* qemu-thread: add per-thread atexit functionsPaolo Bonzini2015-01-131-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Destructors are the main additional feature of pthread TLS compared to __thread. If we were using C++ (hint, hint!) we could have used thread-local objects with a destructor. Since we are not, instead, we add a simple Notifier-based API. Note that the notifier must be per-thread as well. We can add a global list as well later, perhaps. The Win32 implementation has some complications because a) detached threads used not to have a QemuThreadData; b) the main thread does not go through win32_start_routine, so we have to use atexit too.

* qemu-thread: add QemuEventPaolo Bonzini2013-10-171-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This emulates Win32 manual-reset events using futexes or conditional variables. Typical ways to use them are with multi-producer, single-consumer data structures, to test for a complex condition whose elements come from different threads: for (;;) { qemu_event_reset(ev); ... test complex condition ... if (condition is true) { break; } qemu_event_wait(ev); } Or more efficiently (but with some duplication): ... evaluate condition ... while (!condition) { qemu_event_reset(ev); ... evaluate condition ... if (!condition) { qemu_event_wait(ev); ... evaluate condition ... } } QemuEvent provides a very fast userspace path in the common case when no other thread is waiting, or the event is not changing state.
