When VSync is enabled and the system activates watchdog policy, there are 2
possible flows
related to driver stopping:
First one is regular PnP stop (for example, on disable), on stop the driver
waits until thread
finishes and the thread is able to complete all the operations, in the
worst case it will take
some time until thread allocates all the pending drawables and sends them
down.
Second one is forced stop due to long processing of presentation callback.
We do
our best to avoid this, but this is still possible, at least in theory. In
this case OS
may not not wait until the driver completes stop flow and can activate
fallback
mode and make switch to VGA mode. If the thread is processing outstanding
drawables, it needs to allocate memory (forced) and may pend until some
previously allocated
objects must be reported by QEMU/spice server to the guest. As the switch
to VGA
already happened, QEMU does not report them (assuming the guest does need
this,
which is completely correct in case of regular stop). At the moment of VGA
switch the
thread can be in the middle of allocation, so the driver shall know to
abort the allocation if
stop flow already started.

BTW, In earlier notes you mentioned possibility to use VGA memory as
alternate area for
objects allocation. I think that in stop flow due to watchdog the VGA area
may be used by
fallback video engine as frame buffer and this can corrupt the memory arena
managed by mspace code.
