[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 for-2.11 2/4] coroutine: abort if we try to schedule or enter a pending coroutine

[Jeff Cody]

The previous patch fixed a race condition, in which there were
coroutines being executing doubly, or after coroutine deletion.

We can detect common scenarios when this happens, and print an error
message and abort before we corrupt memory / data, or segfault.

This patch will abort if an attempt to enter a coroutine is made while
it is currently pending execution, either in a specific AioContext bh,
or pending execution via a timer.  It will also abort if a coroutine
is scheduled, before a prior scheduled run has occured.

We cannot rely on the existing co->caller check for recursive re-entry
to catch this, as the coroutine may run and exit with
COROUTINE_TERMINATE before the scheduled coroutine executes.

(This is the scenario that was occuring and fixed in the previous
patch).
