The functions running under BQL also take care of modifying the block graph, by using drain and/or aio_context_acquire/release. This makes it very confusing to understand where each function runs, and what assumptions it provided with regards to thread safety. We call the functions running under BQL "global state (GS) API", and distinguish them from the thread-safe "I/O API". The aim of this series is to split the relevant block headers in global state and I/O sub-headers. The division will be done in this way: header.h will be split in header-global-state.h, header-io.h and header-common.h. The latter will just contain the data structures needed by header-global-state and header-io, and common helpers that are neither in GS nor in I/O. header.h will remain for legacy and to avoid changing all includes in all QEMU c files, but will only include the two new headers. No function shall be added in header.c . Once we split all relevant headers, it will be much easier to see what uses the AioContext lock and remove it, which is the overall main goal of this and other series that I posted/will post. In addition to splitting the relevant headers shown in this series, it is also very helpful splitting the function pointers in some block structures, to understand what runs under AioContext lock and what doesn't. This is what patches 21-27 do. Each function in the GS API will have an assertion, checking that it is always running under BQL. I/O functions are instead thread safe (or so should be), meaning that they *can* run under BQL, but also in an iothread in another AioContext. Therefore they do not provide any assertion, and need to be audited manually to verify the correctness. Adding assetions has helped finding 2 bugs already, as shown in my series "Migration: fix missing iothread locking". Tested this series by running unit tests, qemu-iotests and qtests (x86_64). Some functions in the GS API are used everywhere but not properly tested. Therefore their assertion is never actually run in the tests, so despite my very careful auditing, it is not impossible to exclude that some will trigger while actually using QEMU. Patch 1 introduces qemu_in_main_thread(), the function used in all assertions. This had to be introduced otherwise all unit tests would fail, since they run in the main loop but use the code in stubs/iothread.c Patches 2-27 (with the exception of patch 9-10, that are an additional assert) are all structured in the same way: first we split the header and in the next (or same, if small) patch we add assertions. Patch 28-31 take care instead of the block layer permission API, fixing some bugs where they are used in I/O functions. Next steps once this get reviewed: 1) audit the GS API and replace the AioContext lock with drains, or remove them when not necessary (requires further discussion). 2) [optional as it should be already the case] audit the I/O API and check that thread safety is guaranteed In order to keep this series a little bit smaller, move some refactoring patches in another series, "block: minor refactoring in preparation to the block layer API split". Based-on: <20211124063640.3118897-1-eesposit@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Emanuele Giuseppe Esposito --- v5 -> v6: * In short, apply all Hanna's comments. More in details, the following functions in the following headers have been moved: block-backend: blk_replace_bs (to gs) blk_nb_sectors (to io) blk_name (to io) blk_set_perm (to io) blk_get_perm (to io) blk_drain (to io) blk_abort_aio_request (to io) blk_make_empty (to gs) blk_invalidate_cache (was in io, but had GS assertion) blk_aio_cancel (to gs) block: bdrv_replace_child_bs (to gs) bdrv_get_device_name (to io) bdrv_get_device_or_node_name (to io) bdrv_drained_end_no_poll (to io) bdrv_block_status (was in io, but had GS assertion) bdrv_drain (to io) bdrv_co_drain (to io) bdrv_make_zero (was in GS, but did not have the assertion) bdrv_save_vmstate (to io) bdrv_load_vmstate (to io) bdrv_aio_cancel_async (to io) block_int: bdrv_get_parent_name (to io) bdrv_apply_subtree_drain (to io) bdrv_unapply_subtree_drain (to io) bdrv_co_copy_range_from (was in io, but had GS assertion) bdrv_co_copy_range_to (was in io, but had GS assertion) ->bdrv_save_vmstate (to io) ->bdrv_load_vmstate (to io) coding style (assertion after definitions): bdrv_save_vmstate bdrv_load_vmstate block_job_next block_job_get new patches: block.c: modify .attach and .detach callbacks of child_of_bds introduce pre_run as JobDriver callback to handle bdrv_co_amend usage of permission function leave blk_set/get_perm as a TODO in fuse.c make sure bdrv_co_invalidate_cache does not use permissions if BQL is not held minor changes: put back TODO for include block/block.h in block-backend-common.h rebase on kwolf/block branch modify where are used assert_bdrv_graph_writable, due to rebase v4 -> v5: * Moved the following functions from block-io to block-global-state (+ assertion): - bdrv_apply_auto_read_only - bdrv_can_set_read_only * Moved the following functions from block-backend-io to block-backend-global-state (+ assertion): - blk_ioctl * added patch 4 to distinguish assertions added to static functions in block.c * block/coroutines: it seems that blk_co_do_ioctl and blk_do_ioctl are global state too v3 -> v4: * blockdev.h (patch 14): blockdev_mark_auto_del, blockdev_auto_del and blk_legacy_dinfo as GS API. * add copyright header to block.h, block-io.h and block-global-state.h * rebase on current master (c5b2f55981) v2 -> v3: * rename "graph API" into "global state API" * change order of patches, block.h comes before block-backend.h * change GS and I/O comment headers to avoid redundancy, all other headers refer to block-global-state.h and block-io.h * fix typo on GS and I/O headers * use assert instead of g_assert * move bdrv_pwrite_sync, bdrv_block_status and bdrv_co_copy_range_{from/to} to the I/O API * change assert_bdrv_graph_writable implementation, since we need to introduce additional drains * remove transactions API split * add preparation patch for blockdev.h (patch 13) * backup-top -> copy-on-write * change I/O comment in job.h into a better meaningful explanation * fix all warnings given by checkpatch, mostly due to /* */ to be split in separate lines * rebase on current master (c09124dcb8), and split the following new functions: blk_replace_bs (I/O) bdrv_bsc_is_data (I/O) bdrv_bsc_invalidate_range (I/O) bdrv_bsc_fill (I/O) bdrv_new_open_driver_opts (GS) blk_get_max_hw_iov (I/O) they are all added in patches 4 and 6. v1 -> v2: * remove the iothread locking bug fix, and send it as separate patch * rename graph API -> global state API * better documented patch 1 (qemu_in_main_thread) * add and split all other block layer headers * fix warnings given by checkpatch on
