From: Bin Wu <wu.wu...@huawei.com> The error scenario is as follow: coroutine C1 enters C2, C2 yields back to C1, then C1 ternimates and the related coroutine memory becomes invalid. After a while, the C2 coroutine is entered again. At this point, C1 is used as a parameter passed to qemu_co_queue_run_restart. Therefore, qemu_co_queue_run_restart accesses an invalid memory and a segfault error ocurrs.
The qemu_co_queue_run_restart function re-enters coroutines waiting in the co_queue. However, this function should be only used int the qemu_coroutine_enter context. Only in this context, when the current coroutine gets execution control again(after the execution of qemu_coroutine_switch), we can restart the target coutine because the target coutine has yielded back to the current coroutine or it has terminated. First we want to put qemu_co_queue_run_restart in qemu_coroutine_enter, but we find we can not access the target coroutine if it terminates.
