From 068a5ea02f62853116788a2c42d8851a94bb7567 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Emilio G. Cota" Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2018 05:13:35 -0400 Subject: qom: convert the CPU list to RCU Iterating over the list without using atomics is undefined behaviour, since the list can be modified concurrently by other threads (e.g. every time a new thread is created in user-mode). Fix it by implementing the CPU list as an RCU QTAILQ. This requires a little bit of extra work to traverse list in reverse order (see previous patch), but other than that the conversion is trivial.
