[PATCH v2] hw/core/resettable: make in-reset state false during exit phase call

[Damien Hedde]

Move the reset count decrement from "just after" to "just before"
calling the exit phase handler. The goal is to make
resettable_is_in_reset() returning false during the handler execution.

This simplifies reset handling in resettable devices.

Typically, a function that updates the device state will just need
to read the current reset state and not anymore treat the "in
a reset-exit transition" special case.

As a side note, this patch also fixes the fact that the reset count was
not decremented in case of recursive reset.

Hi,

Following our discussion:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-01/msg01013.html
here's my proposal to fix Michael's bug on a global scope.

I flaged it v2 because I've taken Philippe's remarks there:
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-12/msg00635.html
I've also changed the patch title, I think it is better this way.

Thanks,
Damien

 Resettable interface provides the ``resettable_is_in_reset()`` function.
 This function returns true if the object parameter is currently under reset.
 
-An object is under reset from the beginning of the *init* phase to the end of
-the *exit* phase. During all three phases, the function will return that the
-object is in reset.
+An object is under reset from the beginning of the *init* phase to the *exit*

 This function may be used if the object behavior has to be adapted
 while in reset state. For example if a device has an irq input,
