Subject: [PATCH v2 06/14] util: set the name for the 'main' thread
Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2025 19:03:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250829180354.2922145-7-berrange@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250829180354.2922145-1-berrange@redhat.com>

The default main thread name is undefined, so use a constructor to
explicitly set it to 'main'. This constructor is marked to run early
as the thread name is intended to be used in error reporting / logs
which may be triggered very early in QEMU execution.

Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>
