with respected to the number of created BHs.
Rewrite BHs so that only scheduled or deleted BHs are enqueued.
Only BHs that actually require action will be iterated.
One semantic change is required: qemu_bh_delete() enqueues the BH and
therefore invokes aio_notify(). The
tests/test-aio.c:test_source_bh_delete_from_cb() test case assumed that
g_main_context_iteration(NULL, false) returns false after
qemu_bh_delete() but it now returns true for one iteration. Fix up the
test case.
This patch makes aio_compute_timeout() and aio_bh_poll() drop from a CPU
profile reported by perf-top(1). Previously they combined to 9% CPU
utilization when AioContext polling is commented out and the guest has 2
virtio-blk,num-queues=1 and 99 virtio-blk,num-queues=32 devices.

Commit 05e514b1d4d5bd4209e2c8bbc76ff05c85a235f3 introduced an AIO
context optimization to avoid calling event_notifier_test_and_clear() on
ctx->notifier. On Windows, the same notifier is being used to wakeup the
wait on socket events (see commit
d3385eb448e38f828c78f8f68ec5d79c66a58b5d).
The ctx->notifier event is added to the gpoll sources in
aio_set_event_notifier(), aio_ctx_check() should clear the event
regardless of ctx->notified, since Windows sets the event by itself,
bypassing the aio->notified. This fixes qemu not clearing the event
resulting in a busy loop.
Paolo suggested to me on irc to call event_notifier_test_and_clear()
after select() >0 from aio-win32.c's aio_prepare. Unfortunately, not all
fds associated with ctx->notifiers are in AIO fd handlers set.
(qemu_set_nonblock() in util/oslib-win32.c calls qemu_fd_register()).
This is essentially a v2 of a patch that was sent earlier:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-01/msg00420.html
that resurfaced when James investigated Spice performance issues on Windows:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/issues/36
In order to test that patch, I simply tried running test-char on
win32, and it hangs. Applying that patch solves it. QIO idle sources
are not dispatched. I haven't investigated much further, I suspect
source priorities and busy looping still come into play.
This version keeps the "notified" field, so event_notifier_poll()
should still work as expected.

The tests/test-bdrv-drain /bdrv-drain/iothread/drain test case does the
following:
1. The preadv coroutine calls aio_bh_schedule_oneshot() and then yields.
2. The one-shot BH executes in another AioContext. All it does is call
aio_co_wakeup(preadv_co).
3. The preadv coroutine is re-entered and returns.
There is a race condition in aio_co_wake() where the preadv coroutine
returns and the test case destroys the preadv IOThread. aio_co_wake()
can still be running in the other AioContext and it performs an access
to the freed IOThread AioContext.
Here is the race in aio_co_schedule():
QSLIST_INSERT_HEAD_ATOMIC(&ctx->scheduled_coroutines,
co, co_scheduled_next);
<-- race: co may execute before we invoke qemu_bh_schedule()!
qemu_bh_schedule(ctx->co_schedule_bh);
So if co causes ctx to be freed then we're in trouble. Fix this problem
by holding a reference to ctx.

AIO Coroutines shouldn't by managed by an AioContext different than the
one assigned when they are created. aio_co_enter avoids entering a
coroutine from a different AioContext, calling aio_co_schedule instead.
Scheduled coroutines are then entered by co_schedule_bh_cb using
qemu_coroutine_enter, which just calls qemu_aio_coroutine_enter with the
current AioContext obtained with qemu_get_current_aio_context.
Eventually, co->ctx will be set to the AioContext passed as an argument
to qemu_aio_coroutine_enter.
This means that, if an IO Thread's AioConext is being processed by the
Main Thread (due to aio_poll being called with a BDS AioContext, as it
happens in AIO_WAIT_WHILE among other places), the AioContext from some
coroutines may be wrongly replaced with the one from the Main Thread.
This is the root cause behind some crashes, mainly triggered by the
drain code at block/io.c. The most common are these abort and failed
assertion:
util/async.c:aio_co_schedule
456 if (scheduled) {
457 fprintf(stderr,
458 "%s: Co-routine was already scheduled in '%s'\n",
459 __func__, scheduled);
460 abort();
461 }
util/qemu-coroutine-lock.c:
286 assert(mutex->holder == self);
But it's also known to cause random errors at different locations, and
even SIGSEGV with broken coroutine backtraces.
By using qemu_aio_coroutine_enter directly in co_schedule_bh_cb, we can
pass the correct AioContext as an argument, making sure co->ctx is not
wrongly altered.

