The patches fix the problems encountered in multifd migration when try
to cancel the migration by migrate_cancel.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] migration: fix migrate_cancel leads live_migration thread endless loop

[Ivan Ren]

When we 'migrate_cancel' a multifd migration, live_migration thread may
go into endless loop in multifd_send_pages functions.

Reproduce steps:

(qemu) migrate_set_capability multifd on
(qemu) migrate -d url
(qemu) [wait a while]
(qemu) migrate_cancel

Then may get live_migration 100% cpu usage in following stack:

pthread_mutex_lock
qemu_mutex_lock_impl
multifd_send_pages
multifd_queue_page
ram_save_multifd_page
ram_save_target_page
ram_save_host_page
ram_find_and_save_block
ram_find_and_save_block
ram_save_iterate
qemu_savevm_state_iterate
migration_iteration_run
migration_thread
qemu_thread_start
start_thread
clone

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/3] migration: fix migrate_cancel leads live_migration thread hung forever

[Ivan Ren]

When we 'migrate_cancel' a multifd migration, live_migration thread may
hung forever at some points, because of multifd_send_thread has already
exit for socket error:
1. multifd_send_pages may hung at qemu_sem_wait(&multifd_send_state->
   channels_ready)
2. multifd_send_sync_main my hung at qemu_sem_wait(&multifd_send_state->
   sem_sync)

flags is also needed.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 3/3] migration: fix migrate_cancel multifd migration leads destination hung forever

[Ivan Ren]

When migrate_cancel a multifd migration, if run sequence like this:

        [source]                              [destination]

multifd_send_sync_main[finish]
                                    multifd_recv_thread wait &p->sem_sync
shutdown to_dst_file
                                    detect error from_src_file
send  RAM_SAVE_FLAG_EOS[fail]       [no chance to run multifd_recv_sync_main]
                                    multifd_load_cleanup
                                    join multifd receive thread forever

will lead destination qemu hung at following stack:

pthread_join
qemu_thread_join
multifd_load_cleanup
process_incoming_migration_co
coroutine_trampoline

I think this one is not enough.  We need to set some error code, or
disable the running bit at that point.

Let's see where we wait for p->sem_sync:


static void *multifd_recv_thread(void *opaque)
{
    ....
    while (true) {
        uint32_t used;
        uint32_t flags;

        ret = qio_channel_read_all_eof(p->c, (void *)p->packet,
                                       p->packet_len, &local_err);
        .....

        if (flags & MULTIFD_FLAG_SYNC) {
            qemu_sem_post(&multifd_recv_state->sem_sync);
            qemu_sem_wait(&p->sem_sync);
        }
    }
    if (local_err) {
        multifd_recv_terminate_threads(local_err);
    }
    qemu_mutex_lock(&p->mutex);
    p->running = false;
    qemu_mutex_unlock(&p->mutex);

    rcu_unregister_thread();
    trace_multifd_recv_thread_end(p->id, p->num_packets, p->num_pages);

    return NULL;
}

If we just post it there, we get out of the wait (that bit is ok), but
then we go back to the beggining of the bucle, we (probably) got one
error on the qui_channel_read_all_eof(), and we go back to
multifd_recv_terminate_threads(), or wait there.

I think that it is better to *also* set an p->quit variable there, and
not even try to receive anything for that channel?

I will send a patch later.

Good catch.

Later, Juan.

Yes, agree.

Thanks for review.
