Why would C1 be used for the qemu_co_queue_run_restart() call? There is only one caller, coroutine_swap(). It calls the function for the coroutine that has just yielded or terminated. In the case of termination, the coroutine is deleted only afterwards, in the switch block in coroutine_swap(). > The qemu_co_queue_run_restart function re-enters coroutines waiting > in the co_queue. However, this function should be only used int the > qemu_coroutine_enter context. It shouldn't make a difference. Any coroutine waiting in a CoQueue should be ready to be restarted at either point.
