26 * Graph Lock API
27 * This API provides a rwlock used to protect block layer
28 * graph modifications like edge (BdrvChild) and node (BlockDriverState)
29 * addition and removal.
30 * Currently we have 1 writer only, the Main loop, and many
31 * readers, mostly coroutines running in other AioContext thus other threads.
33 * We distinguish between writer (main loop, under BQL) that modifies the
34 * graph, and readers (all other coroutines running in various AioContext),
35 * that go through the graph edges, reading
36 * BlockDriverState ->parents and->children.
38 * The writer (main loop) has an "exclusive" access, so it first waits for
39 * current read to finish, and then prevents incoming ones from
40 * entering while it has the exclusive access.
42 * The readers (coroutines in multiple AioContext) are free to
43 * access the graph as long the writer is not modifying the graph.
44 * In case it is, they go in a CoQueue and sleep until the writer
45 * is done.
47 * If a coroutine changes AioContext, the counter in the original and new
48 * AioContext are left intact, since the writer does not care where is the
49 * reader, but only if there is one.
50 * As a result, some AioContexts might have a negative reader count, to
51 * balance the positive count of the AioContext that took the lock.
52 * This also means that when an AioContext is deleted it may have a nonzero
53 * reader count. In that case we transfer the count to a global shared counter
54 * so that the writer is always aware of all readers.

65 * clang doesn't check consistency in locking annotations between forward
66 * declarations and the function definition. Having the annotation on the
67 * definition, but not the declaration in a header file, may give the reader
68 * a false sense of security because the condition actually remains unchecked
69 * for callers in other source files.
71 * Therefore, as a convention, for public functions, GRAPH_RDLOCK and
72 * GRAPH_WRLOCK annotations should be present only in the header file.

75 #define GRAPH_RDLOCK TSA_REQUIRES_SHARED(graph_lock)
78 * TSA annotations are not part of function types, so checks are defeated when
79 * using a function pointer. As a workaround, annotate function pointers with
80 * this macro that will require that the lock is at least taken while reading
81 * the pointer. In most cases this is equivalent to actually protecting the
82 * function call.

88 * register_aiocontext:
89 * Add AioContext @ctx to the list of AioContext.
90 * This list is used to obtain the total number of readers
91 * currently running the graph.
93 void register_aiocontext(AioContext *ctx);
96 * unregister_aiocontext:
97 * Removes AioContext @ctx to the list of AioContext.
99 void unregister_aiocontext(AioContext *ctx);
102 * bdrv_graph_wrlock:
103 * Start an exclusive write operation to modify the graph. This means we are
104 * adding or removing an edge or a node in the block layer graph. Nobody else
105 * is allowed to access the graph.
107 * Must only be called from outside bdrv_graph_co_rdlock.
109 * The wrlock can only be taken from the main loop, with BQL held, as only the
110 * main loop is allowed to modify the graph.
112 * This function polls. Callers must not hold the lock of any AioContext other
113 * than the current one.

118 * bdrv_graph_wrunlock:
119 * Write finished, reset global has_writer to 0 and restart
120 * all readers that are waiting.
122 void bdrv_graph_wrunlock(void) TSA_RELEASE(graph_lock) TSA_NO_TSA;
125 * bdrv_graph_co_rdlock:
126 * Read the bs graph. This usually means traversing all nodes in
127 * the graph, therefore it can't happen while another thread is
128 * modifying it.
129 * Increases the reader counter of the current aiocontext,
130 * and if has_writer is set, it means that the writer is modifying
131 * the graph, therefore wait in a coroutine queue.
132 * The writer will then wake this coroutine once it is done.
134 * This lock should be taken from Iothreads (IO_CODE() class of functions)
135 * because it signals the writer that there are some
136 * readers currently running, or waits until the current
137 * write is finished before continuing.
138 * Calling this function from the Main Loop with BQL held
139 * is not necessary, since the Main Loop itself is the only
140 * writer, thus won't be able to read and write at the same time.
141 * The only exception to that is when we can't take the lock in the
142 * function/coroutine itself, and need to delegate the caller (usually main
143 * loop) to take it and wait that the coroutine ends, so that
144 * we always signal that a reader is running.

152 * If the writer is waiting for reads to finish (has_writer == 1), signal
153 * the writer that we are done via aio_wait_kick() to let it continue.

186 * Calling this function tells TSA that we know that the lock is effectively
187 * taken even though we cannot prove it (yet) with GRAPH_RDLOCK. This can be
188 * useful in intermediate stages of a conversion to using the GRAPH_RDLOCK
