qemu-thread: fix qemu_event without futexes
This had a possible deadlock that was visible with rcutorture. qemu_event_set qemu_event_wait ---------------------------------------------------------------- cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock futex_wait: value == BUSY xchg reads BUSY, writes SET futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait <deadlock> The fix is simply to avoid condvar tricks and do the obvious locking around pthread_cond_broadcast: qemu_event_set qemu_event_wait ---------------------------------------------------------------- cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock futex_wait: value == BUSY xchg reads BUSY, writes SET futex_wake: pthread_mutex_lock (blocks) futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait (mutex unlocked) futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast futex_wake: pthread_mutex_unlock futex_wait: pthread_mutex_unlock Cc: qemu-stable@nongnu.org Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
