Maybe the subject line could be:

util: Drop unused inet_unblocking_connect()

but what you have isn't too bad.

Could be squashed with 1/2.  In fact, if you squash it, I'd title the patch:

util: Drop unused *_nonblocking_connect() functions

You may also want to call out which commit id rendered the functions unused.

Well once those two functions are dropped the only other place accepting
NonBlockingConnectHandler is the socket_connect() method. Since nearly
everything is converted to QIOChannel now, there's only one caller of
socket_connect() left, and that's net/socket.c

Any newly written code which needs a non-blocking connect should use the
QIOChannel code, so I don't see any further usage of socket_connect()
being added.

IOW, we can rip out NonBlockingConnectHandler as a concept entirely, not
merely drop the *_nonblocking_connect() methods.

Daniel

I don't quite follow the "rip out NonBlockingConnectHandler" thing. 
According what I learned from code, we offered non-blocking connection 
mechanism, but it seems nobody use it(all callers of socket_connect() 
set callback as NULL), so, do you mean removing this mechanism?

more explanation will be much appreciated:)

Yes, remove it all, as it is no longer needed.

Thanks for clarifying. Actually, I am still curious why nobody want to 
use this mechanism, is there any disadvantage? And why this mechanism is 
introduced in

As mentioned previously it is obsolete as all new code will use the QIOChannel
APIs which already provide non-blocking connect in a different manner. The
qemu-sockets non-blocking code never worked properly in the first place
because it calls getaddrinfo() which blocks on DNS lookups.

Daniel

Aha! I see! And also I see the comment you left in the code:
     /* socket_connect() does a non-blocking connect(), but it
      * still blocks in DNS lookups, so we must use a thread */

Thanks very much, and I think maybe I can do this cleanup work:)

It's okay, I'll rephrase it to

It is never used; all nonblocking connect now goes through
inet_connect_addr().

and

It is never used; all nonblocking connect now goes through
unix_connect_addr().

respectively.

Thanks,

Paolo
