* main-loop: For tools, initialize timers as part of qemu_init_main_loop()Michael Roth2012-02-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases initializing the alarm timers can lead to non-negligable overhead from programs that link against qemu-tool.o. At least, setting a max-resolution WinMM alarm timer via mm_start_timer() (the current default for Windows) can increase the "tick rate" on Windows OSs and affect frequency scaling, and in the case of tools that run in guest OSs such has qemu-ga, the impact can be fairly dramatic (+20%/20% user/sys time on a core 2 processor was observed from an idle Windows XP guest). This patch doesn't address the issue directly (not sure what a good solution would be for Windows, or what other situations it might be noticeable), but it at least limits the scope of the issue to programs that "opt-in" to using the main-loop.c functions by only enabling alarm timers when qemu_init_main_loop() is called, which is already required to make use of those facilities, so existing users shouldn't be affected.

* main-loop: Fix SetEvent() on uninitialized handle on win32Michael Roth2012-02-011-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __attribute__((constructor)) init_main_loop() automatically get called if qemu-tool.o is linked in. On win32, this leads to a qemu_notify_event() call which attempts to SetEvent() on a HANDLE that won't be initialized until qemu_init_main_loop() is manually called, breaking qemu-tools.o programs on Windows at runtime. This patch checks for an initialized event handle before attempting to set it, which is analoguous to how we deal with an unitialized io_thread_fd in the posix implementation.

* main-loop: Add missing include fileStefan Weil2011-10-251-25/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | stdint.h defines the POSIX data types and is needed for MinGW-w64 (and maybe other hosts). v2: Instead of adding stdint.h directly, qemu-common.h is now included and duplicate include statements were removed.
