Subject: [PATCH v3 0/5] coroutine rwlock downgrade fix, minor VDI changes
Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2021 17:00:02 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210316160007.135459-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
This is a resubmit of David Edmondson's series at
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20210309144015.557477-1-david.edmondson@oracle.com/.
After closer analysis on IRC, the CoRwLock's attempt to ensure
fairness turned out to be flawed. Therefore, this series
reimplements CoRwLock without using a CoQueue. Tracking whether
each queued coroutine is a reader/writer makes it possible to
never wake a writer when only readers should be allowed and
vice versa.
David Edmondson (4):
block/vdi: When writing new bmap entry fails, don't leak the buffer
block/vdi: Don't assume that blocks are larger than VdiHeader
coroutine/mutex: Store the coroutine in the CoWaitRecord only once
test-coroutine: Add rwlock downgrade test
