This series intends to support dirty ring for live migration. The dirty
ring use discrete buffer to track dirty pages. For ARM64, the speciality
is to use backup bitmap to track dirty pages when there is no-running-vcpu
context. It's known that the backup bitmap needs to be synchronized when
KVM device "kvm-arm-gicv3" or "arm-its-kvm" has been enabled. The backup
bitmap is collected in the last stage of migration.
PATCH[1] Synchronize linux-headers for dirty ring
PATCH[2] Introduce indicator of the last stage migration and pass it
all the way down
PATCH[3] Synchronize the backup bitmap in the last stage of live migration
PATCH[4] Introduce helper kvm_dirty_ring_init() to enable the dirty ring
PATCH[5-6] Enable dirty ring for hw/arm/virt
RFCv1: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-arm/2023-02/msg00171.html
Testing
=======
(1) kvm-unit-tests/its-pending-migration and kvm-unit-tests/its-migration with
dirty ring or normal dirty page tracking mechanism. All test cases passed.
QEMU=./qemu.main/build/qemu-system-aarch64 ACCEL=kvm \
./its-pending-migration
QEMU=./qemu.main/build/qemu-system-aarch64 ACCEL=kvm \
./its-migration
QEMU=./qemu.main/build/qemu-system-aarch64 ACCEL=kvm,dirty-ring-size=65536 \
./its-pending-migration
QEMU=./qemu.main/build/qemu-system-aarch64 ACCEL=kvm,dirty-ring-size=65536 \
./its-migration
(2) Combinations of migration, post-copy migration, e1000e and virtio-net
devices. All test cases passed.
-netdev tap,id=net0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup,downscript=/etc/qemu-ifdown \
-device e1000e,bus=pcie.5,netdev=net0,mac=52:54:00:f1:26:a0
-netdev tap,id=vnet0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup,downscript=/etc/qemu-ifdown \
-device virtio-net-pci,bus=pcie.6,netdev=vnet0,mac=52:54:00:f1:26:b0
Changelog
=========
v1:
* Combine two patches into one PATCH[v1 2/6] for the last stage indicator
(Peter)
* Drop the secondary bitmap and use the original one directly
(Juan)
* Avoid "goto out" in helper kvm_dirty_ring_init()
(Juan)

synchronization
kvm: Synchronize the backup bitmap in the last stage
kvm: Add helper kvm_dirty_ring_init()
