[PATCH 2/2] qemu: Use virEventThreadStop() in qemuProcessStop()

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

 



Currently, qemuProcessStop() unlocks given domain object right in
the middle of cleanup process. This is dangerous because there
might be another thread which is executing virDomainObjListAdd().
And since the domain object is on the list of domain objects AND
by the time qemuProcessStop() unlocks it the object is also
marked as inactive, the other thread acquires the lock and
switches vm->def pointer.

The unlocking of domain object is needed though, to allow even
processing thread finish its queue. Well, the processing can be
done before any cleanup is attempted.

Therefore, use freshly introduced virEventThreadStop() to join
the event thread and drop lock/unlock from the middle of
qemuProcessStop().
