[Qemu-block] [RFC PATCH 00/12] block: Protect block jobs with lock / unl


From: Fam Zheng
Subject: [Qemu-block] [RFC PATCH 00/12] block: Protect block jobs with lock / unlock API
Date: Fri, 29 May 2015 18:53:13 +0800

This is the partial work to introduce bdrv_lock / bdrv_unlock and use them in
block jobs where exclusive access to a BDS is necessary. It address the same
category of problems as [1] with a different API, as the idea proposed by Paolo
and Kevin.

What's implemented in this series is also very close to [1], i.e. pausing
ioeventfd and NBD server, with a notifier list.

The important missing pieces are converting bdrv_lock/unlock callers to
coroutine, so that they can wait in the bs->lock_queue.  In other words, this
API is not complete without that, because we can't handle the case where two
non-coroutine callers have contention, which is now asserted in bdrv_lock as
practically impossible.

Thanks,
