[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH v1 0/6] ppc/spapr: Fix migration of radix guests

[Bharata B Rao]

This patchset fixes the migration of sPAPR radix guests.

Changes in v1:
--------------
- Added two patches to fix generic savevm unregistration issues.
- HTAB savevm handlers are now registered/unregistered when HTAB
  is created/destroyed instead of doing this in CAS call (as in v0).

TODO:
- I have checks in spapr_post_load() to detect and fail the migration
  of radix guest to a host that doesn't support radix. However I couldn't
  test this as I am hitting some other unrelated migration failure
  when testing this path.
- I have tested may scenarios like
  - tcg hash->hash, radix->radix, hash->radix and radix->hash reboot
  - kvm hash reboot and migration
  - kvm radix reboot and migration
  However boot->reboot->migration of radix guest doesn't complete
  and this seems to be a different issue to be fixed.

v0: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-ppc/2017-05/msg00197.html
