[PATCH 2/7] block: Manipulate children list in .attach/.detach
Posted by Hanna Reitz 4 years, 3 months ago
The children list is specific to BDS parents.  We should not modify it
in the general children modification code, but let BDS parents deal with
it in their .attach() and .detach() methods.

This also has the advantage that a BdrvChild is removed from the
children list before its .bs pointer can become NULL.  BDS parents
generally assume that their children's .bs pointer is never NULL, so
this is actually a bug fix.

The following comment become stale. We should remove it too. With comment removed:

Interesting that nor child_root neither child_job do similar things in .attach / .detach ... Should we do something with it?

Well, it’s up to them, I thought. :)

A BB only has a single child, so it doesn’t need a list.  Jobs do have 
their own child list (BlockJob.nodes).  I thought a bit about this when 
writing this series, and I figured perhaps they don’t need to care about 
that in .attach() and .detach(), because they don’t really expect nodes 
to be detached or attached anyway; child_job.stay_at_node is true, after 
all.
