This patch adds an AioContext parameter to xen_device_bind_event_channel()
and then uses aio_set_fd_handler() to set the callback rather than
qemu_set_fd_handler().

Interesting. I admit I was merely transcribing what qemu_set_fd_handler() passes without really looking into the values. Looking at the arguments that virtio-blk passes to aio_set_event_notifier() though, and what 'is_external' means, it would appear that setting it to true is probably the right thing to do. Do you want me to send a v2 of the series or can you fix it up?

I admit I was merely transcribing what qemu_set_fd_handler() passes without really looking into the values. Looking at the arguments that virtio-blk passes to aio_set_event_notifier() though, and what 'is_external' means, it would appear that setting it to true is probably the right thing to do. Do you want me to send a v2 of the series or can you fix it up? Hi, Handlers are invoked by the aio_poll() event loop. Some handlers are considered "external" in the sense that they submit new I/O requests from the guest or outside world. Others are considered "internal" in the sense that they are part of the block layer and not an entry point into the block layer. There are points where the block layer wants to run the event loop but new requests must not be submitted. In this case aio_disable_external() will be called so that "external" handlers are not processed. For example, see virtio's virtio_queue_aio_set_host_notifier_handler(). This is the virtqueue kick ioeventfd and it shouldn't be processed when aio_disable_external() has been called.

Thanks for the explanation Stefan. Xen event channels/shared rings should indeed be considered as external sources.
