Subject: [PATCH] cpus: kick all vCPUs when running thread=single
Date: Tue,  1 Oct 2019 17:04:26 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191001160426.26644-1-alex.bennee@linaro.org> (raw)

qemu_cpu_kick is used for a number of reasons including to indicate
there is work to be done. However when thread=single the old
qemu_cpu_kick_rr_cpu only advanced the vCPU to the next executing one
which can lead to a hang in the case that:

  a) the kick is from outside the vCPUs (e.g. iothread)
  b) the timers are paused (i.e. iothread calling run_on_cpu)

To avoid this lets split qemu_cpu_kick_rr into two functions. One for
the timer which continues to advance to the next timeslice and another
for all other kicks.
