Yury Kotov 3dcc9c6ec4 qemu-thread: Add qemu_cond_timedwait
The new function is needed to implement conditional sleep for CPU
throttling. It's possible to reuse qemu_sem_timedwait, but it's more
difficult than just add qemu_cond_timedwait.

Also moved compute_abs_deadline function up the code to reuse it in
qemu_cond_timedwait_impl win32.

Peter Maydell ca95173c7f include/qemu/thread.h: Document qemu_thread_atexit* API
Add documentation for the qemu_thread_atexit_add() and
qemu_thread_atexit_remove() functions.

We include a (previously undocumented) constraint that notifiers
may not be called if a thread is exiting because the entire
process is exiting. This is fine for our current use because
the callers use it only for cleaning up resources which go away
on process exit (memory, Win32 fibers), and we will need the
flexibility for the new posix implementation.

Emilio G. Cota cb764d0665 qsp: track BQL callers explicitly
The BQL is acquired via qemu_mutex_lock_iothread(), which makes
the profiler assign the associated wait time (i.e. most of
BQL wait time) entirely to that function. This loses the original
call site information, which does not help diagnose BQL contention.
Fix it by tracking the callers explicitly.

Emilio G. Cota fe9959a275 qsp: QEMU's Synchronization Profiler
The goal of this module is to profile synchronization primitives (i.e.
mutexes, recursive mutexes and condition variables) so that scalability
issues can be quickly diagnosed.

Sync primitives are profiled by QSP based on the vaddr of the object accessed
as well as the call site (file:line_nr). That means the same object called
from two different call sites will be tracked in separate entries, which
might be reported together or separately (see subsequent commit on
call site coalescing).

Some perf numbers:

Host: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz
Command: taskset -c 0 tests/atomic_add-bench -d 5 -m

- Before: 54.80 Mops/s
- After:  54.75 Mops/s

That is, a negligible slowdown due to the now indirect call to
qemu_mutex_lock. Note that using a branch instead of an indirect
call introduces a more severe slowdown (53.65 Mops/s, i.e. 2% slowdown).

Enabling the profiler (with -p, added in this series) is more interesting:

- No profiling: 54.75 Mops/s
- W/ profiling: 12.53 Mops/s

That is, a 4.36X slowdown.

We can break down this slowdown by removing the get_clock calls or
the entry lookup:

- No profiling:     54.75 Mops/s
- W/o get_clock:    25.37 Mops/s
- W/o entry lookup: 19.30 Mops/s
- W/ profiling:     12.53 Mops/s

Paolo Bonzini e70372fcaf lockable: add QemuLockable
QemuLockable is a polymorphic lock type that takes an object and
knows which function to use for locking and unlocking.  The
implementation could use C11 _Generic, but since the support is
not very widespread I am instead using __builtin_choose_expr and
__builtin_types_compatible_p, which are already used by
include/qemu/atomic.h.

QemuLockable can be used to implement lock guards, or to pass around
a lock in such a way that a function can release it and re-acquire it.
The next patch will do this for CoQueue.

Paolo Bonzini 51dee5e465 qemu-thread: introduce QemuLockCnt
A QemuLockCnt comprises a counter and a mutex, with primitives
to increment and decrement the counter, and to take and release the
mutex.  It can be used to do lock-free visits to a data structure
whenever mutexes would be too heavy-weight and the critical section
is too long for RCU.

This could be implemented simply by protecting the counter with the
mutex, but QemuLockCnt is harder to misuse and more efficient.

Paolo Bonzini 7911747bd4 rcu: add rcu library
This includes a (mangled) copy of the liburcu code.  The main changes
are: 1) removing dependencies on many other header files in liburcu; 2)
removing for simplicity the tentative busy waiting in synchronize_rcu,
which has limited performance effects; 3) replacing futexes in
synchronize_rcu with QemuEvents for Win32 portability.  The API is
the same as liburcu, so it should be possible in the future to require
liburcu on POSIX systems for example and use our copy only on Windows.

Among the various versions available I chose urcu-mb, which is the
least invasive implementation even though it does not have the
fastest rcu_read_{lock,unlock} implementation.  The urcu flavor can
be changed later, after benchmarking.

Paolo Bonzini ef57137f1b qemu-thread: add per-thread atexit functions
Destructors are the main additional feature of pthread TLS compared
to __thread.  If we were using C++ (hint, hint!) we could have used
thread-local objects with a destructor.  Since we are not, instead,
we add a simple Notifier-based API.

Note that the notifier must be per-thread as well.  We can add a
global list as well later, perhaps.

The Win32 implementation has some complications because a) detached
threads used not to have a QemuThreadData; b) the main thread does
not go through win32_start_routine, so we have to use atexit too.

Paolo Bonzini c7c4d063f5 qemu-thread: add QemuEvent
This emulates Win32 manual-reset events using futexes or conditional
variables.  Typical ways to use them are with multi-producer,
single-consumer data structures, to test for a complex condition whose
elements come from different threads:

    for (;;) {
        qemu_event_reset(ev);
        ... test complex condition ...
        if (condition is true) {
            break;
        }
        qemu_event_wait(ev);
    }

Or more efficiently (but with some duplication):

    ... evaluate condition ...
    while (!condition) {
        qemu_event_reset(ev);
        ... evaluate condition ...
        if (!condition) {
            qemu_event_wait(ev);
            ... evaluate condition ...
        }
    }

QemuEvent provides a very fast userspace path in the common case when
no other thread is waiting, or the event is not changing state.
