[PATCH v3 06/20] util: set the name for the 'main' thread
Posted by Daniel P. Berrangé 2 weeks, 3 days ago
The default main thread name is undefined, so use a constructor to
explicitly set it to 'main'. This constructor is marked to run early
as the thread name is intended to be used in error reporting / logs
which may be triggered very early in QEMU execution.
