Usually, we let upper layers handle CPU pinning, because
pthread_setaffinity_np() (-> sched_setaffinity()) is blocked via
seccomp when starting QEMU with
-sandbox enable=on,resourcecontrol=deny
However, we want to configure and observe the CPU affinity of threads
from QEMU directly in some cases when the sandbox option is either not
enabled or not active yet.
So let's add a way to configure CPU pinning via
qemu_thread_set_affinity() and obtain CPU affinity via
qemu_thread_get_affinity() and implement them under POSIX using
pthread_setaffinity_np() + pthread_getaffinity_np().
Implementation under Windows is possible using SetProcessAffinityMask()
+ GetProcessAffinityMask(), however, that is left as future work.

POSIX specifies an absolute time for sem_timedwait(), it would be
affected if the system time is changing, but there is not a relative
time or monotonic clock version of sem_timedwait, so we cannot gain
from POSIX semaphore any more.
An alternative way is to use sem_trywait + usleep, maybe we can
remove CONFIG_SEM_TIMEDWAIT in this way? No, because some systems
(e.g. mac os) mark the sem_xxx API as deprecated.
So maybe remove the usage of POSIX semaphore and turn to use the
pthread variant for all systems looks better.

clang's C11 atomic_fetch_*() functions only take a C11 atomic type
pointer argument. QEMU uses direct types (int, etc) and this causes a
compiler error when a QEMU code calls these functions in a source file
that also included <stdatomic.h> via a system header file:
$ CC=clang CXX=clang++ ./configure ... && make
../util/async.c:79:17: error: address argument to atomic operation must be a pointer to _Atomic type ('unsigned int *' invalid)
Avoid using atomic_*() names in QEMU's atomic.h since that namespace is
used by <stdatomic.h>. Prefix QEMU's APIs with 'q' so that atomic.h
and <stdatomic.h> can co-exist. I checked /usr/include on my machine and
searched GitHub for existing "qatomic_" users but there seem to be none.
This patch was generated using:
$ git grep -h -o '\<atomic\(64\)\?_[a-z0-9_]\+' include/qemu/atomic.h | \
sort -u >/tmp/changed_identifiers
$ for identifier in $(</tmp/changed_identifiers); do

If any of these signals happen on macOS, they are not delivered to other
threads and signalfd_compat receives nothing. Indeed, POSIX reference
and sigprocmask(2) note that an attempt to block the signals results in
undefined behaviour. SEGV and FPE can't also be received by signalfd(2)
on Linux.
An ability to retrieve SIGBUS via signalfd(2) is used by QEMU for
memory preallocation therefore we can't unblock it without consequences.
But it's important to leave a remark that the signal is lost on macOS.

Our current implementation of qemu_thread_atexit* is broken on OSX.
This is because it works by cerating a piece of thread-specific
data with pthread_key_create() and using the destructor function
for that data to run the notifier function passed to it by
the caller of qemu_thread_atexit_add(). The expected use case
is that the caller uses a __thread variable as the notifier,
and uses the callback to clean up information that it is
keeping per-thread in __thread variables.
Unfortunately, on OSX this does not work, because on OSX
a __thread variable may be destroyed (freed) before the
pthread_key_create() destructor runs. (POSIX imposes no
ordering constraint here; the OSX implementation happens
to implement __thread variables in terms of pthread_key_create((),
whereas Linux uses different mechanisms that mean the __thread
variables will still be present when the pthread_key_create()
destructor is run.)
Fix this by switching to a scheme similar to the one qemu-thread-win32
uses for qemu_thread_atexit: keep the thread's notifiers on a
__thread variable, and run the notifiers on calls to
qemu_thread_exit() and on return from the start routine passed
to qemu_thread_start(). We do this with the pthread_cleanup_push()
API.
We take advantage of the qemu_thread_atexit_add() API
permission not to run thread notifiers on process exit to
avoid having to special case the main thread.

