135 * aio_bh_new: Allocate a new bottom half structure.
137 * Bottom halves are lightweight callbacks whose invocation is guaranteed
138 * to be wait-free, thread-safe and signal-safe. The #QEMUBH structure
139 * is opaque and must be allocated prior to its use.
141 QEMUBH *aio_bh_new(AioContext *ctx, QEMUBHFunc *cb, void *opaque);
144 * aio_notify: Force processing of pending events.
146 * Similar to signaling a condition variable, aio_notify forces
147 * aio_wait to exit, so that the next call will re-examine pending events.
148 * The caller of aio_notify will usually call aio_wait again very soon,
149 * or go through another iteration of the GLib main loop. Hence, aio_notify
150 * also has the side effect of recalculating the sets of file descriptors
151 * that the main loop waits for.
153 * Calling aio_notify is rarely necessary, because for example scheduling
154 * a bottom half calls it already.
156 void aio_notify(AioContext *ctx);
159 * aio_bh_poll: Poll bottom halves for an AioContext.
161 * These are internal functions used by the QEMU main loop.

163 * be called concurrently
165 int aio_bh_poll(AioContext *ctx);
168 * qemu_bh_schedule: Schedule a bottom half.
170 * Scheduling a bottom half interrupts the main loop and causes the
171 * execution of the callback that was passed to qemu_bh_new.
173 * Bottom halves that are scheduled from a bottom half handler are instantly
174 * invoked. This can create an infinite loop if a bottom half handler
175 * schedules itself.
177 * @bh: The bottom half to be scheduled.
179 void qemu_bh_schedule(QEMUBH *bh);
182 * qemu_bh_cancel: Cancel execution of a bottom half.
184 * Canceling execution of a bottom half undoes the effect of calls to
185 * qemu_bh_schedule without freeing its resources yet. While cancellation
186 * itself is also wait-free and thread-safe, it can of course race with the
187 * loop that executes bottom halves unless you are holding the iothread
188 * mutex. This makes it mostly useless if you are not holding the mutex.
190 * @bh: The bottom half to be canceled.
192 void qemu_bh_cancel(QEMUBH *bh);
195 *qemu_bh_delete: Cancel execution of a bottom half and free its resources.
197 * Deleting a bottom half frees the memory that was allocated for it by
198 * qemu_bh_new. It also implies canceling the bottom half if it was
199 * scheduled.
200 * This func is async. The bottom half will do the delete action at the finial
201 * end.
203 * @bh: The bottom half to be deleted.
