[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] [Xen-devel] [PATCH V5] libxenstore: filter watch events in libxenstore when we unwatch
XenStore puts in queued watch events via a thread and notifies the user.
Sometimes xs_unwatch is called before all related message is read. The use
case is non-threaded libevent, we have two event A and B:
- Event A will destroy something and call xs_unwatch;
- Event B is used to notify that a node has changed in XenStore.
As the event is called one by one, event A can be handled before event B.
So on next xs_watch_read the user could retrieve an unwatch token and
a segfault occured if the token store the pointer of the structure
(ie: "backend:0xcafe").
To avoid problem with previous application using libXenStore, this behaviour
will only be enabled if XS_UNWATCH_FILTER is given to xs_open.

Modification between V4 and V5:
- Use tab instead of space for the indentation.
Modifications between V3 and V4:
- Rename XS_UNWATCH_SAFE to XS_UNWATCH_FILTER;
- Improve documentation;
- Fix sub-path checking in xs_unwatch.
Modifications between V2 and V3:
- Add XS_UNWATCH_SAFE;
- Rename xs_clear_watch_pipe to xs_maybe_clear_watch_pipe.
Modifications between V1 and V2:
- Add xs_clear_watch_pipe to avoid code duplication;
- Modify commit message by Ian Jackson;
- Rework list filtering.
