[Qemu-block] [PULL 5/7] virtio-blk: fix race between .ioeventfd_stop() a


From: Stefan Hajnoczi
Subject: [Qemu-block] [PULL 5/7] virtio-blk: fix race between .ioeventfd_stop() and vq handler
Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2018 13:19:47 +0000

If the main loop thread invokes .ioeventfd_stop() just as the vq handler
function begins in the IOThread then the handler may lose the race for
the AioContext lock.  By the time the vq handler is able to acquire the
AioContext lock the ioeventfd has already been removed and the handler
isn't supposed to run anymore!

Use the new aio_wait_bh_oneshot() function to perform ioeventfd removal
from within the IOThread.  This way no races with the vq handler are
possible.
