Subject: [PATCH v3 0/5] blkdebug: fix racing condition when iterating on
Date: Mon, 17 May 2021 16:50:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210517145049.55268-1-eesposit@redhat.com> (raw)

When qemu_coroutine_enter is executed in a loop
(even QEMU_FOREACH_SAFE), the new routine can modify the list,
for example removing an element, causing problem when control
is given back to the caller that continues iterating on the same list. 

Patch 1 solves the issue in blkdebug_debug_resume by restarting
the list walk after every coroutine_enter if list has to be fully iterated.
Patches 2,3,4 aim to fix blkdebug_debug_event by gathering
all actions that the rules make in a counter and invoking 
the respective coroutine_yeld only after processing all requests.

Patch 5 is somewhat independent of the others, it adds a lock to
protect rules and suspended_reqs; right now everything works because
it's protected by the AioContext lock.
This is a preparation for the current proposal of removing the AioContext
lock and instead using smaller granularity locks to allow multiple
iothread execution in the same block device.
