I missed, did you (where?) add a comment like "all APIs are thread-safe", or what is thread-safe?

May be nitpicking, but if we want block_copy_set_progress_meter to be threadsafe it should set s->progress under mutex. Or we should document that it's not threadsafe and called once.

The function reads task->bytes not under mutex.. It's safe, as only that function is modifying the field, and it's called once. Still, let's make critical section a little bit wider, just for simplicity. I mean, simple QEMU_LOCK_GUARD() at start of function.

Oops. seems block_copy_task_run misses block_copy_task_end() call befokre freeing the task. preexisting bug..

I looked through the whole file on top of the series, and it seems overall OK to me. I still don't really like additional atomics, but they probably should be refactored together with refactoring all status-getters into one block_copy_call_status().. So it's a work for some future day, I will not do it in parallel :)

I don't insist, but for me patches 2,4,5 only make sense as a whole, so, I'd merge them into one patch called "make block-copy APIs thread-safe". Otherwise, thread-safety comes only in last patch, and patches 2 and 4 are a kind of preparations that hard to review in separate.

Anyway, reviewing of such change is a walk through the whole file trying to understand, how much is it thread-safe now.
