The difference between these two functions: - virtio_notify() uses the interrupt code path (MSI or classic IRQs) - virtio_notify_irqfd() uses guest notifiers (irqfds) virtio_notify() can only be called with the BQL held because the interrupt code path requires the BQL. Device models use virtio_notify_irqfd() from IOThreads since the BQL is not held. The two functions can be unified by pushing down the if (qemu_in_iothread()) check from virtio-blk and virtio-scsi into core virtio code. This is in preparation for the next commit that will add irqfd support to virtio_notify_config() and where it's unattractive to introduce another irqfd-only API for device model callers.
