This is particularly useful when we abort in error_propagate(),
because there the stack backtrace doesn't lead to where the error was
created. Looks like this:
Unexpected error in parse_block_error_action() at .../qemu/blockdev.c:322:
qemu-system-x86_64: -drive if=none,werror=foo: 'foo' invalid write error action
Aborted (core dumped)
Note: to get this example output, I monkey-patched drive_new() to pass
&error_abort to blockdev_init().
To keep the error handling boiler plate from growing even more, all
error_setFOO() become macros expanding into error_setFOO_internal()
with additional __FILE__, __LINE__, __func__ arguments. Not exactly
pretty, but it works.
The macro trickery breaks down when you take the address of an
error_setFOO(). Fortunately, we do that in just one place: qemu-ga's
Windows VSS provider and requester DLL wants to call
error_setg_win32() through a function pointer "to avoid linking glib
to the DLL". Use error_setg_win32_internal() there. The use of the
function pointer is already wrapped in a macro, so the churn isn't
bad.
Code size increases by some 35KiB for me (0.7%). Tolerable. Could be
less if we passed relative rather than absolute source file names to
the compiler, or forwent reporting __func__.
Backports commit 1e9b65bb1bad51735cab6c861c29b592dccabf0e from qemu
Duplicated when commit 680d16d added error_set_errno(), and again when
commit 20840d4 added error_set_win32().
Make the original copy in error_set() reusable by factoring out
error_setv(), then rewrite error_set_errno() and error_set_win32() on
top of it.
Backports commit 552375088a832fd5945ede92d01f98977b4eca13 from qemu
To prepare for a generic internal cipher API, move the
built-in AES implementation into the crypto/ directory
Backports commit 6f2945cde60545aae7f31ab9d5ef29531efbc94f from qemu
The new bitmap_test_and_clear_atomic() function clears a range and
returns whether or not the bits were set.
Backports commit 36546e5b803f6e363906607307f27c489441fd15 from qemu
Use atomic_or() for atomic bitmaps where several threads may set bits at
the same time. This avoids the race condition between threads loading
an element, bitwise ORing, and then storing the element.
When setting all bits in a word we can avoid atomic ops and instead just
use an smp_mb() at the end.
Most bitmap users don't need atomicity so introduce new functions.
Backports commit 9f02cfc84b85929947b32fe1674fbc6a429f332a from qemu
ARM and probably the rest of the arches have significant memory leaks as
they have no release interface.
Additionally, DrMemory does not have 64-bit support and thus I can't
test the 64-bit version under Windows. Under Linux valgrind supports
both 32-bit and 64-bit but there are different macros and code for Linux
and Windows.
