Hi~ jason.

I tried a lot of ways to make it run in compare thread, but it not work.

Because that:
void g_main_context_push_thread_default (GMainContext *context);
Acquires context and sets it as the thread-default context for the current thread.

So, this function g_main_context_push_thread_default() just can set thread-default context, not the global default context. and I can't find a function to set global default context in glib. The qemu's QIOChannel uses g_source_attach(source, NULL); to attach GSource.
g_source_attach (GSource *source,
                 GMainContext *context);

context
a GMainContext (if NULL, the default context will be used).

But he not say "the default context" is global default context or thread-default context.
So I read glib codes find that:
guint
g_source_attach (GSource *source,
                 GMainContext *context)
{
.....
if (!context)
    context = g_main_context_default ();
.....
}

g_main_context_default ()
Returns the global default main context.

So...I think we can't make qemu_chr_add_handlers() run in colo thread in this way. Do you have any comments about that?

How about (like I suggest previously) just use

g_souce_attach(x, g_main_context_get_thread_default());

in qemu's QIOChannel code?




I feel it seems can work, and will try it.
but I don't know how this change in qemu's QIOChannel code
will affect the other code. needs other people confirm it?

Yes, we need convince them. I believe we don't do this in the past is because there's no users.

If no affect and works good,I will send a independent patch
for this.


Right, if it works, please send a RFC and explain why it is needed.

Thanks
