[PATCH v2 16/21] virtio-net: Use replay_schedule_bh_event for bhs that affect machine state
Posted by Alex Bennée 3 months, 1 week ago
From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>

The regular qemu_bh_schedule() calls result in non-deterministic
execution of the bh in record-replay mode, which causes replay failure.

Is this really the only way to fix this? I do not think
virtio has any business knowing about replay.
What does this API do, even? BH but not broken with replay?
Do we ever want replay broken? Why not fix qemu_bh_schedule?
And when we add another feature which we do not want to break
will we do foo_bar_replay_bh_schedule_event or what?

I agree with you. We need to do this (a couple of other hw
subsystems already do and likely some are still broken vs
replay and would need to be converted), but I think it's
mostly a case of bad naming. You're right the caller should
not know about replay at all, what it should be is whether
the event is for the target machine or the host harness,
same as timers are VIRTUAL / HOST.

So I think we just need to make a qemu_bh_schedule_<type>,
or qemu_bh_scheudle_event(... QEMU_EVENT_VIRTUAL/HOST/etc).
I had started on a conversion once but not completed it.
I could resurrect if there is agreement on the API?

Thanks,
Nick

Or just pass QEMUClockType?

Is this wider re-factoring something that can wait for the next
developer cycle?

I would certainly welcome it being cleaned up. The supported replay
devices are very piecemeal at the moment.

Could be a good idea. Although I'm not sure what to do with
all types, maybe we can restrict what is supported.

I would say so. It's not quite trivial to do nicely since
things are a bit tangled between util/async and replay.

I'll tidy up and post an RFC for how the new API might look.

Fundamentally it's virtio net, up to Jason. I don't like messy
APIs and people tend to get distracted and not fix them up
if one does not make this a blocker.

It seems it has been in the pull request from Alex Bennée.

Sorry I'd suibmitted the PR before I saw mst's update.

do you want me to drop the series for 9.1 and leave it in its current
(broken) state? Nick has already posted a suggestion for the API update
but it seems a bit late in the cycle to include it in the release.

Happy for objections, but FYI Michael did find the proposed API
tweak nicer, so shall we get these minimal fixes in for 9.1 then
switch them for next release?

Thanks,
