Description of Changes

This reapplies the patch from #3704, and fixes the issues that were causing it to deadlock.

The reason it was deadlocking was that it allowed for the following sequence of events:

  • SchedulerActor::handle_queued() begins mutable tx
  • ModuleHost::disconnect_client() submits call to call_reducer(tx: None)
  • scheduler submits call to call_reducer(tx: Some)
  • WasmModuleInstance::disconnect_client now has to try to take tx lock, but the scheduler's call_reducer already holds it and is behind it in the queue

So, I moved most of the logic from handle_queued back to being executed in the module worker thread, but kept the code in scheduler.rs so that it can all be reasoned about locally.

Fixes #3645. Should I uncomment the implementation of ExportFunctionForScheduledTable for F: Procedure now?

Expected complexity level and risk

2 - there's a chance that this patch hasn't fully fixed the deadlock issue from #3704, but I'm quite confident.

Testing

  • Manually verified that deadlock no longer occurs - previously, while true; do python -m smoketests schedule_reducer -k test_scheduled_table_subscription; done would freeze up in only 2 or 3 iterations, but now it can run for 10 minutes without issues.

Looks good, and I agree it should fix the deadlock. Just some small suggestions below.
