When qemu_open is passed a filename of the "/dev/fdset/nnn"
format (where nnn is the fdset ID), an fd with matching access
mode flags will be searched for within the specified monitor
fd set.  If the fd is found, a dup of the fd will be returned
from qemu_open.

Each fd set has a reference count.  The purpose of the reference
count is to determine if an fd set contains file descriptors that
have open dup() references that have not yet been closed.  It is
incremented on qemu_open and decremented on qemu_close.  It is
not until the refcount is zero that file desriptors in an fd set
can be closed.  If an fd set has dup() references open, then we
must keep the other fds in the fd set open in case a reopen
of the file occurs that requires an fd with a different access
mode.

qemu_dup() is probably not a good name. We'll want to use it when we
need to get a wrapper around dup(). And I suspect that we will need it
for making bdrv_reopen() compatible with fdset refcounting.


Do you you have a suggestion for a name?

qemu_open() is supposed to add O_CLOEXEC by itself, so I think we should
execute the then branch unconditionally (or we would have to change the
qemu_dup() call below to add it - but the fact that O_CLOEXEC isn't even
necessarily defined doesn't help with that).

Sure I can modify this to always add O_CLOEXEC.  (I know you mentioned
this before but I think I interpreted the comment as a question to others.)

Do you also want me to modify qemu_open to always add O_CLOEXEC?


My mistake.. it's always set in qemu_open already.
