Subject: [PATCH] linux-user: Run multi-threaded code on a single core
|
|
|
|
Running multi-threaded code can easily expose some of the fundamental
|
|
breakages in QEMU's design. It's just not a well supported scenario.
|
|
|
|
So if we pin the whole process to a single host CPU, we guarantee that
|
|
we will never have concurrent memory access actually happen. We can still
|
|
get scheduled away at any time, so it's no complete guarantee, but apparently
|
|
it reduces the odds well enough to get my test cases to pass.
|
|
|
|
This gets Java 1.7 working for me again on my test box.
