Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com> pointed out that the coroutine
pool size heuristic is very conservative. Instead of halving
max_map_count, he suggested reserving 5,000 mappings for non-coroutine
users based on observations of guests he has access to.

The coroutine pool implementation can hit the Linux vm.max_map_count
limit, causing QEMU to abort with "failed to allocate memory for stack"
or "failed to set up stack guard page" during coroutine creation.
This happens because per-thread pools can grow to tens of thousands of
coroutines. Each coroutine causes 2 virtual memory areas to be created.
Eventually vm.max_map_count is reached and memory-related syscalls fail.
The per-thread pool sizes are non-uniform and depend on past coroutine
usage in each thread, so it's possible for one thread to have a large
pool while another thread's pool is empty.
Switch to a new coroutine pool implementation with a global pool that
grows to a maximum number of coroutines and per-thread local pools that
are capped at hardcoded small number of coroutines.
This approach does not leave large numbers of coroutines pooled in a
thread that may not use them again. In order to perform well it
amortizes the cost of global pool accesses by working in batches of
coroutines instead of individual coroutines.
The global pool is a list. Threads donate batches of coroutines to when
they have too many and take batches from when they have too few:
.-----------------------------------.
| Batch 1 | Batch 2 | Batch 3 | ... | global_pool
`-----------------------------------'
Each thread has up to 2 batches of coroutines:
.-------------------.
| Batch 1 | Batch 2 | per-thread local_pool (maximum 2 batches)
`-------------------'
The goal of this change is to reduce the excessive number of pooled
coroutines that cause QEMU to abort when vm.max_map_count is reached
without losing the performance of an adequately sized coroutine pool.

QEMU initializes preallocated backend memory as the objects are parsed from

Allow the initialization to occur in parallel (asynchronously). In order to
ensure optimal thread placement, asynchronous initialization requires prealloc

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.

Delete these functions because nothing calls these functions anymore.
I introduced these APIs in commit 98563fc3ec ("aio: add
aio_context_acquire() and aio_context_release()") in 2014. It's with a
sigh of relief that I delete these APIs almost 10 years later.
Thanks to Paolo Bonzini's vision for multi-queue QEMU, we got an
understanding of where the code needed to go in order to remove the
limitations that the original dataplane and the IOThread/AioContext
approach that followed it.
Emanuele Giuseppe Esposito had the splendid determination to convert
large parts of the codebase so that they no longer needed the AioContext
lock. This was a painstaking process, both in the actual code changes
required and the iterations of code review that Emanuele eked out of
Kevin and me over many months.
Kevin Wolf tackled multitudes of graph locking conversions to protect
in-flight I/O from run-time changes to the block graph as well as the
clang Thread Safety Analysis annotations that allow the compiler to
check whether the graph lock is being used correctly.
And me, well, I'm just here to add some pizzazz to the QEMU multi-queue
block layer :). Thank you to everyone who helped with this effort,

aio_context_acquire()/aio_context_release() has been replaced by
fine-grained locking to protect state shared by multiple threads. The
AioContext lock still plays the role of balancing locking in
AIO_WAIT_WHILE() and many functions in QEMU either require that the
AioContext lock is held or not held for this reason. In other words, the
AioContext lock is purely there for consistency with itself and serves
no real purpose anymore.
Stop actually acquiring/releasing the lock in
aio_context_acquire()/aio_context_release() so that subsequent patches
can remove callers across the codebase incrementally.
I have performed "make check" and qemu-iotests stress tests across
x86-64, ppc64le, and aarch64 to confirm that there are no failures as a
result of eliminating the lock.

The vhost-user-blk export implement AioContext switches in its drain
implementation. This means that on drain_begin, it detaches the server
from its AioContext and on drain_end, attaches it again and schedules
the server->co_trip coroutine in the updated AioContext.
However, nothing guarantees that server->co_trip is even safe to be
scheduled. Not only is it unclear that the coroutine is actually in a
state where it can be reentered externally without causing problems, but
with two consecutive drains, it is possible that the scheduled coroutine
didn't have a chance yet to run and trying to schedule an already
scheduled coroutine a second time crashes with an assertion failure.
Following the model of NBD, this commit makes the vhost-user-blk export
shut down server->co_trip during drain so that resuming the export means
creating and scheduling a new coroutine, which is always safe.
There is one exception: If the drain call didn't poll (for example, this
happens in the context of bdrv_graph_wrlock()), then the coroutine
didn't have a chance to shut down. However, in this case the AioContext
can't have changed; changing the AioContext always involves a polling
drain. So in this case we can simply assert that the AioContext is
unchanged and just leave the coroutine running or wake it up if it has
yielded to wait for the AioContext to be attached again.