laio_init() can fail for a couple of reasons, which will lead to a NULL
pointer dereference in laio_attach_aio_context().
To solve this, add a aio_setup_linux_aio() function which is called
early in raw_open_common. If this fails, propagate the error up. The
signature of aio_get_linux_aio() was not modified, because it seems
preferable to return the actual errno from the possible failing
initialization calls.
Additionally, when the AioContext changes, we need to associate a
LinuxAioState with the new AioContext. Use the bdrv_attach_aio_context
callback and call the new aio_setup_linux_aio(), which will allocate a
new AioContext if needed, and return errors on failures. If it fails for
any reason, fallback to threaded AIO with an error message, as the
device is already in-use by the guest.
Add an assert that aio_get_linux_aio() cannot return NULL.

The previous patch fixed a race condition, in which there were
coroutines being executing doubly, or after coroutine deletion.
We can detect common scenarios when this happens, and print an error
message and abort before we corrupt memory / data, or segfault.
This patch will abort if an attempt to enter a coroutine is made while
it is currently pending execution, either in a specific AioContext bh,
or pending execution via a timer. It will also abort if a coroutine
is scheduled, before a prior scheduled run has occurred.
We cannot rely on the existing co->caller check for recursive re-entry
to catch this, as the coroutine may run and exit with
COROUTINE_TERMINATE before the scheduled coroutine executes.
(This is the scenario that was occurring and fixed in the previous
patch).
This patch also re-orders the Coroutine struct elements in an attempt to
optimize caching.

Commit b7a745d added a qemu_bh_cancel call to the completion function
as an optimization to prevent it from unnecessarily rescheduling itself.
This completion function is scheduled from worker_thread, after setting
the state of a ThreadPoolElement to THREAD_DONE.
This was considered to be safe, as the completion function restarts the
loop just after the call to qemu_bh_cancel. But, as this loop lacks a HW
memory barrier, the read of req->state may actually happen _before_ the
call, seeing it still as THREAD_QUEUED, and ending the completion
function without having processed a pending TPE linked at pool->head:
worker thread | I/O thread
------------------------------------------------------------------------
| speculatively read req->state
req->state = THREAD_DONE; |
qemu_bh_schedule(p->completion_bh) |
bh->scheduled = 1; |
| qemu_bh_cancel(p->completion_bh)
| bh->scheduled = 0;
| if (req->state == THREAD_DONE)
| // sees THREAD_QUEUED
The source of the misunderstanding was that qemu_bh_cancel is now being
used by the _consumer_ rather than the producer, and therefore now needs
to have acquire semantics just like e.g. aio_bh_poll.
In some situations, if there are no other independent requests in the
same aio context that could eventually trigger the scheduling of the
completion function, the omitted TPE and all operations pending on it
will get stuck forever.
[Added Sergio's updated wording about the HW memory barrier.

The AioContext data structures are now protected by list_lock and/or
they are walked with FOREACH_RCU primitives. There is no need anymore
to acquire the AioContext for the entire duration of aio_dispatch.
Instead, just acquire it before and after invoking the callbacks.
The next step is then to push it further down.

aio_co_wake provides the infrastructure to start a coroutine on a "home"
AioContext. It will be used by CoMutex and CoQueue, so that coroutines
don't jump from one context to another when they go to sleep on a
mutex or waitqueue. However, it can also be used as a more efficient
alternative to one-shot bottom halves, and saves the effort of tracking
which AioContext a coroutine is running on.
aio_co_schedule is the part of aio_co_wake that starts a coroutine
on a remove AioContext, but it is also useful to implement e.g.
bdrv_set_aio_context callbacks.
The implementation of aio_co_schedule is based on a lock-free
multiple-producer, single-consumer queue. The multiple producers use
cmpxchg to add to a LIFO stack. The consumer (a per-AioContext bottom
half) grabs all items added so far, inverts the list to make it FIFO,
and goes through it one item at a time until it's empty. The data
structure was inspired by OSv, which uses it in the very code we'll
"port" to QEMU for the thread-safe CoMutex.
Most of the new code is really tests.

AioContext is fairly self contained, the only dependency is QEMUTimer but
that in turn doesn't need anything else. So move them out of block-obj-y
to avoid introducing a dependency from io/ to block-obj-y.
main-loop and its dependency iohandler also need to be moved, because
later in this series io/ will call iohandler_get_aio_context.
