[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 0/4] Fix -icount with iothread

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

This series finally fixes -icount with iothread and avoids deadlocks
due to the vm_clock not making progress when the VM is stopped.
The crux of the fix is in patch 1, while patch 2 implements the
"clock warping" that fixes deadlocks in v2.  Clock warping uses
the nanosecond resolution rt_clock timers introduced by my previous
series.

With this in place, patch 3 can revert the previous attempt(s).
Finally, patch 4 makes the icount code clearer by finishing the
bugfix/reorganization of qemu_next_deadline vs. qemu_next_alarm_deadline.

v1->v2:
        reordered patches, renamed qemu_next_deadline

v2->v3:
        introduced warp timer

v3->v4:
        added comments to the code

Paolo Bonzini (4):
  really fix -icount in the iothread case
  enable vm_clock to "warp" in the iothread+icount case
  Revert wrong fixes for -icount in the iothread case
  qemu_next_deadline should not consider host-time timers
