[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] aio_poll race condition.

Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] aio_poll race condition.

From: Remy Noel <address@hidden>

It is possible for an io_poll callback to be concurrently executed along
with an aio_set_fd_handlers. This can cause all sorts of problems, like
a NULL callback or a bad opaque pointer.
We fixes that by using an remove/insert RCU scheme.

Please note that i did not test the win32 version.

Remy Noel (3):
  aio-posix: Fix concurrent aio_poll/set_fd_handler.
  util/aio-posix: Use RCU for handler insertion.
  aio: Do not use list_lock as a sync mechanism for aio_handlers
    anymore.
