I'm seeing an intermittent hang on the s390 CI runner in the
bios-tables-test test. It looks like we've deadlocked because:
* the TPM device is waiting for data on its socket that never arrives,
and it's holding the iothread lock
* QEMU is therefore not making forward progress;
in particular it is unable to handle qtest queries/responses
* the test binary thread 1 is waiting to get a response to its
qtest command, which is not going to arrive
* test binary thread 3 (tpm_emu_ctrl_thread) is has hit an
assertion and is trying to kill QEMU via qtest_kill_qemu()
* qtest_kill_qemu() is only a "SIGTERM and wait", so will wait
forever, because QEMU won't respond to the SIGTERM while it's
blocked waiting for the TPM device to release the iothread lock
* because the ctrl-thread is waiting for QEMU to exit, it's never
going to send the data that would unblock the TPM device emulation

This here seems to be the root cause. An unknown control channel command was
received from the TPM emulator backend by the control channel thread and we end
up in g_assert_not_reached().
https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/tests/qtest/tpm-emu.c#L189
ret = qio_channel_read(ioc, (char *)&cmd, sizeof(cmd), NULL);
if (ret <= 0) {
break;
}
cmd = be32_to_cpu(cmd);
switch (cmd) {
[...]
default:
g_debug("unimplemented %u", cmd);
g_assert_not_reached(); <------------------
}
I will run this test case in an endless loop on an x86_64 host and see what we
get there ...
