aio / timers: Add a notify callback to QEMUTimerList

Add a notify pointer to QEMUTimerList so it knows what to notify
on a timer change.

aio / timers: aio_ctx_prepare sets timeout from AioContext timers

Calculate the timeout in aio_ctx_prepare taking into account
the timers attached to the AioContext.

Alter aio_ctx_check similarly.

aio / timers: Add QEMUTimerListGroup to AioContext

Add a QEMUTimerListGroup each AioContext (meaning a QEMUTimerList
associated with each clock is added) and delete it when the
AioContext is freed.

aio: drop io_flush argument

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....

QEMUBH: make AioContext's bh re-entrant

BH will be used outside big lock, so introduce lock to protect
between the writers, ie, bh's adders and deleter. The lock only
affects the writers and bh's callback does not take this extra lock.
Note that for the same AioContext, aio_bh_poll() can not run in...

aio: add a ThreadPool instance to AioContext

This patch adds a ThreadPool to AioContext. It's possible that some
AioContext instances will never use the ThreadPool, so defer creation
until aio_get_thread_pool().

The reason why AioContext should have the ThreadPool is because the...

aio: convert aio_poll() to g_poll(3)

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)....

aio: Get rid of qemu_aio_flush()

There are no remaining users, and new users should probably be
using bdrv_drain_all() in the first place.

aio: fix aio_ctx_prepare with idle bottom halves

Commit ed2aec4867f0d5f5de496bb765347b5d0cfe113d changed the return
value of aio_ctx_prepare from false to true when only idle bottom
halves are available. This broke PC old-style DMA, which uses them.
Fix this by making aio_ctx_prepare return true only when non-idle...

aio: introduce AioContext, move bottom halves there

Start introducing AioContext, which will let us remove globals from
aio.c/async.c, and introduce multiple I/O threads.

The bottom half functions now take an additional AioContext argument.
A bottom half is created with a specific AioContext that remains the...

async: Allow nested qemu_bh_poll calls

qemu may segfault when a BH handler first deletes a BH and then (possibly
indirectly) calls a nested qemu_bh_poll(). This is because the inner instance
frees the BH and deletes it from the list that the outer one processes....

async: Remove AsyncContext

The purpose of AsyncContexts was to protect qcow and qcow2 against reentrancy
during an emulated bdrv_read/write (which includes a qemu_aio_wait() call and
can run AIO callbacks of different requests if it weren't for AsyncContexts)....

Allow nested qemu_bh_poll() after BH deletion

Without this, qemu segfaults when a BH handler first deletes its BH and
then calls another function which involves a nested qemu_bh_poll() call.

This can be reproduced by generating an I/O error (e.g. with blkdebug) on...

Introduce contexts for asynchronous callbacks

Add the possibility to use AIO and BHs without allowing foreign callbacks to be
run. Basically, you put your own AIOs and BHs in a separate context. For
details see the comments in the source.
