[PATCH] qemu_agent: fix deadlock in qemuProcessHandleAgentEOF

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We shutdown a VM A by qemu agent,meanwhile an agent EOF
of VM A happened, there's a chance that deadlock occurred:

qemuProcessHandleAgentEOF in main thread
A)  priv->agent = NULL; //A happened before B

    //deadlock when we get agent lock which's held by worker thread
    qemuAgentClose(agent);

qemuDomainObjExitAgent called by qemuDomainShutdownFlags in worker thread
B)  hasRefs = virObjectUnref(priv->agent); //priv->agent is NULL, return false

    if (hasRefs)
        virObjectUnlock(priv->agent); //agent lock will not be released here

So I close agent first, then set priv->agent NULL to fix the deadlock.
