Doesn't work: This is a struct that is embedded at the start of CoroutineUContext, so while you can move it down a bit, you'll never get to the end of the actual struct used at runtime. > >> diff --git a/monitor/monitor.c b/monitor/monitor.c > >> index 50fb5b20d3..047a8fb380 100644 > >> --- a/monitor/monitor.c > >> +++ b/monitor/monitor.c > >> @@ -82,38 +82,32 @@ bool qmp_dispatcher_co_shutdown; > >> */ > >> bool qmp_dispatcher_co_busy; > >> > >> -/* > >> - * Protects mon_list, monitor_qapi_event_state, coroutine_mon, > >> - * monitor_destroyed. > >> - */ > >> +/* Protects mon_list, monitor_qapi_event_state, monitor_destroyed. */ > >> QemuMutex monitor_lock; > >> static GHashTable *monitor_qapi_event_state; > >> -static GHashTable *coroutine_mon; /* Maps Coroutine* to Monitor* */ > >> > >> MonitorList mon_list; > >> int mon_refcount; > >> static bool monitor_destroyed; > >> > >> +static Monitor **monitor_curp(Coroutine *co) > >> +{ > >> + static __thread Monitor *global_cur_mon; > >> + > >> + if (co == qmp_dispatcher_co) { > >> + return qemu_coroutine_local_storage(co); > >> + } > >> + return &global_cur_mon; > >> +} > > > > Like the other patch, this needs to be extended for HMP. global_cur_mon > > is never meant to be set. > > It is, for OOB commands.

So for a solution that wants to look generic, it might be better. But as long as we don't have a second user (not even in our imagination), I'm not sure how important it is to have something that looks generic.

It is a hot path for block device requests. To be more specific, the part that is executed when taking a coroutine from the pool or putting it back to the pool is. The code to create a coroutine from scratch or to actually free it may be less relevant.