In qemu-thread-posix.c we have two implementations of the
various qemu_sem_* functions, one of which uses native POSIX
sem_* and the other of which emulates them with pthread conditions.
This is necessary because not all our host OSes support
sem_timedwait().
Instead of a hard-coded list of OSes which don't implement
sem_timedwait(), which gets out of date, make configure
test for the presence of the function and set a new
CONFIG_HAVE_SEM_TIMEDWAIT appropriately.
In particular, newer NetBSDs have sem_timedwait(), so this
commit will switch them over to using it. OSX still does
not have an implementation.

These trace events were very useful to help me to understand and find a

qemu_mutex_lock locked mutex 0x10905ad8
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc0, 0x2020c, 4)
qemu_mutex_unlock unlocked mutex 0x10905ad8
qemu_mutex_lock locked mutex 0x10905ad8
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc4, 0xa0000, 4)
qemu_mutex_unlock unlocked mutex 0x10905ad8
that also helped me to see the desired result after the fix:
qemu_mutex_lock locked mutex 0x10905ad8
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc0, 0x2000c, 4)
vfio_region_write (0001:03:00.0:region1+0xc4, 0xb0000, 4)
qemu_mutex_unlock unlocked mutex 0x10905ad8
So it could be a good idea to have these traces implemented. It's worth
mentioning that they should be surgically enabled during the debugging,
otherwise it can flood the trace logs with lock/unlock messages.
How to use it:

trace-event qemu_mutex_unlock on|off

Do not use the somewhat mysterious atomic_mb_read/atomic_mb_set,
instead make sure that the operations on QemuEvent are annotated
with the desired acquire and release semantics.
In particular, qemu_event_set wakes up the waiting thread, so it must
be a release from the POV of the waker (compare with qemu_mutex_unlock).
And it actually needs a full barrier, because that's the only thing that
provides something like a "load-release".
Use smp_mb_acquire until we have atomic_load_acquire and
atomic_store_release in atomic.h.

PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK is completely broken with respect to fork.
The way to safely do fork is to bring all threads to a quiescent
state by acquiring locks (either in callers---as we do for the
iothread mutex---or using pthread_atfork's prepare callbacks)
and then release them in the child.
The problem is that releasing error-checking locks in the child
fails under glibc with EPERM, because the mutex stores a different
owner tid than the duplicated thread in the child process. We
could make it work for locks acquired via pthread_atfork, by
recreating the mutex in the child instead of unlocking it
(we know that there are no other threads that could have taken
the mutex; but when the lock is acquired in fork's caller
that would not be possible.
The simplest solution is just to forgo error checking.

This had a possible deadlock that was visible with rcutorture.
qemu_event_set qemu_event_wait
----------------------------------------------------------------
cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY
futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock
futex_wait: value == BUSY
xchg reads BUSY, writes SET
futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast
futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait
<deadlock>
The fix is simply to avoid condvar tricks and do the obvious locking
around pthread_cond_broadcast:
qemu_event_set qemu_event_wait
----------------------------------------------------------------
cmpxchg reads FREE, writes BUSY
futex_wait: pthread_mutex_lock
futex_wait: value == BUSY
xchg reads BUSY, writes SET
futex_wake: pthread_mutex_lock
(blocks)
futex_wait: pthread_cond_wait
(mutex unlocked)
futex_wake: pthread_cond_broadcast
futex_wake: pthread_mutex_unlock
futex_wait: pthread_mutex_unlock

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.

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.

Fix following bugs in "fallback implementation of counting semaphores
with mutex+condvar" added in c166cb72f1:
- waiting threads are not restarted properly if more than one threads
are waiting unblock signals in qemu_sem_timedwait()
- possible missing pthread_cond_signal(3) calls when waiting threads
are returned by ETIMEDOUT
- fix an uninitialized variable
The problem is analyzed by and fix is provided by Noriyuki Soda.
Also put additional cleanup suggested by Laszlo Ersek:
- make QemuSemaphore.count unsigned (it won't be negative)
- check a return value of in pthread_cond_wait() in qemu_sem_wait()
