106 * aio_notify: Force processing of pending events.
108 * Similar to signaling a condition variable, aio_notify forces
109 * aio_wait to exit, so that the next call will re-examine pending events.
110 * The caller of aio_notify will usually call aio_wait again very soon,
111 * or go through another iteration of the GLib main loop. Hence, aio_notify
112 * also has the side effect of recalculating the sets of file descriptors
113 * that the main loop waits for.
115 * Calling aio_notify is rarely necessary, because for example scheduling
116 * a bottom half calls it already.

130 * Scheduling a bottom half interrupts the main loop and causes the
131 * execution of the callback that was passed to qemu_bh_new.
133 * Bottom halves that are scheduled from a bottom half handler are instantly
134 * invoked. This can create an infinite loop if a bottom half handler

144 * Canceling execution of a bottom half undoes the effect of calls to
145 * qemu_bh_schedule without freeing its resources yet. While cancellation
146 * itself is also wait-free and thread-safe, it can of course race with the
147 * loop that executes bottom halves unless you are holding the iothread
148 * mutex. This makes it mostly useless if you are not holding the mutex.

159 * scheduled.
