Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 2/4] rpc: Discard non-blocking calls only when necessary

Currently, non-blocking calls are either sent immediately or discarded in case sending would block. This was implemented based on the assumption that the non-blocking keepalive call is not needed as there are other calls in the queue which would keep the connection alive. However, if those calls are no-reply calls (such as those carrying stream data), the remote party knows the connection is alive but since we don't get any reply from it, we think the connection is dead. This is most visible in tunnelled migration. If it happens to be longer than keepalive timeout (30s by default), it may be unexpectedly aborted because the connection is considered to be dead. With this patch, we only discard non-blocking calls when the last call with a thread is completed and thus there is no thread left to keep sending the remaining non-blocking calls. ---
