In record/replay icount mode vCPU thread and iothread synchronize the execution using the checkpoints. vCPU thread processes the virtual timers and iothread processes all others. When iothread wants to wake up sleeping vCPU thread, it sends dummy queued work. Therefore it could be the following sequence of the events in record mode: - IO: sending dummy work - IO: processing timers - CPU: wakeup - CPU: clearing dummy work - CPU: processing virtual timers But due to the races in replay mode the sequence may change: - IO: sending dummy work - CPU: wakeup - CPU: clearing dummy work - CPU: sleeping again because nothing to do - IO: Processing timers - CPU: zzzz In this case vCPU will not wake up, because dummy work is not to be set up again. This patch tries to wake up the vCPU when it sleeps and the icount warp checkpoint isn't met. It means that vCPU has something to do, because there are no other reasons of non-matching warp checkpoint.
