[RFC PATCH] chardev: don't exit() straight away on C-a x
Posted by Alex Bennée 2 years, 6 months ago
While there are a number of uses in the code-base of the exit(0)
pattern it gets in the way of clean exit which can do all of it's
house-keeping. In particular it was reported that you can crash
plugins this way because TCG can still be running on other threads
when the atexit callback is called.

Use qemu_system_shutdown_request() instead. I did a gentle rename of
the runstate stub seeing as it now contains two functions.

That won't work with -no-shutdown, but you can just call qmp_quit() instead.

How does calling qmp_quit() fix --no-shutdown? Isn't it just a thin
wrapper around the qemu_system_shutdown_request()?

It first undoes the effect of -no-shutdown:

void qmp_quit(Error **errp)
{
     shutdown_action = SHUTDOWN_ACTION_POWEROFF;
     qemu_system_shutdown_request(SHUTDOWN_CAUSE_HOST_QMP_QUIT);
}

I guess this is it? I couldn't follow the chain of qemu_opts to find
what sort of change -no-shutdown made to the shutdown_action.

Yes, "-no-shutdown" is short for "-action shutdown=pause".  From there 
it goes process_runstate_actions -> qmp_marshal_set_action -> 
qmp_set_action, where it sets "shutdown_action = SHUTDOWN_ACTION_PAUSE".

Hmm this isn't a stub anymore, this is the user-mode implementation.

I'd rather have some shared user/ or meanwhile duplicate it in
both bsd-user/linux-user (even if the implementation is empty)
instead of a stub.
