[PATCH 3/3] blockdev: mirror: avoid potential deadlock when using iothre


From: Fiona Ebner
Subject: [PATCH 3/3] blockdev: mirror: avoid potential deadlock when using iothread
Date: Thu, 19 Oct 2023 15:19:36 +0200

The bdrv_getlength() function is a generated co-wrapper and uses
AIO_WAIT_WHILE() to wait for the spawned coroutine. AIO_WAIT_WHILE()
expects the lock to be acquired exactly once.

This can happen when the source node is explicitly specified as the
@replaces parameter or if there is a filter on top of the source node.
