Subject: [PATCH 02/12] block: Clarify locking rules for bdrv_open(_inherit)()
Date: Thu, 25 May 2023 14:47:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230525124713.401149-3-kwolf@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230525124713.401149-1-kwolf@redhat.com>
These functions specify that the caller must hold the "@filename
AioContext lock". This doesn't make sense, file names don't have an
AioContext. New BlockDriverStates always start in the main AioContext,
so this is what we really need here.
