2013-12-06aio: make aio_poll(ctx, true) block with no fdsStefan Hajnoczi
This patch drops a special case where aio_poll(ctx, true) returns false instead of blocking if no file descriptors are waiting on I/O. Now it is possible to block in aio_poll() to wait for aio_notify(). This change eliminates busy waiting. bdrv_drain_all() used to rely on busy waiting to completed throttled I/O requests but this is no longer required so we can simplify aio_poll(). Note that aio_poll() still returns false when aio_notify() was used. In other words, stopping a blocking aio_poll() wait is not considered making progress. Adjust test-aio /aio/bh/callback-delete/one which assumed aio_poll(ctx, true) would immediately return false instead of blocking.

2013-08-22aio / timers: Convert aio_poll to use AioContext timers' deadlineAlex Bligh
Convert aio_poll to use deadline based on AioContext's timers. aio_poll has been changed to return accurately whether progress has occurred. Prior to this commit, aio_poll always returned true if g_poll was entered, whether or not any progress was made. This required a change to tests/test-aio.c where an assert was backwards.

2013-08-19aio: drop io_flush argumentStefan Hajnoczi
The .io_flush() handler no longer exists and has no users. Drop the io_flush argument to aio_set_fd_handler() and related functions. The AioFlushEventNotifierHandler and AioFlushHandler typedefs are no longer used and are dropped too.

2013-08-19aio: stop using .io_flush()Stefan Hajnoczi
Now that aio_poll() users check their termination condition themselves, it is no longer necessary to call .io_flush() handlers. The behavior of aio_poll() changes as follows: 1. .io_flush() is no longer invoked and file descriptors are *always* monitored. Previously returning 0 from .io_flush() would skip this file descriptor. Due to this change it is essential to check that requests are pending before calling qemu_aio_wait(). Failure to do so means we block, for example, waiting for an idle iSCSI socket to become readable when there are no requests. Currently all qemu_aio_wait()/aio_poll() callers check before calling. 2. aio_poll() now returns true if progress was made (BH or fd handlers executed) and false otherwise. Previously it would return true whenever 'busy', which means that .io_flush() returned true. The 'busy' concept no longer exists so just progress is returned. Due to this change we need to update tests/test-aio.c which asserts aio_poll() return values. Note that QEMU doesn't actually rely on these return values so only tests/test-aio.c cares. Note that ctx->notifier, the EventNotifier fd used for aio_notify(), is now handled as a special case. This is a little ugly but maintains aio_poll() semantics, i.e. aio_notify() does not count as 'progress' and aio_poll() avoids blocking when the user has not set any fd handlers yet. Patches after this remove .io_flush() handler code until we can finally drop the io_flush arguments to aio_set_fd_handler() and friends.

2013-02-21aio: support G_IO_HUP and G_IO_ERRStefan Hajnoczi
aio-posix.c could not take advantage of G_IO_HUP and G_IO_ERR because select(2) does not have equivalent events. Now that g_poll(3) is used we can support G_IO_HUP and G_IO_ERR.

2013-02-21aio: convert aio_poll() to g_poll(3)Stefan Hajnoczi
AioHandler already has a GPollFD so we can directly use its events/revents. Add the int pollfds_idx field to AioContext so we can map g_poll(3) results back to AioHandlers. Reuse aio_dispatch() to invoke handlers after g_poll(3).

2013-02-21aio: extract aio_dispatch() from aio_poll()Stefan Hajnoczi
We will need to loop over AioHandlers calling ->io_read()/->io_write() when aio_poll() is converted from select(2) to g_poll(2). Luckily the code for this already exists, extract it into the new aio_dispatch() function. Two small changes: * aio_poll() checks !node->deleted to avoid calling handlers that have been deleted. * Fix typo 'then' -> 'them' in aio_poll() comment.

2013-01-17aio: Fix return value of aio_poll()Kevin Wolf
aio_poll() must return true if any work is still pending, even if it didn't make progress, so that bdrv_drain_all() doesn't stop waiting too early. The possibility of stopping early occasionally lead to a failed assertion in bdrv_drain_all(), when some in-flight request was missed and the function didn't really drain all requests. In order to make that change, the return value as specified in the function comment must change for blocking = false; fortunately, the return value of blocking = false callers is only used in test cases, so this change shouldn't cause any trouble.
