migration: Fix race on qemu_file_shutdown()
In qemu_file_shutdown(), there's a possible race if with current order of
operation. There're two major things to do:
(1) Do real shutdown() (e.g. shutdown() syscall on socket)
(2) Update qemufile's last_error
We must do (2) before (1) otherwise there can be a race condition like:
page receiver other thread
------------- ------------
qemu_get_buffer()
do shutdown()
returns 0 (buffer all zero)
(meanwhile we didn't check this retcode)
try to detect IO error
last_error==NULL, IO okay
install ALL-ZERO page
set last_error
--> guest crash!
To fix this, we can also check retval of qemu_get_buffer(), but not all
APIs can be properly checked and ultimately we still need to go back to
qemu_file_get_error(). E.g. qemu_get_byte() doesn't return error.
Maybe some day a rework of qemufile API is really needed, but for now keep
using qemu_file_get_error() and fix it by not allowing that race condition
to happen. Here shutdown() is indeed special because the last_error was
emulated. For real -EIO errors it'll always be set when e.g. sendmsg()
error triggers so we won't miss those ones, only shutdown() is a bit tricky
here.
