68 /* Used to avoid unnecessary event_notifier_set calls in aio_notify;
69 * accessed with atomic primitives. If this field is 0, everything
70 * (file descriptors, bottom halves, timers) will be re-evaluated
71 * before the next blocking poll(), thus the event_notifier_set call
72 * can be skipped. If it is non-zero, you may need to wake up a
73 * concurrent aio_poll or the glib main event loop, making
74 * event_notifier_set necessary.
76 * Bit 0 is reserved for GSource usage of the AioContext, and is 1
77 * between a call to aio_ctx_prepare and the next call to aio_ctx_check.
78 * Bits 1-31 simply count the number of active calls to aio_poll
79 * that are in the prepare or poll phase.
81 * The GSource and aio_poll must use a different mechanism because
82 * there is no certainty that a call to GSource's prepare callback
83 * (via g_main_context_prepare) is indeed followed by check and
84 * dispatch. It's not clear whether this would be a bug, but let's
85 * play safe and allow it---it will just cause extra calls to
86 * event_notifier_set until the next call to dispatch.
88 * Instead, the aio_poll calls include both the prepare and the
89 * dispatch phase, hence a simple counter is enough for them.

206 * The caller of aio_notify will usually call aio_poll again very soon,

222 * every aio_poll() or g_main_context_iteration() in order to avoid
223 * busy waiting. This event_notifier_test_and_clear() cannot be done

265 * Canceling execution of a bottom half undoes the effect of calls to
266 * qemu_bh_schedule without freeing its resources yet. While cancellation
267 * itself is also wait-free and thread-safe, it can of course race with the
268 * loop that executes bottom halves unless you are holding the iothread
