[Qemu-devel] [RFC] qemu snapshot enchancement

[Wenchao Xia]

Hi,
  I am trying to enhancement qemu's snapshot functionality, and have
write a wiki draft on:
http://wiki.qemu.org/Features/VMSnapshotEnchancement
It mainly serves backup APP, the centric of it is:
1 fixing the vmstate size problem.
2 save vmstate lively for any type.
3 introduce new live snapshot mode, which offload qemu block function
to lower components, such as LVM2 or other software even hardware
accelerated one.
4 complete the picture of snapshots so they have similar or unified
API for block / vmstate / whole vm, and doc it.


  Please feel free to point out any problem you find or give
suggestion.
