2015-03-10qemu-thread: do not use PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECKPaolo Bonzini
PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK is completely broken with respect to fork. The way to safely do fork is to bring all threads to a quiescent state by acquiring locks (either in callers---as we do for the iothread mutex---or using pthread_atfork's prepare callbacks) and then release them in the child. The problem is that releasing error-checking locks in the child fails under glibc with EPERM, because the mutex stores a different owner tid than the duplicated thread in the child process. We could make it work for locks acquired via pthread_atfork, by recreating the mutex in the child instead of unlocking it (we know that there are no other threads that could have taken the mutex; but when the lock is acquired in fork's caller that would not be possible. The simplest solution is just to forgo error checking. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2015-02-02qemu-thread: fix qemu_event without futexesPaolo Bonzini
This had a possible deadlock that was visible with rcutorture. qemu_event_set qemu_event_wait ---------------------------------------------------------------- cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock futex_wait: value == BUSY xchg reads BUSY, writes SET futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait <deadlock> The fix is simply to avoid condvar tricks and do the obvious locking around pthread_cond_broadcast: qemu_event_set qemu_event_wait ---------------------------------------------------------------- cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock futex_wait: value == BUSY xchg reads BUSY, writes SET futex_wake: pthread_mutex_lock (blocks) futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait (mutex unlocked) futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast futex_wake: pthread_mutex_unlock futex_wait: pthread_mutex_unlock Cc: qemu-stable@nongnu.org Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2015-01-13qemu-thread: add per-thread atexit functionsPaolo Bonzini
Destructors are the main additional feature of pthread TLS compared to __thread. If we were using C++ (hint, hint!) we could have used thread-local objects with a destructor. Since we are not, instead, we add a simple Notifier-based API. Note that the notifier must be per-thread as well. We can add a global list as well later, perhaps. The Win32 implementation has some complications because a) detached threads used not to have a QemuThreadData; b) the main thread does not go through win32_start_routine, so we have to use atexit too.

2013-10-17qemu-thread: add QemuEventPaolo Bonzini
This emulates Win32 manual-reset events using futexes or conditional variables. Typical ways to use them are with multi-producer, single-consumer data structures, to test for a complex condition whose elements come from different threads: for (;;) { qemu_event_reset(ev); ... test complex condition ... if (condition is true) { break; } qemu_event_wait(ev); } Or more efficiently (but with some duplication): ... evaluate condition ... while (!condition) { qemu_event_reset(ev); ... evaluate condition ... if (!condition) { qemu_event_wait(ev); ... evaluate condition ... } } QemuEvent provides a very fast userspace path in the common case when no other thread is waiting, or the event is not changing state.

2013-08-05semaphore: fix a hangup problem under load on NetBSD hosts.Izumi Tsutsui
Fix following bugs in "fallback implementation of counting semaphores with mutex+condvar" added in c166cb72f1676855816340666c3b618beef4b976: - waiting threads are not restarted properly if more than one threads are waiting unblock signals in qemu_sem_timedwait() - possible missing pthread_cond_signal(3) calls when waiting threads are returned by ETIMEDOUT - fix an uninitialized variable The problem is analyzed by and fix is provided by Noriyuki Soda. Also put additional cleanup suggested by Laszlo Ersek: - make QemuSemaphore.count unsigned (it won't be negative) - check a return value of in pthread_cond_wait() in qemu_sem_wait() Signed-off-by: Izumi Tsutsui <tsutsui@ceres.dti.ne.jp> Reviewed-by: Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com> Message-id: 1372841894-10634-1-git-send-email-tsutsui@ceres.dti.ne.jp Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
