From d246ea5039fd6d5344becd0943fcbb7f8e6bbfe7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Xu Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2020 17:27:20 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] migration/postcopy: Release fd before going into 'postcopy-pause' Logically below race could trigger with the old code: test program migration thread ------------ ---------------- wait_until('postcopy-pause') postcopy_pause() set_state('postcopy-pause') do_postcopy_recover() arm s->to_dst_file with new fd release s->to_dst_file [1] Here [1] could have released the just-installed recoverying channel. Then the migration could hang without really resuming. Instead, it should be very safe to release the fd before setting the state into 'postcopy-pause', because there's no reason for any other thread to touch it during 'postcopy-active'. Dave reported a very rare postcopy recovery hang that the migration-test program waited for the migration to complete in migrate_postcopy_complete(). We do suspect it's the same thing that we're gonna fix here. Hard to tell. However since we've noticed this, fix this irrelevant of the hang report.
