Hi, v1: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2021-04/msg00215.html
Alternative: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2021-04/msg00261.html Compared to v1, I’ve added an aio_wait_kick() to job_pause_point() (as suggested by Kevin) and adjusted the error message on job->user_paused (as suggested by John). I’ve kept the job->pause_count > 0 block because of the concern of nested event loops Kevin raised, and I’ve expanded its comment to explain the problem (I hope). Note also the new note in patch 1’s commit message, which explains how we’d ideally want block-job-complete to be a coroutine QMP handler so we could yield instead of polling. Furthermore, I’ve added the flaky test that I’ve also appended to the alternative series. Sometimes it fails 50/100 times for me, sometimes more like 20/100. (On master.) Maybe it won’t reproduce the problem for you at all. git-backport-diff against v1: Key: [----] : patches are identical [####] : number of functional differences between upstream/downstream patch [down] : patch is downstream-only The flags [FC] indicate (F)unctional and (C)ontextual differences, respectively 001/4:[0015] [FC] 'job: Add job_wait_unpaused() for block-job-complete' 002/4:[----] [--] 'test-blockjob: Test job_wait_unpaused()' 003/4:[----] [--] 'iotests/041: block-job-complete on user-paused job' 004/4:[down] 'iotests: Test completion immediately after drain' Max Reitz (4): job: Add job_wait_unpaused() for block-job-complete test-blockjob: Test job_wait_unpaused() iotests/041: block-job-complete on user-paused job iotests: Test completion immediately after drain include/qemu/job.h | 15 ++ blockdev.c | 3 + job.c | 53 +++++++ tests/unit/test-blockjob.c | 140 ++++++++++++++++++ tests/qemu-iotests/041 | 13 +- .../tests/mirror-complete-after-drain | 89 +++++++++++ .../tests/mirror-complete-after-drain.out | 14 ++ 7 files changed, 326 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100755 tests/qemu-iotests/tests/mirror-complete-after-drain create mode 100644 tests/qemu-iotests/tests/mirror-complete-after-drain.out -- 2.29.2
