From 817ef04db2cfa2df04daffd6917f4ea7605f6403 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Kiszka Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2014 14:05:10 +0000 Subject: Make qemu_shutdown_requested signal-safe qemu_shutdown_requested may be interrupted by qemu_system_killed. If the latter sets shutdown_requested after qemu_shutdown_requested has read it but before it was cleared, the shutdown event is lost. Fix this by using atomic_xchg. This provides a different fix for the problem which commit 15124e142 attempts to deal with. That commit breaks use of ^C to drop into gdb, and so this approach is better (and 15124e142 can be reverted).
