system/cpus: rename qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() to bql_lock() The Big QEMU Lock (BQL) has many names and they are confusing. The actual QemuMutex variable is called qemu_global_mutex but it's commonly referred to as the BQL in discussions and some code comments. The locking APIs, however, are called qemu_mutex_lock_iothread() and qemu_mutex_unlock_iothread(). The "iothread" name is historic and comes from when the main thread was split into into KVM vcpu threads and the "iothread" (now called the main loop thread). I have contributed to the confusion myself by introducing a separate --object iothread, a separate concept unrelated to the BQL. The "iothread" name is no longer appropriate for the BQL. Rename the locking APIs to: - void bql_lock(void) - void bql_unlock(void) - bool bql_locked(void) There are more APIs with "iothread" in their names. Subsequent patches will rename them. There are also comments and documentation that will be updated in later patches.

main-loop: introduce qemu_mutex_iothread_locked This function will be used to avoid recursive locking of the iothread lock whenever address_space_rw/ld/st are called with the BQL held, which is almost always the case. Tracking whether the iothread is owned is very cheap (just use a TLS variable) but requires some care because now the lock must always be taken with qemu_mutex_lock_iothread(). Previously this wasn't the case. Outside TCG mode this is not a problem. In TCG mode, we need to be careful and avoid the "prod out of compiled code" step if already in a VCPU thread. This is easily done with a check on current_cpu, i.e. qemu_in_vcpu_thread(). Hopefully, multithreaded TCG will get rid of the whole logic to kick VCPUs whenever an I/O event occurs!

async: the main AioContext is only "current" if under the BQL If we want to wake up a coroutine from a worker thread, aio_co_wake() currently does not work. In that scenario, aio_co_wake() calls aio_co_enter(), but there is no current AioContext and therefore qemu_get_current_aio_context() returns the main thread. aio_co_wake() then attempts to call aio_context_acquire() instead of going through aio_co_schedule(). The default case of qemu_get_current_aio_context() was added to cover synchronous I/O started from the vCPU thread, but the main and vCPU threads are quite different. The main thread is an I/O thread itself, only running a more complicated event loop; the vCPU thread instead is essentially a worker thread that occasionally calls qemu_mutex_lock_iothread(). It is only in those critical sections that it acts as if it were the home thread of the main AioContext. Therefore, this patch detaches qemu_get_current_aio_context() from iothreads, which is a useless complication. The AioContext pointer is stored directly in the thread-local variable, including for the main loop. Worker threads (including vCPU threads) optionally behave as temporary home threads if they have taken the big QEMU lock, but if that is not the case they will always schedule coroutines on remote threads via aio_co_schedule(). With this change, the stub qemu_mutex_iothread_locked() must be changed from true to false. The previous value of true was needed because the main thread did not have an AioContext in the thread-local variable, but now it does have one.
