QEMU can stop a virtqueue by sending a VHOST_USER_GET_VRING_BASE request
to virtiofsd. As with all other vhost-user protocol messages, the thread
that runs the main event loop in virtiofsd takes the vu_dispatch lock in
write mode. This ensures that no other thread can access virtqueues or
memory tables at the same time.
In the case of VHOST_USER_GET_VRING_BASE, the main thread basically
notifies the queue thread that it should terminate and waits for its
termination:
main()
virtio_loop()
vu_dispatch_wrlock()
vu_dispatch()
vu_process_message()
vu_get_vring_base_exec()
fv_queue_cleanup_thread()
pthread_join()
Unfortunately, the queue thread ends up calling virtio_send_msg()
at some point, which itself needs to grab the lock:
fv_queue_thread()
g_list_foreach()
fv_queue_worker()
fuse_session_process_buf_int()
do_release()
lo_release()
fuse_reply_err()
send_reply()
send_reply_iov()
fuse_send_reply_iov_nofree()
fuse_send_msg()
virtio_send_msg()
vu_dispatch_rdlock() <-- Deadlock !
Simply have the main thread to release the lock before going to
sleep and take it back afterwards. A very similar patch was already
sent by Vivek Goyal sometime back:
https://listman.redhat.com/archives/virtio-fs/2021-January/msg00073.html
The only difference here is that this done in fv_queue_set_started()
because fv_queue_cleanup_thread() can also be called from virtio_loop()
without the lock being held.
