[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/3] block: fix blk_aio_*() segfault when blk->root == NULL

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

Using bdrv_inc_in_flight(blk_bs(blk)) doesn't work since BlockBackend->root may
be NULL.

This patch series solves the issue by adding an BlockBackend->in_flight counter
so requests can be tracked even when there is no BlockDriverState.

This should fix the IDE and virtio-blk segfaults that have been encountered
when there is no BlockDriverState.

The patch is based on work by Kevin Wolf.

  block: test blk_aio_flush() with blk->root == NULL

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] block: add BlockBackend->in_flight counter

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

BlockBackend currently relies on BlockDriverState->in_flight to track
requests for blk_drain().  There is a corner case where
BlockDriverState->in_flight cannot be used though: blk->root can be NULL
when there is no medium.  This results in a segfault when the NULL
pointer is dereferenced.

Introduce a BlockBackend->in_flight counter for aio requests so it works
even when blk->root == NULL.

Based on a patch by Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/3] block: test blk_aio_flush() with blk->root == NULL

[Stefan Hajnoczi]

From: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>

This patch adds test cases for the scenario where blk_aio_flush() is
called on a BlockBackend with no root.  Calling drain afterwards should
complete the requests with -ENOMEDIUM.

This reverts commit 4da97120d51a4383aa96d741a2b837f8c4bbcd0b.

blk_aio_flush() now handles the blk->root == NULL case, so we no longer
need this workaround.

Want to include 2018?  Using a redhat.com address but a personal

Tested by applying the series out of order (2, 3, 1) - the new test 
fails after 2 (so even our workaround was not robust), fails after 3 
(expected there, because we revert the workaround), then finally passes 
after 1 (the correct fix with no workaround needed).  So for the series, 
you can add:

This only works if you are in the default AioContext, otherwise you can
run handlers for one AioContexts in two threads.

bdrv_dec_in_flight uses bdrv_wakeup and BDRV_POLL_WHILE to ensure that
this doesn't happen, so there would be more code that you have to copy
into block-backend.c.

Should aio_poll() assert that it's called in the right thread to make
sure we obey the rules?

Instead of copying, can't we generalise it into a POLL_WHILE(ctx,
wakeup, cond) and make BDRV_POLL_WHILE() a wrapper for that?

Yes, or even move bdrv_wakeup to AioContext would do.  We already have
block layer-specific fields such as the linux-aio state(*).

	(*) though now that linux-aio has been improved to do something
	    like epoll, there may be a better reason to place linux-aio
	    state in AioContext.
