[Qemu-block] [RFC PATCH 00/11] Block layer thread-safety, part 2

[Paolo Bonzini]

This part takes care of drivers and devices, making sure that they can
accept concurrent I/O from multiple AioContext.  Only RFC for now because it
depends on Kevin's QED conversion to coroutines, which is still in flux.

The following drivers are thread-safe without using any QemuMutex/CoMutex:
crypto, gluster, null, rbd, win32-aio.

The following drivers already use mutexes for everything except possibly
snapshots, which do not (yet?) need protection: bochs, cloop, dmg, qcow,
parallels, vhdx, vmdk, curl, iscsi, nfs.

The following drivers already use mutexes for _almost_ everything: vpc
(missing get_block_status), vdi (missing bitmap access), vvfat (missing
commit), nbd (s->in_flight not protected), qcow2 (must call CoQueue APIs
under CoMutex).  They are fixed by patches 1-6.

The following drivers must be changed to use CoMutex to protect internal
data: qed (patches 7-9), sheepdog (patch 10).

The following driver must be changed to support I/O from any AioContext:
ssh.  It is fixed by patch 11.

Paolo Bonzini (11):
  qcow2: call CoQueue APIs under CoMutex
  coroutine-lock: add qemu_co_rwlock_downgrade and qemu_co_rwlock_upgrade
  vdi: make it thread-safe
  vpc: make it thread-safe
  vvfat: make it thread-safe
  nbd: make it thread-safe
  qed: move tail of qed_aio_write_main to qed_aio_write_{cow,alloc}
  block: invoke .bdrv_drain callback in coroutine context and from AioContext
  qed: protect table cache with CoMutex
  sheepdog: add queue_lock
  ssh: support I/O from any AioContext
