From: Longpeng <longpe...@huawei.com> We find an issue when repeat reboot in guest during migration, it cause the migration thread never be waken up again.
<main loop> |<migration_thread> | LOCK BQL | ... | main_loop_should_exit | pause_all_vcpus | 1. set all cpus ->stop=true | and then kick | 2. return if all cpus is paused | (by '->stopped == true'), else| 3. qemu_cond_wait [BQL UNLOCK] | |LOCK BQL |... |do_vm_stop | pause_all_vcpus | (A)set all cpus ->stop=true | and then kick | (B)return if all cpus is paused | (by '->stopped == true'), else | (C)qemu_cond_wait [BQL UNLOCK] 4. be waken up and LOCK BQL | (D)be waken up BUT wait for BQL 5. goto 2. | (BQL is still LOCKed) | resume_all_vcpus | 1. set all cpus ->stop=false | and ->stopped=false | ... | BQL UNLOCK | (E)LOCK BQL | (F)goto B. [but stopped is false now!] |Finally, sleep at step 3 forever. Note: This patch is just for discuss this issue, I'm looking forward to your suggestions, thanks!
