      module: Use bundle mechanism · 98753e9a
      Akihiko Odaki authored 
      
Before this change, the directory of the executable was being added to
resolve modules in the build tree. However, get_relocated_path() can now
resolve them with the new bundle mechanism.

      cutils: Introduce bundle mechanism · cf60ccc3
      Akihiko Odaki authored 
      
Developers often run QEMU without installing. The bundle mechanism
allows to look up files which should be present in installation even in
such a situation.

It is a general mechanism and can find any files in the installation
tree. The build tree will have a new directory, qemu-bundle, to
represent what files the installation tree would have for reference by
the executables.

Note that it abandons compatibility with Windows older than 8. The
extended support for the prior version, 7 ended more than 2 years ago,
and it is unlikely that someone would like to run the latest QEMU on
such an old system.

      coroutine-lock: qemu_co_queue_restart_all is a coroutine-only qemu_co_enter_all · f0d43b1e
      Paolo Bonzini authored 
      
qemu_co_queue_restart_all is basically the same as qemu_co_enter_all
but without a QemuLockable argument.  That's perfectly fine, but only as
long as the function is marked coroutine_fn.  If used outside coroutine
context, qemu_co_queue_wait will attempt to take the lock and that
is just broken: if you are calling qemu_co_queue_restart_all outside
coroutine context, the lock is going to be a QemuMutex which cannot be
taken twice by the same thread.

The patch adds the marker to qemu_co_queue_restart_all and to its sole
non-coroutine_fn caller; it then reimplements the function in terms of
qemu_co_enter_all_impl, to remove duplicated code and to clarify that the
latter also works in coroutine context.

      Paolo Bonzini authored 
      
Because qemu_co_queue_restart_all does not release the lock, it should
be used only in coroutine context.  Introduce a new function that,
like qemu_co_enter_next, does release the lock, and use it whenever
qemu_co_queue_restart_all was used outside coroutine context.

      coroutine: Revert to constant batch size · 9ec7a59b
      Kevin Wolf authored 
      Commit 4c41c69e changed the way the coroutine pool is sized because for
virtio-blk devices with a large queue size and heavy I/O, it was just
too small and caused coroutines to be deleted and reallocated soon
afterwards. The change made the size dynamic based on the number of
queues and the queue size of virtio-blk devices.

There are two important numbers here: Slightly simplified, when a
coroutine terminates, it is generally stored in the global release pool
up to a certain pool size, and if the pool is full, it is freed.
Conversely, when allocating a new coroutine, the coroutines in the
release pool are reused if the pool already has reached a certain
minimum size (the batch size), otherwise we allocate new coroutines.

The problem after commit 4c41c69e is that it not only increases the
maximum pool size (which is the intended effect), but also the batch
size for reusing coroutines (which is a bug). It means that in cases
with many devices and/or a large queue size (which defaults to the
number of vcpus for virtio-blk-pci), many thousand coroutines could be
sitting in the release pool without being reused.

This is not only a waste of memory and allocations, but it actually
makes the QEMU process likely to hit the vm.max_map_count limit on Linux
because each coroutine requires two mappings (its stack and the guard
page for the stack), causing it to abort() in qemu_alloc_stack() because
when the limit is hit, mprotect() starts to fail with ENOMEM.

In order to fix the problem, change the batch size back to 64 to avoid
uselessly accumulating coroutines in the release pool, but keep the
dynamic maximum pool size so that coroutines aren't freed too early
in heavy I/O scenarios.

Note that this fix doesn't strictly make it impossible to hit the limit,
but this would only happen if most of the coroutines are actually in use
at the same time, not just sitting in a pool. This is the same behaviour
as we already had before commit 4c41c69e. Fully preventing this would
require allowing qemu_coroutine_create() to return an error, but it
doesn't seem to be a scenario that people hit in practice.

      coroutine: Rename qemu_coroutine_inc/dec_pool_size() · 98e3ab35
      Kevin Wolf authored 
      
It's true that these functions currently affect the batch size in which
coroutines are reused (i.e. moved from the global release pool to the
allocation pool of a specific thread), but this is a bug and will be
fixed in a separate patch.

In fact, the comment in the header file already just promises that it
influences the pool size, so reflect this in the name of the functions.
As a nice side effect, the shorter function name makes some line
wrapping unnecessary.

      coroutine-win32: use QEMU_DEFINE_STATIC_CO_TLS() · c1fe6943
      Stefan Hajnoczi authored 
      
Thread-Local Storage variables cannot be used directly from coroutine
code because the compiler may optimize TLS variable accesses across
qemu_coroutine_yield() calls. When the coroutine is re-entered from
another thread the TLS variables from the old thread must no longer be
used.

Use QEMU_DEFINE_STATIC_CO_TLS() for the current and leader variables.

I think coroutine-win32.c could get away with __thread because the
variables are only used in situations where either the stale value is
correct (current) or outside coroutine context (loading leader when
current is NULL). Due to the difficulty of being sure that this is
really safe in all scenarios it seems worth converting it anyway.

The alloc_pool QSLIST needs a typedef so the return value of
get_ptr_alloc_pool() can be stored in a local variable.

One example of why this code is necessary: a coroutine that yields
before calling qemu_coroutine_create() to create another coroutine is
affected by the TLS issue.
