The thread pool regulates itself: when idle, it kills threads until
empty, when in demand, it creates new threads until full. This behaviour
doesn't play well with latency sensitive workloads where the price of
creating a new thread is too high. For example, when paired with qemu's
'-mlock', or using safety features like SafeStack, creating a new thread
has been measured take multiple milliseconds.
In order to mitigate this let's introduce a new 'EventLoopBase'
property to set the thread pool size. The threads will be created during
the pool's initialization or upon updating the property's value, remain
available during its lifetime regardless of demand, and destroyed upon
freeing it. A properly characterized workload will then be able to
configure the pool to avoid any latency spikes.

'event-loop-base' provides basic property handling for all 'AioContext'
based event loops. So let's define a new 'MainLoopClass' that inherits
from it. This will permit tweaking the main loop's properties through
qapi as well as through the command line using the '-object' keyword[1].
Only one instance of 'MainLoopClass' might be created at any time.
'EventLoopBaseClass' learns a new callback, 'can_be_deleted()' so as to
mark 'MainLoop' as non-deletable.
[1] For example:
-object main-loop,id=main-loop,aio-max-batch=<value>

g_new(T, n) is neater than g_malloc(sizeof(T) * n). It's also safer,
for two reasons. One, it catches multiplication overflowing size_t.
Two, it returns T * rather than void *, which lets the compiler catch
more type errors.
This commit only touches allocations with size arguments of the form
sizeof(T).

Adaptive polling measures the execution time of the polling check plus
handlers called when a polled event becomes ready. Handlers can take a
significant amount of time, making it look like polling was running for
a long time when in fact the event handler was running for a long time.
For example, on Linux the io_submit(2) syscall invoked when a virtio-blk
device's virtqueue becomes ready can take 10s of microseconds. This
can exceed the default polling interval (32 microseconds) and cause
adaptive polling to stop polling.
By excluding the handler's execution time from the polling check we make
the adaptive polling calculation more accurate. As a result, the event
loop now stays in polling mode where previously it would have fallen
back to file descriptor monitoring.
The following data was collected with virtio-blk num-queues=2
event_idx=off using an IOThread. Before:
168k IOPS, IOThread syscalls:
9837.115 ( 0.020 ms): IO iothread1/620155 io_submit(ctx_id: 140512552468480, nr: 16, iocbpp: 0x7fcb9f937db0) = 16

9837.163 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 ppoll(ufds: 0x7fcb90002800, nfds: 4, tsp: 0x7fcb9f1342d0, sigsetsize: 8) = 3
9837.164 ( 0.001 ms): IO iothread1/620155 read(fd: 107, buf: 0x7fcb9f939cc0, count: 512) = 8

174k IOPS (+3.6%), IOThread syscalls:
9809.566 ( 0.036 ms): IO iothread1/623061 io_submit(ctx_id: 140539805028352, nr: 32, iocbpp: 0x7fd0cdd62be0) = 32

Notice that ppoll(2) and eventfd read(2) syscalls are eliminated because
the IOThread stays in polling mode instead of falling back to file
descriptor monitoring.
As usual, polling is not implemented on Windows so this patch ignores
the new io_poll_read() callback in aio-win32.c.

It can be difficult to debug issues with BHs in production environments.
Although BHs can usually be identified by looking up their ->cb()
function pointer, this requires debug information for the program. It is
also not possible to print human-readable diagnostics about BHs because
they have no identifier.
This patch adds a name to each BH. The name is not unique per instance
but differentiates between cb() functions, which is usually enough. It's
done by changing aio_bh_new() and friends to macros that stringify cb.
The next patch will use the name field when reporting leaked BHs.

If we want to wake up a coroutine from a worker thread, aio_co_wake()
currently does not work. In that scenario, aio_co_wake() calls
aio_co_enter(), but there is no current AioContext and therefore
qemu_get_current_aio_context() returns the main thread. aio_co_wake()
then attempts to call aio_context_acquire() instead of going through
aio_co_schedule().
The default case of qemu_get_current_aio_context() was added to cover
synchronous I/O started from the vCPU thread, but the main and vCPU
threads are quite different. The main thread is an I/O thread itself,
only running a more complicated event loop; the vCPU thread instead
is essentially a worker thread that occasionally calls
qemu_mutex_lock_iothread(). It is only in those critical sections
that it acts as if it were the home thread of the main AioContext.
Therefore, this patch detaches qemu_get_current_aio_context() from
iothreads, which is a useless complication. The AioContext pointer
is stored directly in the thread-local variable, including for the
main loop. Worker threads (including vCPU threads) optionally behave
as temporary home threads if they have taken the big QEMU lock,
but if that is not the case they will always schedule coroutines
on remote threads via aio_co_schedule().
With this change, the stub qemu_mutex_iothread_locked() must be changed
from true to false. The previous value of true was needed because the
main thread did not have an AioContext in the thread-local variable,
but now it does have one.

