[PATCH 0/6] virtio: refactor host notifiers
The benifit is we don't use event_notifier_set_handler even in non-dataplane
now, which in turn makes virtio-blk and virtio-scsi follow block layer aio
context semantics. Specifically, I/O requests must come from
blk_get_aio_context(blk) events, rather than iohandler_get_aio_context(), so
that bdrv_drained_begin/end will work as expected.
Patch 4 reverts the hack (ab27c3b5e7) we added for 2.6. Lately, commit
b880481579 added another pair of bdrv_drained_begin/end so the crash cannot
happen even without ab27c3b5e7, but in order to avoid leaking requests, patch
two is still a must.
Fam Zheng (4):
virtio: Add typedef for handle_output
virtio: Always use aio path to set host handler
virtio: Drop the unused virtio_queue_set_host_notifier_fd_handler code
Revert "mirror: Workaround for unexpected iohandler events during
completion"
