libxl: properly lock userdata store
Originally libxl user data store didn't have lock at all. There could be
such race condition as mentioned by Ian Jackson:
Task 1 Task 2
Creating the domain Trying to shut down
actually create domain
observe domid
start domain destruction
delete all userdata
destroy domain
store the userdata
*** forbidden state created: userdata exists but domain doesn't
*** userdata has been leaked
[ would now bomb out ]
This patch adds in proper locking to libxl user data store. The lock is
associated with a specific domain (i.e. a per-domain lock).
As for locking hierachy, we first take CTX lock (which is implemented
with pthread recursive mutex so even if the application has taken it
we're fine), then take the file lock. These locks are released in
reversed order.
A new libxl error code ERROR_LOCK_FAIL is introduced to describe failure
to acquire locks.
Also factor out libxl__userdata_{retrieve,store}, so that other
functions that already hold the lock can call them to manipulate
user data.