LLVM/Clang, supports runtime checks for forward-edge Control-Flow
Integrity (CFI).
CFI on indirect function calls (cfi-icall) ensures that, in indirect
function calls, the function called is of the right signature for the
pointer type defined at compile time.
For this check to work, the code must always respect the function
signature when using function pointer, the function must be defined
at compile time, and be compiled with link-time optimization.
This rules out, for example, shared libraries that are dynamically loaded
(given that functions are not known at compile time), and code that is
dynamically generated at run-time.
This patch:
1) Introduces the CONFIG_CFI flag to support cfi in QEMU
2) Introduces a decorator to allow the definition of "sensitive"
functions, where a non-instrumented function may be called at runtime
through a pointer. The decorator will take care of disabling cfi-icall
checks on such functions, when cfi is enabled.
3) Marks functions currently in QEMU that exhibit such behavior,
in particular:
- The function in TCG that calls pre-compiled TBs
- The function in TCI that interprets instructions
- Functions in the plugin infrastructures that jump to callbacks
- Functions in util that directly call a signal handler

refactoring of cpus.c continues with cpu timer state extraction.
cpu-timers: responsible for the softmmu cpu timers state,
including cpu clocks and ticks.
icount: counts the TCG instructions executed. As such it is specific to
the TCG accelerator. Therefore, it is built only under CONFIG_TCG.
One complication is due to qtest, which uses an icount field to warp time
as part of qtest (qtest_clock_warp).
In order to solve this problem, provide a separate counter for qtest.
This requires fixing assumptions scattered in the code that
qtest_enabled() implies icount_enabled(), checking each specific case.

Not exactly elegant, I'm afraid.
The "when != lbl:" is necessary to avoid transforming
if (fun(args, &err)) {
goto out
}
...
out:
error_propagate(errp, err);
even though other paths to label out still need the error_propagate().
For an actual example, see sclp_realize().
Without the "when strict", Coccinelle transforms vfio_msix_setup(),
incorrectly. I don't know what exactly "when strict" does, only that
it helps here.
The match of return is narrower than what I want, but I can't figure
out how to express "return where the operand doesn't use @err". For
an example where it's too narrow, see vfio_intx_enable().
Silently fails to convert hw/arm/armsse.c, because Coccinelle gets
confused by ARMSSE being used both as typedef and function-like macro
there. Converted manually.
Line breaks tidied up manually. One nested declaration of @local_err
deleted manually. Preexisting unwanted blank line dropped in

should check "n_poll_fds + w->num <= ARRAY_SIZE(poll_fds)" because the

Commit d759c951f3287fad04210a52f2dc93f94cf58c7f ("replay: push
replay_mutex_lock up the call tree") removed the !timeout lock
optimization in the main loop.
The idea of the optimization was to avoid ping-pongs between threads by
keeping the Big QEMU Lock held across non-blocking (!timeout) main loop
iterations.
A warning is printed when the main loop spins without releasing BQL for
long periods of time. These warnings were supposed to aid debugging but
in practice they just alarm users. They are considered noise because
the cause of spinning is not shown and is hard to find.
Now that the lock optimization has been removed, there is no danger of
hogging the BQL. Drop the spin counter and the infamous warning.

Now instead of using the replay_lock to guard the output of the log we
now use it to protect the whole execution section. This replaces what
the BQL used to do when it was held during TCG execution.
We also introduce some rules for locking order - mainly that you
cannot take the replay_mutex while holding the BQL. This leads to some
slight sophistry during start-up and extending the
replay_mutex_destroy function to unlock the mutex without checking
for the BQL condition so it can be cleanly dropped in the non-replay
case.

method of printing warnings to the user.
All of the warnings were changed using these commands:
find ./* -type f -exec sed -i \

{} +
find ./* -type f -exec sed -i \

Indentation fixed up manually afterwards.
Some of the lines were manually edited to reduce the line length to below
80 charecters. Some of the lines with newlines in the middle of the

The #include lines were manually updated to allow the code to compile.

The last users of main_loop_wait() that cared about the return value
have now been changed to no longer use it. Drop the now-useless return
value and make the function return void.
We avoid the awkwardness of ifdeffery to handle the 'ret'
variable in main_loop_wait() only being wanted if CONFIG_SLIRP
by simply dropping all the ifdefs. There are stub implementations
of slirp_pollfds_poll() and slirp_pollfds_fill() already in
stubs/slirp.c which do nothing, as required.

When running virt-rescue the serial console hangs from time to time.
Virt-rescue runs an ordinary Linux kernel "appliance", but there is
only a single idle process running inside, so the qemu main loop is
largely idle. With virt-rescue >= 1.37 you may be able to observe the
hang by doing:
$ virt-rescue -e ^] --scratch
><rescue> while true; do ls -l /usr/bin; done
The hang in virt-rescue can be resolved by pressing a key on the
serial console.
Possibly with the same root cause, we also observed hangs during very
early boot of regular Linux VMs with a serial console. Those hangs
are extremely rare, but you may be able to observe them by running
this command on baremetal for a sufficiently long time:
$ while libguestfs-test-tool -t 60 >& /tmp/log ; do echo -n . ; done
(Check in /tmp/log that the failure was caused by a hang during early
boot, and not some other reason)

This patch exactly implements Paolo's suggestion in that paragraph.
This fixes the serial console hang in my testing, across 3 different
physical machines (AMD, Intel Core i7 and Intel Xeon), over many hours
of automated testing. I wasn't able to reproduce the early boot hangs
(but as noted above, these are extremely rare in any case).

[Paolo: this is actually a glib bug: recent glib versions are also
expecting g_main_context_acquire around g_poll---but that is not
documented and probably not even intended].

There is no change for now, because the callback just invokes
qemu_notify_event.

This dependency is the wrong way, and we will need util/qemu-timer.h from
sysemu/cpus.h in the next patch.

The cast is there because sigbus_handler is invoked via sigfd_handler.
But it feels just wrong to use struct qemu_signalfd_siginfo in the
prototype of a function that is passed to sigaction.
Instead, do a simple-minded conversion of qemu_signalfd_siginfo to
siginfo_t.

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.
[Changed copyright "the QEMU team" to "other QEMU contributors" as
suggested by Daniel Berrange and agreed by Paolo.
