I'm not very confident with this patch. aio_context_acquire/release is
going to go away, and this then becomes possible
main context new_context
qemu_aio_coroutine_enter
send request
wait for reply
read first reply
wake coroutine
where the "wake coroutine" part thinks it's running in new_context, and
thus simply enters the coroutine instead of using the bottom half.
But blk_co_preadv() should need the read_reply_co itself, in order to be
woken up after reading the reply header. The core issue here is that
nbd_co_receive_reply was never called, I suspect. And if it was never
called, read_reply_co should not be woken up by nbd_coroutine_end.
So the fix is:
1) assign NULL to s->recv_coroutine[i] when nbd_co_send_request fails
2) move this to nbd_co_receive_reply:
s->recv_coroutine[i] = NULL;
/* Kick the read_reply_co to get the next reply. */
if (s->read_reply_co) {
aio_co_wake(s->read_reply_co);
}
Does this make sense? (Note that the read_reply_co idea actually came
from you, or from my recollections of your proposed design :)).
