[PULL 1/7] block/nbd: Delete reconnect delay timer when done

[Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy]

From: Hanna Reitz <hreitz@redhat.com>

We start the reconnect delay timer to cancel the reconnection attempt
after a while.  Once nbd_co_do_establish_connection() has returned, this
attempt is over, and we no longer need the timer.

Delete it before returning from nbd_reconnect_attempt(), so that it does
not persist beyond the I/O request that was paused for reconnecting; we
do not want it to fire in a drained section, because all sort of things
can happen in such a section (e.g. the AioContext might be changed, and
we do not want the timer to fire in the wrong context; or the BDS might
even be deleted, and so the timer CB would access already-freed data).

[PULL 2/7] block/nbd: Delete open timer when done

[Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy]

From: Hanna Reitz <hreitz@redhat.com>

We start the open timer to cancel the connection attempt after a while.
Once nbd_do_establish_connection() has returned, the attempt is over,
and we no longer need the timer.

Delete it before returning from nbd_open(), so that it does not persist
for longer.  It has no use after nbd_open(), and just like the reconnect
delay timer, it might well be dangerous if it were to fire afterwards.

[PULL 3/7] block/nbd: Assert there are no timers when closed

[Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy]

From: Hanna Reitz <hreitz@redhat.com>

Our two timers must not remain armed beyond nbd_clear_bdrvstate(), or
they will access freed data when they fire.

This patch is separate from the patches that actually fix the issue
(HEAD^^ and HEAD^) so that you can run the associated regression iotest
(281) on a configuration that reproducibly exposes the bug.

[PULL 4/7] iotests.py: Add QemuStorageDaemon class

[Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy]

From: Hanna Reitz <hreitz@redhat.com>

This is a rather simple class that allows creating a QSD instance
running in the background and stopping it when no longer needed.

The __del__ handler is a safety net for when something goes so wrong in
a test that e.g. the tearDown() method is not called (e.g. setUp()
launches the QSD, but then launching a VM fails).  We do not want the
QSD to continue running after the test has failed, so __del__() will
take care to kill it.

[PULL 5/7] iotests/281: Test lingering timers

[Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy]

From: Hanna Reitz <hreitz@redhat.com>

Prior to "block/nbd: Delete reconnect delay timer when done" and
"block/nbd: Delete open timer when done", both of those timers would
remain scheduled even after successfully (re-)connecting to the server,
and they would not even be deleted when the BDS is deleted.

This test constructs exactly this situation:
(1) Configure an @open-timeout, so the open timer is armed, and
(2) Configure a @reconnect-delay and trigger a reconnect situation
    (which succeeds immediately), so the reconnect delay timer is armed.
Then we immediately delete the BDS, and sleep for longer than the
@open-timeout and @reconnect-delay.  Prior to said patches, this caused
one (or both) of the timer CBs to access already-freed data.

Accessing freed data may or may not crash, so this test can produce
false successes, but I do not know how to show the problem in a better
or more reliable way.  If you run this test on "block/nbd: Assert there
are no timers when closed" and without the fix patches mentioned above,
you should reliably see an assertion failure.
(But all other tests that use the reconnect delay timer (264 and 277)
will fail in that configuration, too; as will nbd-reconnect-on-open,
which uses the open timer.)

Remove this test from the quick group because of the two second sleep
this patch introduces.

(I decided to put this test case into 281, because the main bug this
series addresses is in the interaction of the NBD block driver and I/O
threads, which is precisely the scope of 281.  The test case for that
other bug will also be put into the test class added here.

Also, excuse the test class's name, I couldn't come up with anything
better.  The "yield" part will make sense two patches from now.)

context changes, s->ioc must be attached to the new context.

[PULL 7/7] iotests/281: Let NBD connection yield in iothread

[Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy]

From: Hanna Reitz <hreitz@redhat.com>

Put an NBD block device into an I/O thread, and then read data from it,
hoping that the NBD connection will yield during that read.  When it
does, the coroutine must be reentered in the block device's I/O thread,
which will only happen if the NBD block driver attaches the connection's
QIOChannel to the new AioContext.  It did not do that after 4ddb5d2fde
("block/nbd: drop connection_co") and prior to "block/nbd: Move s->ioc
on AioContext change", which would cause an assertion failure.

To improve our chances of yielding, the NBD server is throttled to
reading 64 kB/s, and the NBD client reads 128 kB, so it should yield at
some point.

Hi; this pullreq is OK content-wise, but the commits are missing
your Signed-off-by: line as the submaintainer/submitter of the
pull request. Could you add them and resend, please?

thanks

Oops, sorry. I thought I'm already an experienced maintainer and don't need to re-read "Submitting a Pull Request" instruction every time. I was wrong:)

Assuming you are using pwclient to pull patchtes, just add

signoff=on

to your .pwclientrc config file to automatically add your signoff tag to 
pulled patches. Additionally I would recommend adding:

msgid=on

which will add the email message id of each patch, so that people can review 
the discussions on qemu-devel later on if needed. On Linux kernel side it's 
now more common to add a Link: tag, which is a bit more convenient as people 
can just click on it to get to the discussion. Not sure if there is config 
option for pwclient for that as well.
