In near future the storage pool object lock will be released
during startPool and buildPool callback (in some backends). But
this means that another thread may acquire the pool object lock
and change its definition rendering the former thread access not
only stale definition but also access freed memory
(virStoragePoolObjAssignDef() will free old def when setting a
new one).
One way out of this would be to have the pool appear as active
because our code deals with obj->def and obj->newdef just fine.
But we can't declare a pool as active if it's not started or
still building up. Therefore, have a boolean flag that is very
similar and forces virStoragePoolObjAssignDef() to store new
definition in obj->newdef even for an inactive pool. In turn, we
have to move the definition to correct place when unsetting the
flag. But that's as easy as calling
virStoragePoolUpdateInactive().
Technically speaking, change made to
storageDriverAutostartCallback() is not needed because until
storage driver is initialized no storage API can run therefore
there can't be anyone wanting to change the pool's definition.
But I'm doing the change there for consistency anyways.
