[Kernel] Safe Thread Termination Support
We need a way to safely terminate guest threads running in Xenia. Termination while running guest code should be fairly easy to do (have guest threads check and see if they need to call a routine every now and then), but a problem arises when guest threads are running host code.
When a guest thread is running host code, it needs to (a) be able to be awakened from any waits it may be held in, and (b) must quickly return to guest code (or call a routine that we control).
I went back and checked older builds to see when this stopped working, and it appears that 6777ce6668fe9010b78b7bcf4e7365bfbc844ef0 was what broke saving savestates.
This is a specific error when the game does not see the connected hard drive. There should be a "dialogue" for selecting a storage device, but probably it is not completed in the emulator.
There some system messages and i think this not works on Xenia on current state
1 - Screenshot from Warrior Orochi 3 on Xenia (after any choose infinity loading)
other from x360 console

@Parovozik This issue is about save states, not saves. Unless you mean that save states don't work because xenia doesn't reconnect the hard drive once a save state is loaded.
"Xenia" does not display these system messages at all (and there are a lot of such games that, when launched for the first time, display this dialog). In rare cases, the some games then simply works "without saving", but usually the games simply goes into an endless wait (the answer from the system probably) but the emulator works (it does not crash and does not freeze) p.s. Oops, i understand now (states-saves) :face_with_head_bandage:
Has anybody looked into this recently? This issue will be a major obstacle in the feasibility of the new Qt-based UI.

I'm guessing not since your the last comment post-2018. This kinda sucks since it's obvious Xenia is the best 360 emulator out there but not being able to do Profiles and things like that really kill the ability to play most games.
Just refreshing 30 months later to see if there is something a debug save state needs to work.
